Hyundai affected vehicles have a driver-side frontal air bag that may not adequately protect the driver's neck from injury in the event of a crash.
The short version
Hyundai Motor America reported a problem with the air bags. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles have a driver-side frontal air bag that may not adequately protect the driver's neck from injury in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
A frontal air bag that does not adequately protect the driver's neck may increase their risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's frontal air bag module, free of charge.
