Hyundai Australia is recalling 7554 examples of its Santa Fe SUV due to a manufacturing issue that may cause the seat belt pre-tensioner inflator cap to fracture in a crash.
This recall affects current, TM-generation Santa Fe models produced between 2020 and 2022.
“Due to a manufacturing issue, the seat belt pre-tensioner inflator cap may fracture when deployed in the event of an accident,” said the company in its recall notice.
“If the seat belt pre-tensioner inflator cap fractures, metal fragments may be propelled at high speed towards the vehicle occupants and could cause serious injury.”
