#45 of 74 Crack case of the remote key control by greatcars Mar 09, 2008 (3:14 pm)
The plastic case of the remote control is cracking and probably will broken soon. Do I have to go to dealers to replace that? Replies to this message: greatcars (Mar 10, 2008 6:21 am)

Replying to: greatcars (Mar 09, 2008 3:14 pm) It happened a couple of times that the remote key could not lock the car and I had to manually close each door. The battery may be low. Is this the sole reason?

Replying to: greatcars (Mar 20, 2008 10:17 pm) Where are you located that you can't find parts? I live in south-central PA and I just checked out the sites for the local Autozone and Advance Auto stores here and both show filters and batteries that fit my 05 Tucson and they have them in stock. Unless you live in some out of the way very rural area, I find it hard to believe you can't find aftermarket parts. Replies to this message: greatcars (Mar 21, 2008 2:37 pm)

Replying to: tenpin288 (Mar 21, 2008 4:56 am) I am in FL and the area is heavy populated. I had checked out pepboys, advance auto parts, warlmart and kmart and sears. No, I haven't found any. I think Tucson use some parts not very popular.
#50 of 74 Automatic Climate Control by tucson07 Apr 08, 2008 (8:28 am)
I've got an '07 Limited, 15,000 miles and LOVE it! Since new when I would change the temperature on the ACC system, each degree change would be accompanied by a "beep".(which although not particularly annoying I found unnecessary). Then several weeks ago I noticed that it doesn't "beep" anymore. The system functions perfectly but just no more "beeps" when I change the temp setting. I looked in the manual to see if there was a setting for this but there's no mention. I was wondering if anyone else with the ACC system has noticed this. Another thing while I'm on here, anyone else with the sunroof notice that when opened in the slide mode it stops about 6" shy of fully opening? I did the reset routine noted in the manual to be used after manually operating the roof with the crank but this changed nothing. These are both minor glitches and I do have to say that if my Tucson was a person I'd marry it!
#51 of 74 Tucson AC problems by rdillier Apr 17, 2008 (6:39 am)
We own a 2005 Tucson (First new auto for us) and love it generally. However, it's been in the dealer shop for two weeks trying to fix an air conditioning problem. Simply stated, after the AC runs for a while, it begins to "snow" inside the cabin, and then the AC shuts off. They've replaced everything, and called Hyundai USA and Korea about fixes, but the HQ says they've not heard of this problem. If they leave off the dash, the AC works fine. But when they reinstall the dash, the problem resurfaces. Any thoughts? Replies to this message: hyundaijoe (Jun 25, 2008 12:16 pm) jdyer79 (Jul 14, 2009 12:40 pm)
#53 of 74 MAJOR MELTDOWN 52k '06 by badams007 Apr 21, 2008 (7:21 am)
I'm starting to get paranoid !   I have had the following items replaced on warranty in the past 3 months:   Radio/stereo oxygen sensor catalytic converter (took 2 months to get it diagnosed)) alternator battery   I've also paid for a full brake job (which is probably about right)   No sooner did I get it back from the shop last week from the alternator death than it was leaking something... but of course when I went to the shop it did not drip for them, and they tried to tell me that the stuff I wiped off the pavement after it sat at work was from some prior vehicle.   Saturday morning, it boiled over and left me stranded out while I was bird watching.... 3+ hours to get a flatbed.... Managed to get a friend to take me to the dealership so I could get a loaner before they closed....   Is this a known series of problems ?   What else should I expect to go wrong ?   Any tips for getting customer service to to anything more than just fixing this thing 1,000 time over -   They are starting to sink some bucks into this thing, and because I have an extended warranty, there's still another 40k+ bumper to bumper to go !   -Beth the paranoid Replies to this message: badams007 (Apr 21, 2008 9:18 am)

Replying to: badams007 (Apr 21, 2008 7:21 am) Followup note....   They just called to report that the problem is that my click fan was not working and they are replacing it....   but that puts a lot more worries into my mind... radiator damage ? engine parts warped ?? gasket damage ??   PLEASE tell me if I am just being paranoid.   -Beth
