What Happened
The emblem on the front of your Elantra's air bag is a small metal cover that protects the bag when it deploys. But in some 2022 and 2023 models, it might not be attached properly.
Risk if Unfixed
If the emblem comes loose while the air bag deploys, it could hit someone inside the vehicle, potentially causing an injury.
Free Fix
Your Hyundai dealer will replace the air bag cover with a new one, completely free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
