Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Comes First

NHTSA recall information identifies air bag concerns that may limit second-stage deployment or reduce driver neck protection, increasing injury risk in a crash. A panoramic sunroof panel may detach and become a road hazard. Certain hybrid engines may develop connecting rod bearing damage, potentially causing a fire or stall, while a hybrid protection-device issue may cause power loss in EV mode. Parking brake and ABS warning issues can leave drivers unaware of an operating or braking concern. Waiting can allow a known safety condition to remain unresolved, so contact Coggin Deland Hyundai promptly for a free VIN check and the appropriate manufacturer remedy.
