2012 Hyundai Genesis Sedan

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the clutch ignition lock switch could fail. As a result, you may be able to start the vehicle when the clutch pedal is not depressed. This could cause the vehicle to move suddenly. 
Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with a manual transmission. 

Safety Risk: 
A parked vehicle that moves suddenly could create the risk of an injury or a crash.  

Corrective Actions: 
Hyundai will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the clutch ignition lock switch.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, brake fluid could leak into the control module for the antilock brake system (ABS) and cause it to short circuit. 
Note: This recall replaces recall R0246 (Transport Canada recall number 2023-527). For the Sonata model, only the Sonata Hybrid model is affected by this recall. 

Safety Risk: 
A short circuit could create a fire risk, even while the vehicle is parked and turned off. 

Corrective Actions: 
Hyundai will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the fuse for the ABS module. Hyundai recommends that you should park your vehicle outdoors and away from other vehicles or structures until the recall repairs have been completed.

This recall was replaced by Transport Canada Recall No. 2024-080. 

Issue:

Issue: 
Hyundai is conducting a special service campaign that provides anti-corrosion treatment to certain underbody components. Over time, components under the vehicle, including brake lines could corrode. If this happens, a brake line could fail and leak. A brake fluid leak can result in reduced braking. 

Safety Risk: 
Reduced braking can cause an extended stopping distance and increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
Hyundai will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the underbody, including the brake lines. The dealer will apply an anti-corrosion treatment to certain parts, and replace the brake lines if necessary.

On certain vehicles, objects or debris located under the front passenger seat could contact the electrical connector of the Occupant Classification System (OCS) and disconnect the connector if the seat is moved. This would disable the OCS and illuminate the instrument cluster Air Bag warning lamp. If the OCS is disabled, the first stage front passenger airbag would deploy in a frontal collision, regardless of the weight and size of the front passenger seat occupant. If the seat were to be occupied by a child seat or small statured occupant, it could increase the risk of injury. Additionally, this condition could cause the second stage of the frontal passenger airbag to fail to deploy during a crash, which could increase the risk of injury to the front passenger seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will secure the OCS connector to prevent it from being disconnected.
