  • Rattle and Shake - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    I loved my car from day one. It never got the gas mileage they swear by, but I still loved it. I purchased it May 2010 and ran the A/C all summer with no problems. After 10 months, the entire car would shake and rattle when the A/C was on. It was like nothing I had ever felt. I had to take it 3 times before they would finally speak to the factory rep. After 5 days, they finally determined the A/C condenser was warped. Its still in the shop today.

    I love driving my hyundai...enjoy the smoothness of acceleration,transmission and turning radius....the color red and the upholstrycoche Premium sound system is not...a great disappointment....Blutooth not so great....I keep my cars for 10 yrs but this baby may see a new owner much sooner due to a crummy air- conditioning system....its slow to start and i dont believe it will cool our summer days--hasnt done well now in the spring...gas mileage at 24 mpg with 10 percent city90 highway long trip did make it to 28mpg

  • Wheres the great gas mileage? - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    Okay, definitely a sharp looking little SUV- HOWEVER, like many others, I am hugely disappointed in the gas mileage, have seen my city mileage dip into the 16s, and now its hovering in the 17 mpg range (drive in the ECO mode 98% of the time)- not even close to the advertised range. It is a cool looking, fun little car to drive, but would not have bought it if I had known the mileage numbers would be so far off. I traded in a Murano for the Tucson, hoping to get great gas mileage in a stylish smaller car- but the mileage is worse then the Muranos so far. Whats up, Hyundai?

  • Stiff and loud - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    This car for the $27k msrp is suprisingly loud and uncomfortable. You can feel every crack in the road and the ride feels as if the car had no suspension. You have to pretty much yell to be heard by your passengers on decent quality concrete pavement.

  • Just Right - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    I wanted a compact suv/crossover with good fuel economy. Overall I am very happy with the car so far, thanks to its compact dimensions its easy to park and maneuver on busy San Francisco streets. Its spacious compared to my old Honda Civic. I opted for the pano moon roof and GPS which are great additions, they make the car feel higher end. I feel the car has adequate power, but than again I am happy to compromise power for the sake of better fuel economy. The styling is great, the car feels solid, and the warranty is best in class. I also looked at the Honda CR-V and Nissan Rouge, but I felt the Tuscon would be a better car for me.

  • Noisy engine - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    Very good design, both outside and inside of the car. Feels a little on the smaller side inside, not too much room in the back but OK. Very good dashboard layout. Visibility is OK but Ive seen better. Ont the downside, the engine is too noisy to my taste. The power is sufficient for this small vehicle but engine noise is intrusive. Im more used to Buick and Lexus-type serenity.

  • Disappointed in MPG and temp gauge - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    For the most part I love the looks of the car inside and out. It is fun to drive but is a little rough and noisy. Wish they would have put 17 inch wheels instead of 18 on the Limited. Im still waiting for the good mileage to kick in. Dealer says wait for 5K then it will, geez, really? The best Ive had is 24 on freeway going flat and straight. In hind sight I would have paid a little more for a Honda CR-V.

  • Great Car, but VERY small gas tank! - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON

    Overall very happy with this car! Its just the right size for us and looks great.

  • A mixed bag - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    Weve been driving this vehicle now for 9 months. My wife loves it (it is primarily her car) but Im not so sure. What I like: An incredibly short turning radius. The look of the vehicle, both inside and out. All of the extras at a reasonable price (heated leather seats, bluetooth, etc). What I dont like: The ride is really rough, much rougher than my Nissan Maxima or even my beat up old pickup. You will feel every bump on the road. Most annoying: The gas mileage weve been getting isnt even close to the EPA rating. Low teens in town, low 20s on the highway. I dont drive like a maniac (anymore). If I pushed it hard Id hate to think how bad the mpg would be...

  • Disappointed customer - 2010 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    The paint - chipped less than a month (exactly 28 days). Im so disappointed. The dealership repair was poor- they just touch up with paint which was so obvious to see because its not the same color as the original and the touch up paint comes off, also the original paint continues to peel. The in charged from dealer repair told me that they will paint the car in the body shop. I cant believe it. A new car repainted? For me they should change that part not just painting it because its brand new. Now, Im planning to talk to the manager, missing my work and hoping for the best. Was so excited I bought my new car, then less than a month so disappointed. How I wish i can undo everything.
