2016 HYUNDAI TUCSONTransport Canada Recall #2016263
The official notice
Defect
On certain vehicles, the secondary hood latch can potentially disengage due to a tolerance build-up between the latch and catch mechanisms. If the vehicle were to be driven with the primary hood latch disengaged, there is a potential that the secondary hood latch may not hold the hood closed as designed while the vehicle is in motion. If this were to occur, it could compromise the driver’s ability to see the road and its users, as well as cause damage to the windshield. These issues could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the secondary hood latch catch with a revised component.
