Hyundai Tucson Plug-in Hybrid

""1) After brief bank stop, car remained on in Drive bet unable to move in drive or reverse. Wrecker hauled it to dealer. 2) some internal electronic component stopped working, dealer kept it for ove4 a month but provid3d a loaner.""

"The key fob and Hyundai app for the Tucson do not quickly connect to the vehicle to update status or status is not reflected correctly. The problem existed from the time we bought the vehicle and it still persists."

""Tucson PHEV has a repetitive, unpredictable issue with acceleration: it occasionally fails to respond to the accelerator pedal (this has happened about 6 times since I purchased the car). This usually occurs when accelerating from a complete stop. I've had the car checked at a Hyundai dealership and they have found no code issues and have been unable to duplicate the issue during a short test drive. Other Tucson owners have reported the same issue on online forums, however, it seems to be relatively rare (and did not show up in any of the reviews I read prior to purchase).""

"Charge didnt complete and the cable was still locked in the vehicle port. Other problems include the a/c not working"

"The charging cycle did not complete and the cable remained locked in the port until I manually released it. This problem also caused the a/c to malfunction. The vehicle is still in the shop its been two weeks and they havent fixed it"

""Drove vehicle for several hours to a hotel and turned off. After 45 minutes re-entered vehicle and turned vehicle on to drive somewhere. Transmission shifted to R (pushbutton), but car flashed R in dash with some issue. Pressing gas did not move vehicle even though it was in R. Could not shift vehicle to P. Able to shift vehicle to N, but then stuck in N. Car would not turn off, would only remain in ACC. Vehicle enforces being in P when turning off or starting, so car was stuck in ACC. Was going to disconnect the starting battery in trunk, but did not have tools. Did quick internet research and found others with same issue across other Hyundai vehicles (Palisade, etc). Some said disconnecting starter battery would work (no tools). One indicated pulling "eshift2" fuse in engine fuse block would reset shifter and allow vehicle to turn off. This solution worked. Was able to shut off vehicle and restart it. Shifting then worked without problem. Posters all indicated that Hyundai dealers said the starting battery level was low and charged customers who were in warranty for diagnosis and battery replacement. But this condition could have been from being stuck in ACC. I can confirm the vehicle had been driving for several hours, so the starting battery should not have been drained 45 minutes later. We never had any further issues that trip. When we returned home I put the battery on a charger just in case. I also added the Hyundai Bluelink integration to Home Assistant, which monitors the starting battery level. I was able to see that the starting battery would tend to decrease over time to as low as 60%. This with the car being driven 24+ miles every day and being charged via a level 2 EV charger every night. When the battery started getting below 70% I would add it to the charger again. Eventually I discovered that if I lower the charging rate of our EV charger from 48A (the Tuscon only used 30A of 48A) down to 10A, the starting battery would charge up to the 90% range every night. The vehicle now charges in about 6 hours instead of 2, but that is fine for overnight and it keeps the starting battery health in good order. I will also add that a few days prior to our shifting incident, after starting the vehicle, backing out of the driveway, and shifting to D, pressing the gas would not move the vehicle forward. Shifting back to R caused a very loud clunk, but put the vehicle into gear. Switching back to D, the vehicle moved forward, but something was clearly slipping. I switched to P, turned off the vehicle and restarted. That fixed the problem. My wife had this same issue a couple days before. This seems like an issue with faulty starting battery charge management that causes a low voltage condition shortly after starting that impacts the electronic shifter. This can cause motorists to get stranded with their vehicle in N and the ignition in ACC... further draining it.""

"Quirky shift, occurs intermittently when at low (2-3 mph) speed and I want to accelerate. Car hesitates for a second-- wonder if it's actively up or downshifting during that moment."
