Buying a used 2025 Hyundai Tucson? Check these 6 recalls first

6 NHTSA recalls · 279 owner complaints on file

Six recalls, the most of any year listed here: improperly tightened engine bolts, a vehicle that can shift out of Park, side curtain airbags possibly installed wrong, unexpected braking, a dashboard that can go blank, and a missing glove box airbag warning label. Unverified owner reports run the same direction — 279 NHTSA complaints, 148 of them forward collision avoidance, plus electrical system and service brakes, with 32 crashes, 1 fire and 19 injuries.

Before you buy

1. 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.
2. Ask for a dealer printout showing which of the six recalls are closed, especially the engine bolt and airbag ones.
3. Test that the vehicle holds in Park on an incline and ask if it has ever rolled or shifted out of Park.
4. Drive in traffic and ask whether the car has braked unexpectedly or thrown false collision warnings.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
