Seat Belts:front:retractor

NHTSA recall 23V557000 · announced August 4, 2023 · filed by Hyundai Motor America · 168 units affected

The problem

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2023 Genesis GV60 vehicles. The automatic locking retractor for the front passenger-side seat belt may prohibit the seat belt from fastening and/or extending properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 208, "Occupant Crash Protection" and 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

The risk

A seat belt that fails to fasten or extend properly may not adequately restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

What to do

Dealers will inspect and replace the front passenger-side seat belt, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 14, 2023. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 015G.
