Neither HMA nor Hyundai Motor Company have been found liable for any of the claims alleged in the lawsuit. The parties have instead reached a voluntary settlement (the “Settlement”) to avoid lengthy litigation and to provide owners of Class Vehicles certain benefits.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10240082-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10240082-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10240082","components":[{"id":"engine","name":"Engine","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"ELANTRA","year_from":2014,"year_to":2016,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_hyundai_elantra","2015_hyundai_elantra","2016_hyundai_elantra"]},{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"ELANTRA GT","year_from":2014,"year_to":2016,"match":"base","vehicle_ids":["2014_hyundai_elantra","2015_hyundai_elantra","2016_hyundai_elantra"]},{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"ELANTRA GT","year_from":2017,"year_to":2020,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2017_hyundai_elantra-gt","2018_hyundai_elantra-gt","2019_hyundai_elantra-gt","2020_hyundai_elantra-gt"]},{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"SANTA FE","year_from":2010,"year_to":2012,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2010_hyundai_santa-fe","2011_hyundai_santa-fe","2012_hyundai_santa-fe"]},{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"SONATA HYBRID","year_from":2011,"year_to":2019,"match":"base","vehicle_ids":["2011_hyundai_sonata","2012_hyundai_sonata","2013_hyundai_sonata","2014_hyundai_sonata","2015_hyundai_sonata","2016_hyundai_sonata","2017_hyundai_sonata","2018_hyundai_sonata","2019_hyundai_sonata"]},{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"TUCSON","year_from":2010,"year_to":2021,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2010_hyundai_tucson","2011_hyundai_tucson","2012_hyundai_tucson","2013_hyundai_tucson","2014_hyundai_tucson","2015_hyundai_tucson","2016_hyundai_tucson","2017_hyundai_tucson","2018_hyundai_tucson","2019_hyundai_tucson","2020_hyundai_tucson","2021_hyundai_tucson"]},{"make":"HYUNDAI","model":"VELOSTER","year_from":2012,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2012_hyundai_veloster","2013_hyundai_veloster","2014_hyundai_veloster","2015_hyundai_veloster","2016_hyundai_veloster","2017_hyundai_veloster"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
