2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Forward collision avoidance Problems

“I was driving at a low speed (10-15mph) with a safe distance between me and the vehicle in front of me when the semi truck in front came to an abrupt stop. I reacted appropriately by pressing on the brake, however, my car accelerated into the vehicle instead. None of the emergency brake systems activated including the automatic emergency braking and front collision warning, which lead to my car driving into the semi-truck.”

“it happened again. While traveling at highway speeds behind a slow poke, 2 cars passed me on either side at nearly the same time. this caused the auto braking system to activate, abruptly slowing my car for now reason. Luckily no one was tailgating me at the time. This is the 4th time the car has braked for no good reason on the highway (see previous reports) and the 2nd time when 2 cars passed on either side at the same time. This is clearly a software bug that needs to be fixed!”

“My Tucson is applying Automatic Emergency Break without a reason. It happened to me 3 times in a week with my Tucson Hybrid 2024 NLine, it was scary and I was on freeway at 70+MPH and couldn't capture the warning as it popped out for only 3 sec. I see no cars around when this happened and when I checked few forums I see this as a common problem in Hyundai vehicles in recent times and feeling scared. I was lucky enough last week as there is not vehicle behind me when breaks applied automatically.”

“On Monday, 09/14/2026 at approximately 10:15am Mountain Time Utah State Route 36, North-bound. -- I was driving straight, approximately 60mph on dry road on a sunny day. There was no other traffic on the road either ahead, alongside, or behind me and no oncomming traffic. The Automatic Emergency Braking engaged, the emergency braking indicator flashed on the dashboard and the car slowed way down and then it just stopped engaging and the car rolled freely. I believe that the forward collision warning also sounded. NOTE-- this is not the first time this has happened to me. …”

“I was driving home on Christmas day 2023 in my 4 month old 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid. An hour into my 4 hour drive my car began making a low whump whump sound. No alerts or alarms came on my display to indicate anything was wrong. The noise was off and on for a couple miles. Suddenly my emergency brakes slammed on, my dash went red and the alarms went off. No one was in front of or around me. Had someone been behind me I would have been rear-ended. This was while I was going approximately 75-80. It could have caused a massive wreck had the freeway been congested. …”
