Brand new 2009 Tucson, driving it home from the dealership and it did exactly as described, stalled at a stop sign. Car is still at the dealership 24 hours now with them completely unable to figure out what is wrong. The diagnostic computer is getting nothing from the control unit, even after they swapped out units from other Tucsons on the lot.

Bringing our 2009 Tucson home from the purchase, it did exactly as you described. I had drove a deliberate 55 mph home from dealer, a distance of under 10 miles. First stop sign after exit from the hwy, it did the sputter/stall/not start thing. Had to shut it down and restart before it recovered.
Took it back to dealer and they are (still at the time of this writing) unable to get any information out of the control unit (diagnostic computer is completely blank when hooked up to unit). They swapped out control units but problem remains of no info coming out.

I am having similar problems with my 2005 tuscon 6cylinder automatic. The problem started after I changed the battery and the sparkplugs and wires. Incidently one of the mechanics that looked at it told me it did'nt have a gas filter. The dealers told us it needed a new computer chip. For about 3500 dollars. I have to believe it has something to do with the tuneup and new battery. Did anyone on this thread every get this issue resolved?
