Hyundai and Genesis front seat belt anchors may detach

NHTSA campaign 26V218000 · Reported 2026-04-06 · Hyundai Motor America

high How serious is it? About this label

A seat belt that fails in a crash greatly increases injury risk, but the notice does not tell owners to stop driving the vehicle.

What's wrong, in plain English

On certain Hyundai Ioniq 6, Santa Fe, Santa Fe Hybrid and Genesis G90 vehicles, the anchor that holds the driver's or front passenger's seat belt to the car can come loose and detach. If that happens, the seat belt cannot hold the person in place during a crash, so it will not protect them the way it should. Dealers will inspect the anchors and either reinforce or replace them at no charge.

What you should do

1. Look up your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — these VINs became searchable on April 8, 2026. 2. Call your dealer, or Hyundai at 1-855-371-9460 or Genesis at 844-340-9741, referencing recall 298 or 032G. 3. Get the free inspection and repair.
