What is wrong
Issue:
On certain vehicles, the side-impact sensors may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the driver-front and passenger-front airbags may not work properly in a crash.
Note: This recall also affects hybrid (HEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models.
Safety Risk:
Airbags that don't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Hyundai will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the side-impact sensors.

Bulletins for the same vehicles and component
| DTN DL | 2026-05-08. Other. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has identified the presence of substandard and dangerous driver’s-side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN). These inflators were not supplied, approved, or authorized by the vehicle manufacturers and have primarily been found in vehicles that previously experienced a crash and underwent airbag replacement using non-genuine parts. These dangerous inflators have ruptured during deployment, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to metal fragments entering the vehicle cabin. To date, Hyundai is aware of three people who have died while driving a Hyundai vehicle with one of these substandard replacement airbag inflators that deployed in what likely would have been a survivable crash. NHTSA has issued a public advisory urging vehicle owners and service professionals to have vehicles inspected if there is reason to believe that a non-genuine replacement airbag may have been installed. Vehicles with salvage or rebuilt titles, prior airbag deployments, or unknown repair histories may present a higher risk. NHTSA strongly cautions against self-inspection by vehicle owners and recommends inspection by trained technicians. |
