2012 Hyundai Tucson Vehicle speed control Problems

“I pushed on the gas to accelerate and nothing happened except the rpms spiked to around 5-6k and the engine sounded as if I were in neutral and revving it up aggressively. This has subsequently happened dozens of times when traveling between 30 and 65 MPH. It is scary, especially when I need to accelerate, say in a passing situation or when traveling to get out of the way. I've taken the vehicle to Hyundai (sheppard in eugene/springfield, or) twice for this issue. …”

“I received the recall of my 2012 Hyundai tuscon. As a precaution I took it to the dealership to address the recall 181 and an electrical issue I had with the power windows. I visited the dealer two weeks apart and sat at the dealership for more than 5 hours with the second visit being for 8 hours. I was told something was leaking in steering and that had tl be fixed. I left with my car and approximately 8 days later there was a clicking and clanking aound coming from the engine, ive never heard the sound, yet on my paperwork it stated I complained about the sound, which I never did. …”

“I own a Hyundai Tucson 2012. On december 31, 2012, we took the vehicle to the dealership for regular maintenance and reported that we have experienced several instances of sudden unintended acceleration (sua) (I.e., the RPM raced up to 4,000 rpms when at idle and accelerator was not pressed). The dealership could not duplicate/verify concern. On november 10, 2013, again we expressed the dealership the same concern; however, we received the same response as on december 31, 2012. …”

“I should start by stating that this has been an ongoing issue with this vehicle since I got it last year. At random times, while driving, my vehicle will not allow me to go above 2500k rpms, even with the gas pedal fully depressed. This may happen while I am on a slow road or, as today, when I am on the highway. It is a safety concern because I will need to merge onto the highway or speed up for some other reason and suddenly I have no power. I will be going 30mph and entering a 70mph roadway. The only way to stop this is to pull over, turn the vehicle off, and then turn it back on. …”

“Vehicle intermittently does not accelerate from a stop, often looses power. This can be dangerous if pulling out into traffic. Transmission issues have been addressed with other years, but this issue has not been addressed with earlier model years. While turning into traffic, vehicle did not accelerate as expected almost cause it an accident. Took vehicle to Hyundai for service, and the problem could not be duplicated at the time, instead was told to 'change transmission fluid, that may help' there have been multiple other Tucson's with the same issue. Vehicle continues to have same issues.”
