Hyundai Sonata: Seats and Restraints

Affects Hyundai Sonata · 2011–2015 — about 64K vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, the connections between the front seat belts and the floor mounted seat belt anchor pretensioners may not have been attached properly during assembly. This could result in a front seat belt possibly detaching from the anchor pretensioner. If the vehicle were to be involved in a collision, and the seat belt were to detach, it could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will verify the connection between the seat belt linkage and the anchor pretensioner’s cable connector for both front seat belts and repair as necessary. <b> Note: For the 2015 model year, it is only Sonata Hybrid models that are affected. </b>
