 Description of the problemIn a short amount of time, 3 of my 4 doors open unreliably and one will not open at all. It started with the front passenger side door. You always must pull the handle 2 to 4 times to get it to open. It seemed only an inconvenience, and it was quoted as very expensive to fix, so i just ignored it. Then a few months later, the same thing happened to my front driver's side door. It alwas takes 2 to 4 attempts at pulling the handle to open. Again, i chalked it up to an inconvenience, but it was starting to become very concerning. The reason i write is that now (just weeks after the second door's reliability issue started), my rear right passenger side door will not open, no matter how many attempts you make. The two front doors do open on the first attempt from the inside as they should. However, the rear right passenger door will never open from the inside or the outside. This is not a child lock issue as i've never used them. It simply stopped working. The door is useless. This is a very dangerous situation if someone in the back seat needed to get out of the car in a hurry. I researched online to see if others have this problem, and it appears to be quite common on hyundai tucsons - i saw many people describing the exact same problem. The dealership is asking anywhere from $400 to $1000 to fix each door! As this is a safety issue, i feel that it strongly warrants consideration for a recall thank you for looking into this matter.
