Santa Fe Models Recalled By Hyundai

Several news reports have revealed recently that Hyundai has issued a recall for all units of the 2007 through 2009 Santa Fe vehicles over a possible issue with the model’s occupant classification system.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration memo that is now in circulation, all units of the Santa Fe vehicles manufactured between April 19, 2006 and July 7, 2008 were equipped with an OCS that might require recalibration in order to detect the presence of children and small statured adults.

If the recalibration does not occur, the OCS may fail to notice the presence of a passenger in the front seat and an airbag may not deploy in the event of an auto accident.
