What's wrong, in plain English
Hyundai is recalling certain Santa Fe and Santa Fe Hybrid vehicles because the switch knob for the rear overhead sunshade may not sit fully recessed as it should. Because the knob isn't fully recessed, it can be bumped in a way that closes the sunshade when nobody meant for it to close.
What you should do
2. Contact a Hyundai dealer to have the switch knob replaced; you can also call Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460.
3. The replacement is free of charge.
