2016 Hyundai Tucson Latches & Locks Problems

Rear passenger door suddenly would not open from either the inside or outside. My child was in the car, and I could not get him out for some time. This was a safety concern even without an accident or emergency, and creates a potentially fatal situation if there is an accident or fire where a child would need to be retrieved from the vehicle.

Rear drivers side door latch stopped working unprovoked. The door was working fine and was parked for the night. The next morning the rear drivers side door would not open from inside or outside upon unlocking doors.

Both rear doors do not open from the outside or inside, no child lock engaged. Usually takes several tries locking/unlocking to get door open. In the event of a crash, passengers would not be able to exit the vehicle.

The driver's side front door and rear door lock actuators failed in both the doors and you are unable to open the doors from the exterior of the vehicle after the doors have been locked. The only way to open them is to go around and open them from the inside of the vehicle.

My 2016 Hyundai Tucson has repeatedly had a major safety issue when one of the doors will suddenly completely stop working. One day a door will work fine, and after no accidents, impact, or any other known factor, the door is completely unable to be opened. The handle operates as intended, but the door itself does open.

The locks in the doors do not alway unlock and sometimes stick. When in a accident or and emergency I won’t be able to get my kids out of the back seat due to the doors not always wanting to open. The front door does not open till the third pull at times.

Back rear doors do not unlock. No matter how many times you press the unlock button they just do not unlock. Nothing has been done to the doors or just started out of no where.

We have had 3 doors malfunction to the point where they can't be opened (even from the inside) and need to be repaired. This is a safety issue because it could prevent safe exit from the car in the event of an accident. This is a commonly reported issue with 2016 Tucsons and should be the subject of a recall.

First, in 2019, my front driver’s side door stopped working. I could only open it from the inside if I kept my doors unlocked and eventually couldn’t open it at all and I had to crawl in and out of the passenger seat when it wasn’t working. The dealership repaired it because it was under warranty but I still had to pay for everything but the part.

Initially, a couple weeks ago my back passenger side door stopped opening consistently from the inside. Locking and unlocking the door repeatedly would fix it.

Hyundai Tucson door latch failure. Unable to open rear passenger door from the inside or the outside. If I were to be involved in an accident with passengers in the vehicle there would be no way for the passengers to exit the vehicle, which could result in someone dying.

Rear drivers side door latch is locked shut and will not open from the inside or outside. This is a safety issue because if someone is riding in the back seat and the vehicle was to start on fire or is in a crash and the person sitting there is unable to escape, due to the door being locked shut, they would die.

Rear passenger side door will not open from the inside or outside. Happened right after parking. Tried using the remote key and manually unlocking, flipped child safety lock on and off, nothing worked.

Rear driver side door handle stuck and unable to open from outside or inside. Extremely unsafe due to not being able to exit the vehicle in case of fire or accident.

I am having problems with the driver side door. The latch is not working properly. The door gets stuck and doesn't open all the time from the outside.

2016 Hyundai Tucson Front Right Passenger door latch does not allow door to be opened from the outside. No warning. Research shows this as a definite safety issue on several Hyundai models and has been for years but see no recall.

Rear door on the driver's side will not open from the outside or the inside. This is a known problem but there is no recall. I called my local dealership and they won't guarantee that this is under warranty, and they won't give me an appointment for 6 weeks.

Driver's side passenger door sounds like it is unlocking when I use the key fob or the interior power lock on the driver's door, but the passenger door can only be opened if I reach from the driver's seat across the center console to manually open the door using the handle.

Passenger side front door lock intermittently does not unlock either by pressing door handle or remote control. Passenger can be trapped inside of vehicle in the event of an emergency egress being needed. Problem is intermittent for now, but growing in frequency!

