Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)Both Headlights suddenly became very dim WHILE I WAS DRIVING. On normal lights there is almost no light beam coming out at all, and on bright lights there is slightly more lighting, but there is also what looks to be a large shadow across the light beams. I’ve had it checked and there are NO bulbs burnt out.
Car uses quart 1/2 for 300miles gives no warning of lo oil level . This will lead to engine failure while driving.Dealer acknowledges consumption issues offers combustion maintenance at customer expense but service technician says save money as service doesn’t work.
MY 2019 HYUNDAI TUCSON LIMITED MODEL HAS OBSTRUCTED ILLUMINATION FROM THE HEADLIGHTS. IF I SHINE MY HEADLIGHTS ON THE GARAGE WALL IN FRONT OF ME I WILL SEE A HALF MOON SHADOW OVER EACH HEADLIGHT. WHILE DRIVING ON DARK COUNTRY ROADS AT NIGHT AROUND A CURVE YOU WILL SEE TWO SHADOWS OUT IN FRONT OF YOU. AS YOU COME OUT OF THE CURVE THOSE SHADOWS BECOME ONE TRIANGULAR SHADOW OUT IN FRONT OF YOU. IT IS HARD TO DETERMINE IF THIS IS A PERSON, ANIMAL OR THE HEADLIGHT SHADOW. ALSO, WHEN THERE IS A DIP IN THE ROAD THE ILLUMINATION IS DECREASED TO MAYBE 40 FEET IN FRONT OF YOU. SOMETIMES IT JUST LOOKS LIKE A DARK BAND IN FRONT OF YOU. YOU NEVER HAVE A CLEAR VIEW, ALWAYS A SHADOW. IN TOWN AT NIGHT WITH LIGHT AROUND YOU DON'T NOTICE THE SHADOWS AS MUCH. THIS IS DANGEROUS TO HAVE SUCH AN OBSTRUCTED VIEW AND TO SOMETIMES ALMOST WANT TO FOLLOW THE MOVEMENT OF THE SHADOWS INSTEAD OF THE ROAD. I DRIVE A LOT AT NIGHT ON DARK COUNTRY ROADS AND ALWAYS ON THE LOOK OUT FOR AN ANIMAL. IF YOU SHINE YOUR LIGHTS ON BRIGHT IT IS NOT AS BAD, BUT YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR BRIGHTS ON ALL THE TIME. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY JUST SAY IT'S IN THE DESIGN. IT MAY BE IN THE DESIGN, BUT THE DESIGN IS DANGEROUS. WHO IS GOING TO STEP UP TO PROTECT THE CONSUMER. I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN A CAR WITH SUCH POOR ILLUMINATION. I FEEL VERY NERVOUS AND UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT. LOVE THE CAR IN THE DAY. THANKFULLY, I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT, BUT FEEL THAT SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I HAD TO SELECT A DATE THIS HAPPENED BUT IT IS CONTINUOUS. I BOUGHT THE CAR 8/30/19, BUT DIDN'T DRIVE AT NIGHT UNTIL 9/5/19,
