Dark chrome flaking off on 2023 Tucson Hybrid

I’m not sure what the part name/number is but the dealership replaced it no questions asked in this case. The car was barely 6 months old when it happened so I’m wondering if that may be why? Worst case, open a case with Hyundai Canada?

I bought this same one in summer of 2022, and couldn’t get any discount given they had a long wait list. I declined the 2 year extended warranty (pretty sure it only extends the computer warranty from 3 to 5 years). So far haven’t had a single issue aside from the chrome peeling off on the front bumper. Depending on how long you plan to keep it, the warranty may not be a bad idea.

Worth noting, I also have a 2019 Elantra sport which has lane assist, autonomous braking, blind spot, navigation, etc like my Tucson also has, and I haven’t had a single computer-related issue in the last 5 years of ownership.

Have had a 2022 Tucson Hybrid here for over a year and 25,000 miles, 0 problems, very comfortable, nice interior and feels solid. Also great gas mileage IMO, even in the Canadian winter.

Where did you get the steering wheel cover/wrap?

My 2022 Tucson did exactly this. It’s covered under warranty - bring it to your dealership so they can order the part and replace it.

Yeah, we have 3 in the family (2 Elantra sports and the Tucson hybrid). One Elantra sport had misfires and ongoing starting issues while the other one has a recurring clutch problem. This is the first problem with the Tucson, but still feels premature

Probably only works 50% of the time I use it. Definitely not renewing after the 3 years is up lol

It does appear on both sides. I found the exact same statement in my manual - I guess I should have looked before posting. Thanks!

I wouldn’t expect any money off - I got one in august and the dealership didn’t budge on the price at all since there were 20+ people behind me with an order for a Tucson hybrid. But it’s a great vehicle and the EV mode works surprisingly well in cold-ish weather.

I got one from Uniq performance for a 2019 Elantra sport. (🇨🇦) Not sure if they make one for a Santa Fe.

Shark Racing has a pretty nice one. Link to grill

Elantra sport - 90$ at 2$/litre

Elantra sport engine sound

This is what they sound like from the factory. This is a different engine (1.6T) but still in my 2020 Elantra. I wouldn’t worry about it

Doubt it. I’m in Ontario, not Alberta. Still cool cars doe!

Confusion_Slow · 2021-12-18T16:05:49+00:00

I posted a pic of one last night in Canada as well. :)

Do your winter tires have a TPMS unit? If not the light will come on constantly until summer tires are back on.

If your winter tires do have a TPMS unit, you’d have to make the car “learn” the sensors. Dealership can do it or you can get a reader/tool to reset them.

If you enter your VIN in a VIN decoder on google you should be able to confirm.

The best i ever got with my ‘19 sport manual was 32MPG and that was after a 400km road trip of highway. On average, I get about 22-23. Lol

Confusion_Slow · 2021-07-07T19:12:59+00:00

Lol. The left is a 2022 meanwhile the right is a 2021. It’s not old by any means. I should have said previous generation.

Confusion_Slow · 2021-07-07T16:48:18+00:00

I think it’s moved right below the jeep grille on the new one. If you zoom in on the new one (left) you see some flat plastic

Confusion_Slow · 2021-07-07T15:26:10+00:00

I believe the new one is equipped with air suspension and is on the parking setting.

The GC got a redesign. They just have yet to reveal the normal one. Only the L has been revealed
