The short version
Hyundai Motor America reported a problem with the rear/other buckle assembly. Here is what owners need to know.
The internal wiring within the third-row driver-side seat belt buckle may become damaged and result in a permanent display of a belted third-row driver-side seat on the instrument panel.
A faulty seat belt status indicator may fail to alert occupants to an unfastened seat belt, increasing the risk of injury.
Take it to a dealer — they will install a wiring harness extension and replace the seat belt assembly, as necessary, free of charge.
