NHTSA recall 17V617000
Seat Belts · Hyundai Motor America
Details
What's wrong: The seat belt linkages for both front seat belts may detach from the seat belt anchor pretensioners.
Why it matters: If the seat belt linkage detaches from the seat belt anchorage, it can not properly restrain the occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will again verify the connection between the seat belt linkage and the pretensioner and additionally install a warning label to prevent future seat belt linkage detachment, free of charge. The recall began November 6, 2017.
