Bought the 2018 model and there have been issues from day one.
The sun roof wouldnt close. This was a nightmare until the mechanic figured it out. There is some transmission issue.
Too many buttons , some work and some who knows. If I bought this car again probably wouldnt take all the options. Too much to go wrong.

Peeling Paint
2018 white Tucson has peeling paint! Hyundai knew this was a problem and has refused to do anything because of the 3 year warranty on the paint.
I will not buy another Hyundai product even though they continue to send texts offering great trade ins on a new Hyundai.

Sturdy and dependable
Ive driven this car 4 times cross-country, Boston to Phoenix. I typically get a routine maintenance done pre and post the trips which works out fine. The only issue I had was this year when one of the front night lights went out. Was unable to have it replaced on the way - and sometimes service can be iffy given I believe lack of personnel. So I used the brights when I needed night lights and that worked fine. When I did get them replaced during the routine "post" in Gilbert Arizona at Earnhardt Hyundai, the cost was much less than I anticipated and the work done well and speedily as usual. I did need to replace the tires this trip while there but with over 50K miles that was to be expected. Dependable transportation and this little baby can get up and go when asked!

I have nothing but praise for my 2018 Tucson. I love this car. No problems or repairs. Just routine service. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a midsized suv. Comfortable, great mileage, great looking and very dependable vehicle. I am very satisfied with my choice!

2018 Hyundai Tucson
I have had the pleasure of driving this vehicle since it has 8 miles on it. Only major issue was the proximity warning device quit functioning, the dealership made the necessary repairs and done deal. Gas mileage is excellent, comfort level is superb, in Arizona, where we live, it sometimes gets above 110 degrees, the engine, 1.6 litre, looses some off the line acceleration, but only minor. I will buy another similar Tucson once the whole COVID related chip issues resolve themselves.

Recommend Tucson
I'm enjoying my 2018 Tucson. the room in cabin is perfect all around. I didn't want to be uncomfortable with small spaces. the only draw back is I live in a gas station. which gas was cheaper and I might not worry about it but, gas it high and that's the only draw back.

2018 Hyundai Tucson Limited Ultimate
Reliable, roomy and full featured. Terrible transmission and cheap materials used on the interior. I bought this SUV new after owning 2 Honda's (Pilot and CRV). I am shopping for a new SUV within 6 months and I am not sure I will buy another one mainly because of the transmission. It's unpredictable, clunky and the engine loud when it finally kicks into acceleration. Not a smooth mobile.

2018 Tucson Limited Ultimate
The Tucson has many positives.....but.....crappy transmission that reminds me of the old Ford days (sloppy and clunky). The interior design is great, the materials used are cheap for a top of the line vehicle. Shopping for a new SUV in the next 6 months and I am honestly hesitant to consider Hyundai again.

Great automobile
This is one of the best Hyundai’s I’ve owned. This my fifth one. First suv from Hyundai. It matches up to all the other Hyundai sonatas that I previously owned. I highly recommend this car and all of the Hyundai line of automobiles.

Comfortable, stylish and fun to drive.
Comfortable, stylish and fun to drive. I really like my car. I have the Value Edition model. I love the low profile trim, the sunroof and the color ( I have the blue one). The only thing that I do not like is the speakers ( bad quality, I should have updated it when I bought it) and the transmission makes the car shake sometimes.

I don't enjoy driving this SUV at all
This was my first SUV from driving sports cars and sedans my whole life. I don't think this one is for me. Even though it's a turbo engine the dual clutch transmission delays the engagement and until it's in 3rd or 4th gear its not getting out of its own way. When I push the pedal I want a vehicle to immediately respond. Otherwise the vehicle is just OK. I don't think it's exceptional in any other categoy. I wouldn't buy this again.

Best vehicle ever!
I've been through a lot of cars and have been burned a couple of times in the past. I bought this one after a lot of research and several visits to other dealerships. The Hyundai dealership was extremely patient and helpful and let me take my time. I did a couple of test drives and bought the car at a very fair price. I've had it for a couple of years and have never been happier with a car. A very big plus is that the dealership service center for maintenance/upkeep/repair is fantastic. I bought the extended service plan (after studying it carefully), and it was well worth it. They really take care of my vehicle. (They even have good coffee!)

Quiet, good ride, excellent handling
The Tucson is a good looking, comfortable vehicle. Every day I’m more impressed with its overall quality. Had many Honda’s and Toyota’s. The Tucson is right up there with them and maybe even handle and brake better. The controls are easy and reachable and the satellite radio is first class. My only complaint is even with the larger of two engines it’s underpowered and slow to respond. Maybe a bad transmission match up….you have to put some foot into it to get a response. Though highway crusin is great.

95% perfect
I got a great value in this car. My main reason for getting the lowest trim was because of the cd player. And more than likely I will hold on to this suv longer than usual will be because of that lol. I'd say I'm 95% happy with this truck because it doesn't get warm quick enough in the winter AT ALL. But the AC works astonishingly fast in 90° heat. So in the winter I do drive with a blanket on my legs.
