CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2016 Tucson comes with a dual-clutch, 7-speed transmission. But Hyundai forgot to tell you about one key phrase – zero-move. That's right, an alarming number of owners have said their SUV wouldn't accelerate after a stop.

Turns out that's because the transmission's application logic has been stumbling all over itself. Hyundai recalled the issue in September 2016, but it's difficult to say if owners are out-of-the-woods, or if this is just a sign of things to come.

The back hatch doesn't pop open with the fob. Super annoying when you have your hands full, in the rain, with a noisy toddler and you just want to open the flipping door! But the fob doesn't work... Instead you run your hand along the edge hoping to find that smooth button that will open the hatch.
