Recalls & safety ratings
Sourced from NHTSA recall and safety-rating data — last checked 6 September 2026.
At least one campaign below carries a fire risk that can start with the engine off. Keep the car outdoors and away from structures until a dealer has carried out the work.
A campaign usually covers only part of a model year's production, so it may not apply to a particular car. Check the VIN to be certain.
NHTSA campaign 24V879000 · Hyundai Motor America
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Santa Fe, Santa Fe HEV, Elantra, Elantra HEV and 2022 Elantra N and Santa Fe PHEV vehicles. Due to a damaged printed circuit board, the rearview camera image may fail to display. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."
A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver's visibility and increases the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the rearview camera, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 14, 2025. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 271.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to nhtsa.gov.

An exploding seat belt pretensioner can project metal fragments into the vehicle, strike vehicle occupants, and result in injury.
