The well-known Hyundai DSG issues include many types of hesitation and odd shifting. I have been watching this for many years and have not heard of a definitive fix. I have tested many (brand new) Hyundais with the transmission and only had one, the first one, long ago feel odd. I got a 2019 Elantra SPort today with one to test. I suspect it will behave normally. I would love to buy one of these because when they work right they are great. But I would never have the guts. Way too many reports of issues for my risk tolerance. [Car Talk has been warning consumers of the issue since 2016 via this story.](https://www.cartalk.com/blogs/car-talk-car-complaints/first-signs-carpocalypse-2016-hyundai-tucson-dct-transmission-glitch)

I bought a 2017 Tucson last year.  
When I saw most of posts on [complaints.com](http://complaints.com) were about the DCT trans I opted for the conventional auto.  
Some say the 8.5 sec to 60mph is “underpowered”, but I’m OK with it.
