“Rear subframe of my 2007 Hyundai Tucson rusted through. The rear subframe was treated for rust in march 2017. October 2019 the rear subframe rusted to the point of not passing inspection. Considering this is a known issue with other Hyundai models, Hyundai wouldn't stand by their safety awards and help me with this because my car was not part of any recall pertaining to rear subframes rusting.”
NHTSA complaint #11280391, filed 2019-11, 143,000 miles“Complete rusting out of rear subframe assembly and attached components that resulted in failure of this component to allow me to maintain proper of vehicle. The rear end of my Tucson began to sway violently. I searched the internet for this issue and saw that Hyundai did have a recall for the rust out of this component on certain vehicle and that other Tucson owners have had this issue. I took it to a Hyundai dealership, they submitted pictures and an estimate to Hyundai. Hyundai refuses to repair the rear suspension. They know this is an issue with these components during these years.”
NHTSA complaint #11241272, filed 2019-08, 159,090 miles“The rear passenger control arm broke off of the subframe due to severe corrosion despite Hyundai applying a corrosion preventative under recall 17-01-013 on 12/1/2015. During all service work following the preventative in 2015, corrosion was never brought up as a concern by the dealership (we have all service records since date of initial purchase). Thankfully we had just reached our destination and were parking the car when the failure happened. Had the part failed 5 minutes earlier, we would have been on the highway at over 60mph and could have been seriously injured or worse. …”
NHTSA complaint #11610450, filed 2024-08“Rear subframe has excessive corrosion which lead to a a lower control arm failure. In short the control arm bracket on the subframe rusted away and the control arm fell off. My wife could have been killed. It seems that this same issue pertains to several Tuscons. Car is sitting on transport trailer currently.”