My passenger door and back drivers side door won’t open when unlocked. You have to open the door from the inside

Door latch failure. The door latches do not work, and become un-openable. 11/2020 & 04/2022. Yes it is currently available for inspection with a non-operational door. Safety issue, cannot exit the car. Cannot get kids out of the car. I cannot get out of the car. No one can open the car door that is affected when unlocked from the inside or the outside of the car. Yes, there are articles, fixes and my personal mechanic and Hyundai mechanics have addressed the previous same issue in 11/2020. The car was inspected by a Hyundai dealer 10/2020 who gave me a quote to replace the door latches and locks. The car was inspected by my mechanic at a Chevrolet dealership as well, who installed part #Hyundai actuator motor Front door lock 81310D3010. The car has not been inspected by police or insurance. The car has had same failure in drivers door that was fixed by a different car manufacturer. The car currently has a different door latch failure. There are no warning lamp indicators. The door simply will not open at all when unlocked causing a problem for anyone to exit the vehicle in an emergency.

There appears to be a dangerously common malfunction on my 2016 Hyundai Tucson. Without any warning or indication of failure I am unable to open either of my rear passenger doors. Neither from inside, nor outside. The door locks appear to lock and unlock, manually and/or electrically, but the none of the door handles work. First the rear right side, followed by the rear left side a day later. It would be impossible in an emergency for someone to exit or be removed from the vehicle. God forbid there was a fire, or child stuck in a car seat. Vehicle is available for inspection. Though have not been able to have a dealer inspect it yet...Hyundai is not returning my calls. How can this not be a recall yet!! Do innocent people have to die first? There's no reason to have "tombstone legislation". Be proactive.

Passenger rear door will no longer open on first try after locking and unlocking vehicle

Passenger door has to be forced open when unlocked. Once opened the door works fine. Door works fine from inside. This is a safety issue because if n an accident happens and can't get in the driver's side, rescue workers couldn't get into the passenger side. I've read many customer complaints for the same issue with all doors. This should be a recall.

The rear doors on both driver and passenger side will not open. They will not open from the outside or inside. This is a safety concern since I have children in car seats. I am not able to secure my children in their seats. My children are not able to exit my vehicle safely. If I were to be in a collision, first responders would not have access to my children. This is not the first Hyundai Tucson to have this problem as from further research, hundreds or owners have complained of this exact problem. Someone should be held responsible and accountable.

Multiple door latches failing all within the past 6 months, UNABLE to open from inside or outside. Rear doors both failed within weeks of each other. Front driver's side door is now beginning to stick, which is how the other failing doors began to initially fail. If you Google this issue, you will see it is a common problem for 2016 Hyundai Tucson model. This is a critical issue as all door latch assemblies are failing at the same time on my vehicle, which will make it nearly inoperable, as well as a safety issue if I or my 3 children are unable to enter or exit the vehicle. I took the vehicle to a local ASE certified repair shop and they stated that the cables inside the latch assembly become stretched or compromised. They were able to perform a temporary fix, but they said in order to completely fix the issue, the entire latch assembly needs replaced. The temporary fix did not even last for 3 days and cost me $300. Cost for the assembly part alone for one door is approximately $200. If you add that to labor, I will be spending nearly $1,600 to replace all 4 door latch assemblies. This should not be the consumer's responsibility as it is an ongoing issue for this make and model year. I have submitted a complaint for recall directly to Hyundai US, but this is a critical issue, and something needs to be done immediately!

Both of my rear doors will not open. It started with the rear passenger side door and as of two days ago now my rear driver side door will not open either. I am also having some problems with my driver door, sometimes it won’t open until the second try.

Once my car door is unlocked from the outside it WILL NOT open! My son also owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson and the SAME thing is happening. I have been hearing of this happening for many, many more Hyundai owners.

In late 2020 my airbag had to be replaced for numerous malfunctions, at the same time my passenger side front door would not open on the first try with the key fob. 8 months later, now my driver door is doing the same thing and I'm no longer under warranty. It's ridiculous this isn't a recall with so many similar complaints.

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the rear passenger’s side door failed to open without warning. The contact stated that the lock and unlock function operated as designed however, the door would not upon from the inside or outside.

This safety problem has now occurred twice. The passenger door is sticking and takes 5 or 6 times to pull on the handle to open the door. The door opens from the inside but not the outside.

My car is a 2016 hyundai tucson with about 24,000 miles on it and bought brand new. I have had multiple issues from the beginning. I would have issues with my car turning off then it would leave me in stuck and wouldn't excelerate and almost killed me multiple times so I had it in the shop for the third time.

