Transport Canada recall 2019498 · manufacturer campaign R0160 (91C061)

7 October 2019

Transport Canada lists: Elantra 2020 · Ioniq 2019

What is wrong

On certain cars, the wheel lug nuts were not properly tightened during assembly. This could cause the nuts to loosen or fall off, and could result in a wheel separating from the car. Note: For the Ioniq model, this recall only involves the Ioniq PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) version.

Why it matters

A wheel separation could increase the risk of a crash. A wheel that detaches from a vehicle could create a hazard for other drivers and nearby people.

What the dealer will do

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their car to a dealer to ensure the front and rear wheel nuts are properly tightened.
