Hi, Im a tucson user, i just want to say, i love ford, i change my ford ranger 1998 for a hyundai tucson 2005 2 years ago and im very rgretful of doig this, i bought the car on cash, here in Ecuador that car cost 22 thousand dollars, doesnt come with airbags, first when i bought it, the right windshield was broken,i didnt notice it until i went to the freeway and hear an air likeage, so i went to the dealer and he said to me that they dont going to change it so they repair it,they repair it well. 1 year ago the steering gear begun to sound like an old cofee maker, so i went to the dealer again, and they said to me, that sound is normal??????, now the steering gear sound like an old diesel motor, now they said to me that i need to change it, i just want to say that my old ranger never bother me like that, i never spend so much money in repairing it, so im going to sell that piece of crap and buy a ford, i will never buy a hyundai again.

My 2007 Tucson is in the shop right now for the third time since early February with the same electrical problem. I have just under 3,900 miles on this vehicle that I purchased in late October, 2006. The first time they told me I had a defective battery and they replaced it. Twenty days later, when I had it towed in for the second time with the same problem (no electrical power), they said they found a loose connection. On Thursday, April 26 I had to have it towed in again with the same problem. They called me today to tell me that while they could find nothing wrong with it, and had no idea why this was happening, their tech center told them to install a heavier duty battery, which they've had to order. I was told by the serice advisor that they still have no idea what the problem is. As much as I really love this vehicle, it's gotten to a point now where I don't trust it. If it happens one more time I intend to contact the Ohio attorney general's office about invoking the state's Lemon Law.

I just test drove a 07 v6 Tucson It road very nicely. I drive around 32,000 mniles per year. I read in the service manual that the timing belt has to be changed at 60,000 miles. I think that is crazy to have to go through that expense every 60,000 miles. My Forester did not have to have this done till 105,000 miles. If you do not do it and it breaks your 100,000 mile warrenty is void. Poor design from Hyundai
