This is my third Hyundai. I got this vehicle after my second one was totaled in an accident. This vehicle drives great, has great gas mileage and has been very low maintenance. It is been a great vehicle.
Runs like a champ, lots of room. It has only required routine maintenance. It is solid and dependable good gas mileage and never has broken down in 15 years. I drove this vehicle across country with now worries, by far the best car I have ever owned.
Last 14 yrs for me very convenient car and after 10 yrs you need a tune up and spend money on it. Belt, Tires, Battery, Shocks, etc. Although the wire stops working sometimes so far so good for budget.
I love the size, comfort, great gas mileage and it is been a very reliable vehicle. This is my third Hyundai and they have all been reliable. I love having the convenience of a SUV but great gas mileage,
Has lasted a long time. Very durable and reliable. Only recently has started to break down and need repairs, but this is after a decade and over 170,000 miles of continued use. Inside is still comfortable.
Other than paint issues so just cosmetic issues I haven't really had any major issues with the vehicle. I have replaced the battery three times but other than that no issues. Paint job is wearing off so I have a patina finish.
This particular model only came in black and white. I would like to see more options like red, green, purple. It could also use USB b ports for charging laptops or playing DVD players for long road trips when the kids are driving you crazy.
After 14 years some wiring issues I think over a years of running the engine especially with the snow cars won't last long enough as long as you need to have a lot of repair. Gas Mileage is practical sometimes it will get corroded.
The paint finish! Paint is fading and peeling so I have a patina finish! All three Hyundais I have had start to vibrate or shake when I hit 65 mph - it usually stops when I hit about 70 but there are a lot of areas here in San Antonio with speed limit of 65.
Not sporty. Does not have the acceleration of other SUVs. It is a family car. Being a 2005 model, it does not have near the amenities of newer cars. Other than that, I am still quite happy with the Hyundai and will be a loyal customer.
The 2005 Hyundai Tucson has an average owner rating of 4.39 out of 5 which ranks it #6 of 20 other Compact SUVs.
