#9 of 11 Re: I won't order a Tucson again [batman47] by joe97 Nov 28, 2007 (4:39 pm)
Replying to: batman47 (Nov 28, 2007 3:38 pm) I think people (all ages) nowadays are looking for a compact that can take them off road (soft off road) perhaps 3 months of the year. The other 9 months for commuting between homes, office, school and shopping.   Most (and I am talking about at least more than 80%) compact crossovers owners DO NOT go off road at all (soft or hard core)   Tucson has been doing fairy well, but has been overshadowed by its brother Santa Fe somewhat. And, since the price range of most entry crossovers (i.e. CR-V, Outlander, RAV4) is comparable to the Santa Fe, the Tucson gets much overlooked by perspective buyers.   That said, Hyundai should be releasing a new Tucson next year, and we should be getting more details soon. Like every other auto manf., Hyundai is spreading out the release of new models, and 2008 is expected to be another busy year:   Hyundai Genesis/BH (RWD luxury sedan) Hyundai Soanta facelift Hyundai Elantra Touring (i30) Hyundai Genesis/BK Coupe Hyundai Tucson and more...

Replying to: joe97 (Nov 28, 2007 4:39 pm)     That's good news. We like the Tucson's available 5-Speed Manual transmission, but the vehicle is a wee bit too small for our travel needs ... and the Santa Fe is larger than we an comfortably fit in the garage, especially it's width. A lightly upsized and restyled Tuscon would be great if they leave the option for a manual tranny intact. Call us nuts, but we still enjoy shifting gears.
#11 of 11 2007 Tucson Automatic Transmission by denism Feb 16, 2008 (6:38 am)
The transmission had to be replaced at 140 miles. We were told it would be a new transmission but it turned out to be a "remanufactured" one. They lied to us at the dealership and the follow up calls to the regional office were futile. The worst new car expeience ever. I certainly won't order a Tucson or any other Hyundai product again.
