Hyundai recalls 2022 Santa Fe HEV/PHEV models with potentially illegible instrument clusters that could fail to show speed or safety warnings, increasing crash risk. Owners should contact dealers for free replacement.
An illegible instrument cluster will not show information such as vehicle speed or safety system warnings, which can increase the risk of a crash.
Hyundai is recalling certain 2022 Santa Fe Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid vehicles because their instrument clusters may become illegible after startup, preventing drivers from seeing speed or safety warnings. This could increase the risk of a crash if drivers don't notice critical information.
The instrument cluster's liquid-crystal display may invert the image upon startup, making the display unreadable. This means drivers might not see vehicle speed or safety system warnings, potentially leading to crashes.
Owners of 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe HEV and PHEV models are affected. Drivers who rely on the instrument cluster for speed or safety warnings are at higher risk.
