2018 Hyundai Tucson Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Hyundai? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Hyundai? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Tucson towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Tucson is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Tucson transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Hyundai Tucson’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Hyundai. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Hyundai Tucson? Yes, your Hyundai Tucson can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Tucson ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