The Doors are failing. Eventually, the actuator fails and cables stretch due to use. The door cannot be opened from the inside nor the outside.

2016 Hyundai Tucson rear passenger door is stuck closed. When door has been unlocked, door cannot be opened either from the inside or the outside of the vehicle using the door handles. The Passenger becomes trapped inside the car and should something happen, they cannot exit the car immediately if needed.

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door locking mechanism had failed and the door could not be opened from inside or outside the vehicle. Additionally, the passenger’s side front door and the driver’s side rear door could not be opened from outside the vehicle.

Rear driver side door latch will not open when unlocked. Believe it is actuator issue. Will not open from inside or outside.

The rear doors do not open from inside or outside. We have attempted to pull the battery for a potential reset, without success. Both doors became inoperable simultaneously. The electric locking mechanisms work. The electric windows go up and down. We noticed this on a multi state road trip with backseat passengers. In the event of an accident, the backseat passenger would not have egress from the vehicle.

Latch assembly-rear door LH failed. Could not open door from outside or inside. Replaced on 06/26/2021 Latch assembly-rear door RH failed. Could not open door from outside or inside. Replaced on 02/09/2018

My rear driver side door will not open from the outside or the inside. This is a serious safety issue. If a person or even a child is in the back of my car, how are they supposed to exit the vehicle in an emergency if they can't get the door open? Hydundai is saying the door not latching is not a safety concern, it is.

When obviously unlocked, can feel lock disengage and see lock indicator pop out, door does not open unless handle is pulled multiple times. Driver side was repaired under warranty; both passenger side doors have the same problem but started after warranty.

Door actuators are failing causing doors to not open/be permanently locked. I have paid to repair one (which I don't have any confidence in), it's happening to another already, and countless others I've read are having the same issue. I hope that I don't run into the issue in a real emergency.

Rear passenger doors will not open even when unlocked, child safety feature is not on. This is a safety concern in an emergency situation. Doors will not open from the inside or outside.

THE LEFT SIDE REAR DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE .. ALSO NOW THE DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND GETTING WORSE BY THE DAY. NOT BEING ABLE TO GET MY CHILD IN OR OUT OF THE CAR ON THE LEFT SIDE IS VERY WORRIESOME IF THERE WAS ANY TYPE OF AN EMERGANCY. IT HAS NOT BEEN INSPECTED AS OF YET BUT I AM TAKING IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW 6.17.21. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR NOTIFICATION DESCRIBING THE DEFECT OF THE DOORS.

The locking mechanism of the driver's door as well as the rear door on the driver's side has malfunctioned. The driver's door requires the exterior handle to be pulled 3-6 times before the door will open (it opens on the first pull from the inside. The rear door does not open at all from either the inside or the outside. The issue with the driver's door started to occur in Feb 2021, or at approximately 50k - 55k miles. The issue with the rear door started to occur in May 2021, or at approximately 55k - 58k miles. I have not yet had the issue inspected by a dealer or independent mechanic, but will be soon. The rear door is a significant safety issue. If a severe enough accident occurred including a fire or rollover, or a collision to the passenger side that rendered the passenger side doors inoperable, occupants in the rear seat would not be able to exit the vehicle. I am also worried that the driver's door and possibly the passenger side doors will begin to not function at all. I have ready on many Hyundai forums that this is a common issue to all Hyundai models manufactured in the 2010s.

UNKNOWN- the rear passenger door won’t open from the outside or the inside of the car. And now this issue is happening with both rear doors and the drivers side door. In order to get into the drivers seat, you have to get in through the passenger side door and crawl over. When I Google this safety concern, it seems like this has happened too many people. I’m concerned because if this has happened to others and if anyone gets into a car accident, no one can get out, without trying to break a window and crawl out.

My front passenger door and rear driver passenger door will not open from the outside or the inside. Issue with door latch mechanism. Mechanism was repaired approx. 1 yr ago on passenger rear door. Safety issue since doors can not be opened from inside if am emergency happened. Child age 5 rides in car regularly. Big safety concern.

