Recall Alert: 2006-2009 Hyundai Azera

By Stephen Markley

Hyundai has issued a recall for 65,226 Azera vehicles from the 2006-2009 model years, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The recall affects Azera vehicles manufactured between Sept. 27, 2005, and Oct. 1, 2008. These models have a wiring harness for the right front seat belt tension sensor that could become damaged after repeated use of the seat belt. This could lead to the airbag failing to deploy during an accident. The right front passenger is at a much greater risk of injury without a functioning airbag.

Dealers will repair or replace the wiring harness for the seat belt tension sensor free of charge. Owners can contact Hyundai at 800-633-5151 or the NHTSA vehicle safety hot line at 888-327-4236.
