What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL

What Happened
The driver's frontal air bag in your vehicle is a safety feature that helps protect you in a crash. In some 2015-2016 Sonata and 2016 Elantra models, this air bag might be missing a crucial component that could prevent it from deploying fully in a severe accident.
Risk if Unfixed
If your air bag doesn't inflate properly, you're at a higher risk of injury in a crash. This could lead to serious harm, including head, neck, and chest injuries.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Hyundai dealer will replace the faulty air bag module with a new one, completely free of charge. You'll be notified when the repair is ready, and you should schedule it as soon as possible.
