The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

Item as described quick delivery

A 2011 Hyundai Tucson has to be worked on to the specifications Hyundai released for that model year and for your particular engine and trim, not to a number carried over from an adjacent year. These are Hyundai's own factory service and repair procedures for this vehicle.

Engines covered

  • 2.0L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 2.4L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sport utility

Trims covered

  • GL
  • GLS
  • L
  • Limited

Known issues on the 2011 Tucson. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. One concerns the automatic transmission fluid cooler hose on vehicles manufactured July 22, 2010 to October 31, 2010: if enough transmission fluid leaks out, the transmission may not function properly. Another covers the hydraulic antilock brake and traction control system, where an engine compartment fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury. The third involves the brake light switch, which can cause a failure to illuminate the stop lamps during braking or an inability to disengage the cruise control. Owners have filed 174 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 110 technical service bulletins.

Chasing a leak at the transmission cooler lines, working on the antilock brake hydraulic unit, or replacing a stop lamp switch, you stay on Hyundai's own procedure and the correct specification for your 2011 Tucson.

NHTSA #19V06300005/02/2019Component: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2011-2013 Tucson vehicles. The engine oil pan may leak and, if not addressed, the loss of oil may result in engine damage.

Consequence

A damaged engine can increase the risk of a fire or it can cause an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Hyundai has notified owners, and dealers will inspect for an oil pan leak, replacing it if necessary, and install an updated oil pressure switch, free of charge. The recall began August 19, 2019. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 181.

NHTSA #16V05700028/01/2016Component: POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:COOLING UNIT AND LINES

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2011 Hyundai Tucson vehicles manufactured July 22, 2010, to October 31, 2010. The affected vehicles have a transmission fluid cooler hose that may have been improperly manufactured, resulting in a transmission fluid leak.

Consequence

If enough transmission fluid leaks out, the transmission may not function properly and the vehicle may stop moving, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the transmission fluid cooler hose, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 25, 2016. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 139.

NHTSA #14V24500013/05/2014Component: AIR BAGS

Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 Hyundai Tucson vehicles manufactured January 3, 2011, through December 23, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the air bag assembly installed in the steering wheel may come loose from its mounting.

Consequence

An air bag assembly that is not properly mounted may result in an increased risk of injury to the driver in the event of a crash.

Remedy

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and tighten the bolts that secure the driver's air bag assembly, free of charge. The recall began on May 9, 2014. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 118.

NHTSA #13V11300001/04/2013Component: EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCH

In September 2013, Hyundai informed the agency that it was adding more vehicles to this campaign, representing an additional 6

Consequence

Failure to illuminate the stop lamps during braking or inability to disengage the cruise control could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, when the ignition is in the 'ON' position, the transmission shifter may be able to be moved out of Park without first applying the brake. This may lead to unintentional movement of the car which may increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the stop lamp switch, free of charge. The safety recall began on April 22, 2013. Owners may contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's recall campaign number is 110.
