2012 Tucson
Most trouble free vehicle we have ever owned. Very economical. There is plenty of room for cargo, and fun to drive. Hyundai will definitely be on the too of our list when it’s time for another new one.

Tucson Limited (2012)
The Tucson Limited is a great car. It has all the bells and whistles one needs in order to feel at the top of your game. I would suggest it to anyone who may be interested in the choices available.

Hyundai Tucson great vehicle
I love my Tucson and plan to keep it forever. It is roomy and handles road trips extremely well. It's been a great car and still looks new. I recently had new headlights installed per my request. My new neighbor that it was a brand new car. People ask me how I like my car. My response is "I LOVE IT!"

2012 Hyundai Tuscon
Overall, I have enjoyed owning and driving my 2012 Tuscon. It has been very dependable, minimal costs for servicing. Pretty econical on gas and abput 21 mpg on gas mileage. The Hyundai brand has impressed me in the Tucson department as I bought it new 9 years ago.
Recommended
Pros
Higher from ground. Ease of steering. Comfortable inside. Nonfabric seats with breathable front seats. Easy to keep interior clean. Exterior paint has stayed durable and looks like new.

Cons
Should have come with back up camera due to style of back of suv.
Side mirrors should be automatically collapsible and manuel.
Do not put fabric upholstery in SUV's!! It makes no sense!!!

Love My Tucson!
Love my Tucson! I have a 2012 Limited AWD PZEV with a lot of miles on it - still runs like a dream and looks great so I am keeping it as long as I can (of course, took care of it religiously throughout the years). Plan to buy another one when it is time! Mom has a 2016 Limited SE AWD and Dad has a 2018 Santa Fe Ultimate so we are a happy Hyundai family!

Hyundai Tucson great vehicle
I chose my beautiful blue Hyundai Tucson in 2012, bought it brand new. I still get tons of compliments on the beautiful color of this vehicle. My Tuscon has been great for long road trips and commuting to work and in town traveling as well. This vehicle is very roomy, especially with the back seats down. I haul tons of donation items to the thrift store in each trip. It is super comfortable to drive and sit in, both front and back seats. It's the perfect height for someone with arthritis to get into the car and out of the car easily. I always wanted a vehicle that sat higher above the road than the average car. I am totally happy with it and plan to keep it forever even though it's tempting to want to buy another brand new. This is the perfect car for my retirement days now. I recommend it to everyone.
Recommended
Pros
Perfect height for getting into and out of the vehicle easily. Plenty of leg room in the front seats and very comfortable seating in the back seats. I love the feature of being able to put the back seats down allowing plenty of room for hauling furniture or other items when needed. Great gas mileage, easy to drive.

Cons
My Tucson did not come with indoor and outdoor temperature gauge however it did come with Sirius radio and bluetooth so I figured that's a good trade off.
It does not have a back up mirror. I don't need it. I can parallel park and back up into a parking space with just my mirrors.

Love this car
I brought her brand new 8 years ago & I am still in loooovvvvee with her. It runs quiet & smooth. The only problem I have is the tire pressure light, when the temperature drops it comes on. When I’m in the market for a new vehicle it will definitely be another Tucson..

Two recoils and-not gas reimbursement
In overall, this car has been performed okay.
It keeps making new noises and the dealers’ mechanics can’t find it why.
When I bought the car, the company promised to do some gas reimbursement as long I owned the car since they made a mistake with their calculation. They only help me for that for a couple years.
No buying more cars to this company and not recommending it to anyone either.

Road Trip #2
I have taken the 2012 Hyundai Tucson on 2 different road trips, both over 1,000 + miles. It was so comfortable and easy to handle. While in Slovakia last Sept, I was lucky to ride in a 2019 Hyundai Tucson, same thing, road over Slovakia in comfort.

Good car for the right customer
This car has performed well. Drives and handles well. Mileage is a disappointment but mfr. provides supplemental subsidy. For me, should have gotten the bigger brother to the Tucson cuz this one is just a bit small for us but that's not the car's fault. I made the wrong choice. This car has met mfr. claims and served us well.

Great driving car. Super on the highway and in town. Fantastic turning radius. On the down side... the buttons on the drivers door for the windows are flimsy/cheap. I have two that have broken on windows that I rarely use. The covering on the drivers door armrest and the steering wheel have cracked and have dents in them from I have no idea what.. My steering wheel looks like it has been whipped by a chain, So the interior material is cheap but as a vehicle t get you around it is great!

It’s fine
I have had electrical issues of some sort since I brought the car home. If my car sits for more then two days then the battery is dead upon my return. I pointed it out to the dealership while still under warranty and they could not find it. It is also annoying that you can not get a service manual to help you repair things on your own.

I own a 2012 Hyundai Tucson . I bought my first Hyundai is 1986. I bought my second Hyundai
In 2005. That Hyundai was totaled in an accident when a guy rear ended me while I was stopped at a stop light. He was going 50 MPH when he hit me.
All of the Hyundai’s I have bought were new. I have found Hyundai’s to be very reliable cars. Dependable. Affordable. I am 79 years old. I probably will not get another car,,,,,,but if I do, it will be a Hyundai.

Unknown noise
This Tucson Hyundai 2012 has been good in overall, however it has been called for two Recalls and it has a front noise while is being driven that their mechanics haven’t able to find out and resolve it.
So, I won’t get more cars from them.
