Description of the problem | Purchased a 2016 tuscon with 35 miles on it on may 2016. Within 3 months my passenger door would not open after being unlocked. This was corrected and had no problems. Within the last 2 months of this year, both of my rear doors are having problems, the passenger side buzzes when the lock , the driver side passenger door (which is the big issue) has totally quit opening, it unlocks but will not open from the inside or out. When i told the service man at the hyundai dealership, he said "that they see a lot of tuscons with door issues" and that it will not be cheap. I started looking on the internet and there are people complaining that the doors just stop working and that it is due to bad workmanship on hyundai part. I feel this is a safety issue because if the door does not open and there was a issue that passengers needed to get out in a hurry they could not. |
