Buying a used 2022 Hyundai Tucson? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2022 Tucson has 3 recalls in this group, covering water intrusion into tow hitch wiring, software that can disable lights, and roof molding detachment. The tow hitch campaign carries a park-outside instruction. NHTSA records 381 owner complaints, which are unverified reports, including 131 fuel/propulsion system, 115 engine, and 63 power train reports. Those propulsion-related categories stand out separately from the listed recall subjects and warrant attention in the vehicle's service history.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify tow hitch wiring recall status and applicable park-outside instructions.
- Confirm the lighting software recall repair and check exterior lights.
- Inspect roof molding and review engine, fuel-system, and powertrain repair records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
