What This Recall Means

Component

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH

What Happened
The secondary hood latch in your Entourage is a metal catch that keeps the hood closed. Over time, it can corrode and get stuck in an open position, even when you think the hood is securely shut.
Risk if Unfixed
If you accidentally release the primary latch and the secondary latch gets stuck, your hood could suddenly open while driving, which could cause a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Hyundai dealer will replace the secondary latch with a new one, or inspect and lubricate it if necessary, all at no cost to you. Just wait for the recall notice and schedule an appointment when you get it.
