Hyundai Tucson Lemon Law Attorney

Yes, if your Tucson's dual-clutch transmission continues to shudder or hesitate after a reasonable number of repair attempts, it may qualify under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. California law generally considers two or more repair attempts for a safety-related defect or four or more attempts for any substantial defect as sufficient grounds for a claim. You should document every dealer visit and retain all repair orders.

Under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, coverage is typically limited to the original manufacturer's warranty period. However, if the engine defect was present during the warranty period or if Hyundai issued an extended warranty or recall for the Theta II engine seizure issue, you may still have a valid claim. Consulting with a lemon law attorney can help determine your eligibility based on the specific timeline of your defect.

Under California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, a vehicle may be presumed a lemon after four or more repair attempts for the same non-safety defect, or after the vehicle has been out of service for a cumulative 30 or more calendar days. If the infotainment failure also affects the rearview camera, it could be argued as a safety defect, which lowers the threshold to two repair attempts. Keep detailed records of each dealer visit and the duration of each repair.

Under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, if Hyundai or its authorized dealers are unable to repair a substantial defect after a reasonable number of attempts, the manufacturer must either replace the vehicle or refund the purchase price, minus a reasonable usage allowance. An AWD system that repeatedly fails and limits your vehicle to front-wheel drive is likely considered a substantial impairment. You are entitled to reimbursement for incidental damages as well.
