## What is wrong

Hyundai Motor Company \(Hyundai\) is recalling certain model year 2015 Sonata vehicles manufactured May 2, 2014, through May 23, 2014.  A poor connection within the vehicle's wiring harness may result in a reduction of steering assist from the vehicle's motor driven power steering system or the inability to move the vehicle's shifter from the Park position.


## What can happen

The reduction of power steering assist can increase the steering effort needed, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Hyundai notified dealers to suspend sales of affected Sonata vehicles and has published recall bulletin 14\-01\-024 providing a service procedure to repair the affected vehicles.  On June 7, 2014 Hyundai began to contact the affected retail customers.  Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1\-800\-633\-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 119.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
