Vibrating Brakes at 10K miles, Connectivity Issues with Apple Car Play
This is my second Hyundai Tucson. My first one was a 2022 model. At around 10,000 miles, I noted that there was vibration when I was breaking from speeds of 45 miles an hour and greater. I was told by the service tech that there was a loose lug nut, and that had caused damage to the rim. Hyundai gracefully replaced the rim, however, the shuttering resumed about 2000 miles later. The next time I was in, I was told that my brake rotors were warped and that it was caused from excessive high-speed breaking. The vehicle only has 32,000 miles on it at this point, and most of my driving is actually performed on 55 mile an hour or greater highways.
I’ve been driving cars for almost 40 years, and I have never had a car that had the brake issues like this and my driving habits have not changed much over the last 10-15 years.
Fix that was offered was to resurface the rotors to a cost of about $650. When I questioned the service advisor, it would seem that a thinner rotor would probably begin warping sooner as the problem is with the breaking system and the vehicle not with myself. I was also offered to do an entire new brake job with new rotors, however, that option was about two or $300 more than resurfacing the rotors. When I inquired about replacing the pads as well as the rotors, since there’s most likely damage to the pads, I was not given a direct answer of yes, or no, just an answer of it would be a good idea.
I’ve also been very frustrated with connectivity issues between my Apple CarPlay and the Hyundai Tucson. Intermittently, it will just disconnect and will not reconnect. Even with a complete stop and turning off the ignition and resetting the whole system, it does sometimes not work.
Overall, the size of the vehicle and the convenience is great. However, I would not purchase another Hyundai Tucson due to the issues that I’ve had with the connectivity issues on the 2022 model and 2024 model as well as the brake issues with the 2024 model.
