Official recall record

SUV recalled by HYUNDAI (ref 81780)

What the authority reported

Issue: On certain vehicles, the second and third-row seats may not detect an obstruction when the power folding functions are used, including when using the automatic power folding (stow) or the one-touch tilt-and-slide (walk-in) features. If this happens, the seat(s) may not stop moving even if there's an obstruction. Safety Risk: A seat that doesn't stop moving could increase the risk of injury. Corrective actions: To reduce the safety risk, Hyundai advises you to ensure the seats are empty before using any power folding function and not to use the one-touch tilt-and-slide (walk-in) feature when entering or exiting the third-row seats. Hyundai will notify owners in writing and send a wireless over-the-air software update to eligible vehicles to update the seat controller and audio, visual, navigation software. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a Hyundai dealership.

What to do

Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
