NHTSA recall 95V163000
Suspension · Hyundai Motor America
Details
What's wrong: One or both of the rear suspension lower spring seats are not securely attached to the shock absorber and can slide lower onto the shock absorber than intended. The rear spring would no longer function to support the vehicle body at its normal height.
Why it matters: Loss of rear spring support can increase the potential for a vehicle accident if it occurs while the vehicle is moving.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the vehicle to determine whether the rear shock absorbers are from the suspect production. If the shock absorbers are from the suspect production, the shock absorber/spring seat assemblies will be replaced.
