What's Wrong with the Hyundai Tucson on Everyman Driver

so what's wrong with the Hyundai Tucson when it comes to reliability it's considered above average the average annual repair costs or just over 400 bucks so it's a pretty reliable and dependable vehicle according to our friends over at repairpal.com these are three most common Hyundai Tucson problems reported by their owners the most common Tucson problem is an illuminated check engine light from a transmission shifting issue typically the cause of this issue is the failure of the speed sensors in the transmission and it's a simple fix for the speed sensors are easy to replace and they don't cost that much the second most frequent issue reported by owners of their Tucson is a defect in the airbag control module with the defect there is a greater risk of the passenger side airbag incorrectly deploying during a car accident because of this the airbag control module must be replaced and for this issue Hyundai issued two recalls for certain model years of the Tucson between 2005 and 2009 as well as a 13-14 and 2016 and like most recalls Hyundai should cover the cost of the airbag control module replacement the third and final common problem reported by their owners of the Tucson is an odd one for models with a multimedia navigation system the sound suddenly stops whether it's when playing the radio CD player navigation system or during phone calls the sound just abruptly stops fortunately the no sound issue is easy to address and typically doesn't require one to take the vehicle to a service center the cause of the problem is a software glitch which can be resolved with a hard reset to do the hard reset disconnect the negative battery terminal wait around 15 minutes and then reconnect the terminal after that the sound should come back on so what is the true cost of a Hyundai Tucson glad you asked here are the depreciation resale value maintenance and fuel cost numbers for you if you plan on owning a Tucson anytime soon a Hyundai Tucson will depreciate in value by 13 almost 14 000 after five years of course this is something that's difficult to avoid but it can be managed depreciation is the difference between the original sales price and what the vehicle will be worth in the future when new a typically equipped Tucson sells for Just Around thirty thousand six hundred on average after five years of depreciation the average residual value will be sixteen thousand eight hundred and this represents the vehicle's retail market price trading and private sale prices will likely be lower this chart here shows the expected appreciation for the next 10 years on a Tucson these results are for vehicles in good condition averaging 12 000 miles per year again assuming a selling price new at just over thirty thousand dollars speaking of
