## What is wrong

Hyundai Motor America \(Hyundai\) is recalling certain model year 2015 Sonata vehicles manufactured April 25, 2014, to December 4, 2014. The affected vehicles have a front passenger seat belt whose buckle latch assembly may prevent the front passenger from fastening the seat belt.


## What can happen

If the front passenger seat belt cannot be latched, an occupant sitting in the front passenger seat has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.


## The remedy

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will repair or replace the front passenger seat belt buckle, free of charge.  The recall began on September 15, 2015.  Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1\-855\-671\-3059.  Hyundai's number for this recall is 130.


## 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.
