Powertrain Limited Warranty: Covers repair or replacement of powertrain components (i.e., selected engine and transmission/transaxle components), originally manufactured or installed by Hyundai that are defective in material or factory workmanship, under normal use and maintenance. Coverage applies to original owner only, effective with 2004 model year and newer model-year vehicles. Second and/or subsequent owners have powertrain components coverage under the 5-Year/60,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Excludes coverage for vehicles in commercial use (e.g., taxi, route delivery, delivery service, rental, etc.).
Hands-Free Power Smart Liftgate: The Smart Liftgate will open when the smart key is within 40 inches of the detection area for at least 3 seconds. Radio transmitters and other vehicle smart keys may interfere in normal operation of the feature. Please consult Owner’s Manual for further details. Make sure you close the liftgate before driving.
Automatic Emergency Braking: *Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) is designed to detect vehicles whose tail lights are directly in front of the Tucson. AEB will not detect objects other than cars. AEB initiates full braking at speeds between 5 and 50 mph. AEB is not a substitute for safe driving. See Owner’s Manual for details and limitations.
- Listed below are the conditions referenced in the owner’s manual where the system may not detect a pedestrian:
- The pedestrian is not fully captured by the camera sensor, or the pedestrian does not walk in the upright position.
- The pedestrian moves very fast. · The pedestrian abruptly appears in front
- The pedestrian wears clothes in the color similar to the background
- The outside is too bright or too dark
- The vehicle drives at night or in the darkness
- There is an item similar to a person’s body structure
- The pedestrian is small · The pedestrian has impaired mobility
- It is difficult to distinguish the pedestrian from the surroundings
- The sensor recognition is limited
- There is a group of pedestrians
The optional parking assist system is a supplemental system and not a substitute for proper backing up procedures. The system is designed to audibly warn the driver of objects 50 inches behind the vehicle. When active, the system operates when you are in reverse at up to 6 mph. System may not detect every object behind you. Always look over your shoulder and use the rearview camera and mirrors to confirm clearance. System effectiveness depends on many factors. See your owner's manual for details.
