5 recalls across 5 model years
The Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In has 5 recalls across the 2022-2023 model years, with the most serious being a seatbelt pretensioner defect on 2022-2023 vehicles where the front driver and passenger pretensioners can explode during a crash, sending metal fragments into the cabin and striking occupants.
The tow hitch harness on 2022-2023 models equipped with a factory-installed or dealer-accessory trailer hitch can develop an electrical fault that starts a fire while parked or driving. On 2022 models specifically, the fuel tank can be improperly formed during manufacturing, allowing fuel to leak and ignite if it contacts an ignition source.
Two lower-severity issues affect 2022 models. The instrument cluster display can invert its image at startup, making the screen unreadable and hiding speed and warning information from the driver. A separate circuit board fault can prevent the rearview camera from displaying an image when backing up, reducing visibility behind the vehicle.
