What Happened
The rearview camera in your vehicle helps you see what's behind you when you're in reverse. In some 2021-2022 Hyundai models, the camera's printed circuit board can be damaged, causing it to stop working.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview camera fails, you won't be able to see what's behind you when you're reversing. This increases the risk of a crash, especially when backing out of a parking space or driveway.
Free Fix
Your Hyundai dealer will replace the faulty rearview camera with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
