On certain Santa Cruz and Tucson models, including the hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions, the software in the front cameras can misread the road ahead. The automatic emergency braking system may then kick in too early and hit the brakes when there is nothing there. That sudden stop can surprise you and the drivers behind you. Dealers will install updated front camera software at no charge. Hyundai expects to mail owner notification letters on July 17, 2026.

On certain 2025 Hyundai Tucson, 2025-2026 Santa Cruz, Santa Fe and Santa Fe Hybrid, and 2026 Genesis GV70 vehicles, the side curtain airbags may not have been installed properly. These are the airbags that drop down from above the side windows to protect people's heads in a crash. If they were put in wrong, they may not open the way they are supposed to. That means you could be hurt more seriously if you are in a crash.

Wiring near the center console may be routed the wrong way on these Hyundai Tucson and Santa Cruz vehicles. Because of it, the gear selector can be moved out of Park without anyone pressing the brake pedal. Normally the car will not allow that. So if the shifter gets bumped by a passenger, a bag, or a child, the vehicle can come out of Park and roll away on its own. A dealer reroutes the wiring free of charge.
Reported 2024-06-05 · Campaign 24V412000 · Model years: 2024
The steering on these vehicles is assisted by an electric motor. A circuit board inside that unit can short out, and when it does you lose the power assist that makes the wheel easy to turn. Steering becomes much heavier, which can catch you off guard in a turn, in a parking lot, or at highway speed. Dealers will replace the motor-driven power steering electric power pack at no charge.

Water can get into the small electrical box that controls the trailer hitch wiring. If water sits on the circuit board inside, it can short out and start a fire — while you are driving or while the vehicle is parked and turned off. Affected vehicles have tow hitch wiring that was fitted at the factory or added later by a Hyundai dealer. A dealer will install a new fuse and a wiring extension kit at no cost.
⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).

The long trim strips that run along the edges of the roof may not be attached securely. Over time one can work loose and fly off while you are driving. A piece of trim lying in the road is dangerous for the cars behind you and can cause a crash. A dealer will check your roof trim and either fasten it down properly or replace it, and you pay nothing.
Reported 2022-10-06 · Campaign 22V746000 · Model years: 2022
Certain Hyundai Santa Fe, Sonata, Veloster N, Santa Cruz, Elantra N and Kona N vehicles have a problem with the transmission's oil pump. Normally, if the pump fails, the car drops into a backup mode that still lets you limp along. On these vehicles that backup mode may not work properly, and the car can lose drive power completely — meaning it stops pulling and you can no longer accelerate. Dealers will inspect and, if needed, replace the transmission and update its software free of charge.
Reported 2022-03-28 · Campaign 22V197000 · Model years: 2022
A small pipe feeds oil to the turbocharger, the part that helps the engine make more power. On these vehicles that pipe can crack and let oil leak out into the engine bay. Engine and exhaust parts get very hot, and oil dripping onto them can catch fire. Signs to watch for are a burning smell, smoke, or oil spots under the front of the car. The dealer will replace the oil pipe at no cost.
