Hyundai driver assist problems

Owners have filed 2,262 complaints with NHTSA about the driver-assist systems on Hyundai vehicles — 100% of everything reported about the brand, across 36 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Hyundai Tucson, worst in 2025.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
