What is wrong

Hyundai Auto Canada is conducting an extended warranty campaign for certain vehicles as water could enter the horn assembly and cause the horn's electrical contacts to corrode. As a result, the horn may not work properly or at all.

Why it matters

A horn that doesn't work properly could prevent a driver from warning others of a danger and create an unsafe situation.

What the dealer will do

To reduce the safety risk, Hyundai advises you to test the horn regularly. Hyundai will notify owners in writing and advise you to contact a dealership if your horn doesn't work properly. Hyundai will provide an extended warranty of 10 years/200 000 km to replace the horn for free if it fails.

Transport Canada lists: Elantra 2021–2022 · Santa Fe 2021–2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the rearview camera may not have been manufactured properly. Over time, the camera could fail and cause the rearview camera image not to display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the vehicle is reversing. Note: For the Santa Fe model, this recall affects both Santa Fe and Santa Fe Hybrid models. For the Elantra model, this recall affects both Elantra and Elantra Hybrid models.

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Hyundai will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the rearview camera.

Why it matters

A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

Why it matters

Transport Canada lists: Elantra 2021–2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, there may be a problem with the driver and front passenger seat belt pretensioners. As a result, the seat belt pretensioners could explode in a crash.

Note: This recall affects Elantra and Elantra Hybrid models, and replaces recalls R0209 (Transport Canada No. 2022-098) and R0200 (Transport Canada No. 2021-627). Vehicles that were repaired under those recalls also require this repair.

Why it matters

A seat belt pretensioner that explodes could create a risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Hyundai will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealership to install a protective cap over the driver and front passenger's seat belt pretensioners.
