2024 Hyundai Tucson Engine

On October 8, 2025, my car's tachometer started to dip and my car began to shake like it was going to stall as I approached a traffic light. The check engine light came on. I was close to my destination (about a 1/4 mile) so I drove to the parking lot and turned off the car. I started it again and the check engine light turned off and the car was running fine. On October 13, 2025, I took my car in for a routine oil change to a local repair shop and when they tried to reset the oil change reminder, the system would not work. Within a day, the entire computer system for the radio, warning systems, air conditioner/heat, etc, would not work. I took it to Burlington Hyundai on October 15, 2025 and they had to replace the CPU in the car. I got my car back on October 22, 2025. They said the check engine light did not come on again. It was covered under my warranty. I had my brakes replaced while they had the car out of convenience.

On Saturday January 31, 2026, I was driving and the tachometer started to go low like the car was going to stall out and the car began to shake. Then the check engine light came on. I was afraid to drive it, so I parked it in a church parking lot and had it towed to Burlington Hyundai on Sunday February 1, 2026. On Monday February 2, 2026 Burlington Hyundai said there was a problem with the spark plugs and that was why the check engine light came on. They replaced the spark plugs and it was covered under warranty. I got my car back on Tuesday February 3, 2026.

On Wednesday February 4, 2026 my car began to shake and shudder and almost stall out and the check engine light came on again. I had just gotten my car back from Burlington Hyundai the day before for the same problem. I drove it straight to the dealership for service. This time, they said it was a problem with the EGR system. They replaced some things and I got my car back on Friday February 13, 2026.
