2002 Hyundai Tiburon — reported problems

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

• Owner complaints (1,524 records, model years 1997–2008) are most frequently classified under: powertrain (transmission & drivetrain), air bags (restraint system) and electrical system.
• Manufacturer communications (774 records, model years 1997–2008) are most frequently classified under: powertrain (transmission & drivetrain), engine and equipment & accessories.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
