Buying Tips for the 2018 Hyundai Tucson (TL)

  • ✓On 7DCT cars, test from cold and hot in traffic, on hills and while parking because hesitation and shudder often show up before any warning light does
  • ✓Rear suspension bushes and links wear on heavier cars that tow or spend time on rough rural roads
  • ✓Verify the reverse camera and touchscreen both behave properly after a wash because water ingress is not unusual
  • ✓Use a VIN check for airbag, software and brake-related recall campaigns before buying
