No, they weren't going to refund her anything, and they wanted her to pay them $500.00. They said that the way they calculated everything, my mom would owe them $500..So she would be out the car, out $500 cash from her pocket, and no money to use as a down payment on another car. She can't afford that..It just doesn't seem right..

I think we're (the readers) missing something here. Let your lawyer do his job and let us know how it goes. Good luck!

That's what the lawyer worked out with Hyundai. Then the lawyer was let go and then his replacement quit, and then his replacement left.
Basically we are now stuck with a crap car.. and no lawyer.

I hope bucster47 sees this message to reply. What was the cause of your ESC problem? I have a 2005 KIA Sportage with the same problem. My "Traction Off" light would come on intermittently in hot weather and never in the winter. It also never came on when the dealer checked it out. I plan on driving to the dealer when it happens again and let them check the error code while the light is on. I'm in Iraq at the moment and my wife says she hasn't seen the light come on this summer. It's probably a traction sensor but I started wondering if the traction control worked fine and perhaps it's actually a faulty dash light? Once again, it never came on except in hot weather.

Working just off of product cycle lengths, a complete redesign is due in a year or two, so we're looking at the '09 or '10 model-year. So far, there haven't been any prototypes spotted testing, so it's likely the latter. Because nothing has been seen or officially announced about the vehicle, it's next to impossible to determine just what we'll get. It will stay car-based, and probably remain FWD/AWD, but we may, for the first time, get a diesel engine choice in the US.
Below I've added an A3-based chop. There's nothing authoritative about the design, of course, but I thought it might be fun to post.

I bought a Tucson 07 in January. Caught fire recently. The investigator claimed that "possible cause" of fire could have been debris caught by the car before parking. Maybe it picked up a paper bag or tumbleweed on the road.
And is listing the official cause as such. However is not ruling out fuel return line. It was burned beyond inspection. The Tucson is repairable according to Hyundai. It's just that they will not take the responsibility of admitting that the Tucson has a problem. Be careful. I have not yet begun to fight.

My Tucson that is 1&1/2 years has been giving me engine trouble. First the dealers thought the head gasket went bad but now they're thinking that the cylinder head is cracked. They've ordered the replacement part but should I be having these problems with a vehicle under 3years old?

No, you should not be having problems; however, no make of vehicle is always 100% perfect. This could happen to any vehicle, Toyota, Ford, Chevrolet, Honda...whoever. As long as you are covered by the warranty, I am hoping your problem will be taken care of. Are they giving you a loaner???

Warranty only for 1 year. I am currently using a loaner they gave me but it's a far cry from what I was accustom to driving.
Even if not under warranty I would think they I should not bear the full cost of the repairs.
And I was wondering if anyone else has had that type of problem with their Tucson before.

I am the guy that did a report about the Tucson V6 LX 30K miles USA & Central American ans South America). Now I am in Europe travelling through the Alps, Ukrania, Rumania and Bulgary.
I will report at the end of this month all the good things of this Tucson with field experience. I have attended the Frankfurt Car Show (Germany)and I saw the Tiguan. The "Track and Field model" is for off road driving with a offroad lock and its underframe is fully protected. Turbo Engine (Diesel and Petrol).
In my report I will report on what I would like to see in a new Tucson version (year 2008-2009)to beat the competition in price and quality and all the goodies that this car has showm me so far.
