2016 HYUNDAI SANTA FE Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe has 2 recalls, the more serious being a corroded hood latch cable that can leave the secondary latch disengaged, allowing the hood to fly open unexpectedly while driving and blocking the driver's view. The second recall affects certain vehicles built between September 2015 and February 2016: wiring in the front seatbelt buckles can be damaged by the seat height adjuster, causing the audible unbuckled reminder to stop working. Without that warning chime, a front occupant who forgets to buckle up has no alert before the vehicle moves, raising their risk of injury in a crash.
