There is a control knob on the left side of the steering wheel that is used to navigate the instrument cluster menu, and buttons on the right side of the steering wheel that control the volume. Occasionally, when I move the left-side control knob upward to navigate the instrument cluster menu, the volume unexpectedly increases instead. I suspect this may be a software-related issue. However, sin
We were driving 10-15 mph on a local road approaching a red light. The brakes stopped working so we couldn't stop at the red. When we pressed the brakes more, we had unintended acceleration and had to go on the sidewalk to avoid cars. Then had to swerve and zigzag to avoid cars coming out of an intersection and oncoming traffic. We were going around 60 mph while pressing the brake. It was horrib
While driving, the digital instrument cluster on my 2025 Tucson Hybrid Limited goes completely black and displays only "NO SIGNAL" in red, along with multiple warning lamps (AFS, ABS, EPB, airbag/brake indicators). The speedometer, fuel gauge, gear position and all driver information disappear while the vehicle is moving. This happened multiple times - recent was on Thu, Oct 29, 2026.
I was driving home tonight and while driving the car lost all power on the full screen and headlights. This is the second report of the same problem. It was like a blackout at two o clock in the morning. I couldn’t see the speed and the lights went out. It did come back on in immediately.

Yes. In the US, safety recalls are repaired free of charge by the manufacturer at an authorized dealer, no matter how old the car is. Call your dealer's service department, give them your VIN, and book the repair.
Recalls cover specific production ranges, so two cars of the same model and year can differ. The surest check is your VIN: call the dealer or use the NHTSA VIN lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls. The campaign numbers on this page are what the dealer uses to look it up.
Don't wait — book the free repair with an authorized dealer. If a recall says to park outside or not drive the car, follow that instruction: it usually means a fire or stall risk. Recall repairs are free and the dealer has the parts or will order them.