Passenger side rear door lock failed at 71000 miles. Could not open door from outside or inside.

Driver's side rear door will not open. Was working fine - then suddenly neither the inside nor outside handle will open door when unlocked. This is a concerning safety issue since I use this vehicle to transport my 2 grandchildren in car seats - and creates a hazardous situation in an emergency. Internet forums are full of reports of this same issue with this particular year/model of Tucson. Also - there is evidence that Hyundai Korea is aware of this problem - and has initiated steps to offer owners replacement of all door latches to remedy the issue. Here is a weblink to the Korean page that spells out some of the details: http://www.consumerwide.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=37459 FYI - I have owned and driven cars for almost 50 years - and have never had a vehicle where the vehicle doors just stopped functioning like this....

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door had ceased in the lock position. The contact had not taken the vehicle to the dealer to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 89,362.

I had a problem with my driver door not opening when I originally purchased this vehicle 2 years ago. The dealer fixed it for me that time. It happened again to my rear driver side door. It starts off taking a few pulls to open the door, then after a couple weeks, the door stops unlatching all together, can’t open it from the inside or outside. Rear passenger door went a few months after that, so I have no access to the back seat. Drivers door just started having the problem again too. Was told the problem was the door lock actuator when I initially got it fixed. From what I can tell, a lot of people have this problem, it’s a know issue with the 2016 Tucson’s, and a safety issue at that. What if there are children or elderly people in the back seat and this was an issue during a car crash? I can’t pay to replace a bad part every few months only to have the problem happen again. Hyundai needs to offer a solution to this problem, not just replacing the same faulty part.

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the front and rear driver’s side doors failed to open using the interior or exterior door handles. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 72,000.

The drivers door and drivers Side back door doesn’t open from the inside or the outside. It opens after like 10 tries of yanking on it. This is a serious issue if I had to get out of there quickly or if I had someone in the back that couldn’t climb. I should have to climb out of my car. Recall this.

Passenger side door will not open even though it is unlocked. Steering wheel shaft is going out and rattles when driving. not safe and could cause an accident or death

Passenger door lock won’t unlock from inside or outside. 4-year old Grandson could not get out This happened before with the passenger front seat door. Took to dealer and fixed. I am seeing online that many people are having the same problem. This could be dangerous.

Two doors will not unlock or open.If in a wreck you are trapped. Dealer said I would have to pay to fix the car. Car will not speed up when on a rough road, which other cars will run over you.

My passenger side door and back door not opening from outside. We have a kid in the seat so we have a child lock in the back. Because of that we couldn't able to open the door. When I called hyundai about that they said they will first evaluate for that I need to pay and then they charge me for the 2 doors. This is very absurd.

The diver side rear door will not open. Does not open from outside or the inside. If this happens to the other rear door a person could get trapped inside the car.

I have had three of the four doors unable to open at different time before repairing them. This is a safety issue putting my daughter trapped in the vehicle with the only way out to climb over the seats. If in an accident she would be unable to get out of the car quickly. I don't understand why this hasn't been addressed by NHTSA yet. Having a vehicle that could trap you in it is unsafe. One door was repaired when still under warranty, the next was repaired and paid for and now it's happened to another door that needs repairs and finally the drivers door appears it's going to have the same thing happen to it. Currently once the vehicle is unlocked you have to pull on the door handle twice before it opens. First pull still feels locked second pull opens it.

When unlocking the doors with key fob, all the doors besides the driver's side, will open. The drivers side won't open at first. Have to unlock and relock the car several times just to open the door on the drivers side. The same thing is happening when sitting inside the passenger seat on the left handside of the driver, the door won't open from inside out. The door has to be open by someone on the outside. This is been happening a lot to many people.

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated the vehicle's rear passenger door failed to open and close.

The contact had taken the vehicle to the dealer however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,500.

Rear Passenger Door won't open and driver side door is getting stuck. Have 2 pull drivers side door to get it to open.

The left-back passenger door now will not open from outside. I think it is a safety issue. In case of an accident, I would able to get my kids fast from the car.
