We just bought a 2007 Tucson Saturday May 12, yesterday on May 13 I was driving and began to smell gasoline. It kept getting stronger and stronger so I turned off the a/c and rolled windows down. A person in another vehicle came up beside me a told me I was losing gas all the way down the high way. I pulled over and parked and gas was pouring out from under the vehicle. After it stopped pouring out it continued to drip, but if I tried to turn on the accessory to roll up windows it would start pouring out again. The fire dept ( I had to call them or road side assistant would not send a wrecker to tow) undid the relay for the fuel pump, but it was still leaking when it was loaded on the flatbed. Has anyone else experienced this? This vehicle only has 134 miles on it!

i am now getting 20-22mpg around town, here in rural Pa. i was getting 18-20 previously, don't ask me why it has improved? but, I do have over 40k miles on the odometer now. Also, the weather here has been mild between 60-85* Fahrenheit. This is also awhile after a dealer oil change with ordinary Mobil 5-30W oil, not synthetic, or synthetic blend, as I usually use? Haven't tried any long distance hiway drives lately, but if I get 25plus mpg then, I'll shut up. The only mod I've had for quite awhile is a drop in K&N air filter. 2005 Tucson LX V6 4WD Auto Nautical blue |

I am looking to get an '07 SE, 4WD. Wanted to get some owner's thoughts and opinions on their Tucsons... Board has been dead for awhile. Anyone used theirs off-road? I.e. moderately deep/loose sand beaches? Anyone from NC here?

Replying to: skeeterfish1 (Apr 27, 2007 6:01 pm) had only 8500 miles. I have had it in the shop 10 times now and it is back there again for some kind of electrical problem. If I don't drive it every day, on the third day it is dead. they replaced the battery and some module but they can not find the problem. I have been in touch with the Hyundai corp. reg. this. I think it is a lemon and I have noticed that other tuscon owners are having this problem. I am in agreement for a recall. Thanks a frustrated Tuscon owner!
