Hyundai Issues Dual Recall for Santa Fe and Ioniq 6 Models

Hyundai has announced a recall affecting two of its most popular models, the Santa Fe SUV and the Ioniq 6 electric sedan. The move comes after safety regulators identified potential issues that could increase the risk of accidents or injury. Owners of certain model years are being urged to check their vehicle identification numbers and schedule repairs at no cost.

For the Santa Fe, the recall centers on a possible malfunction with the electronic stability control system, which could fail to activate under specific driving conditions. Meanwhile, the Ioniq 6 is being recalled due to a software error in the charging system that might cause the vehicle to unexpectedly lose power while in motion.

Hyundai has stated that both issues can be corrected with a simple software update at any authorized service center.

The automaker has already notified dealers and is in the process of contacting affected owners by mail. Repairs are expected to take less than an hour, and Hyundai will cover all related expenses. Local drivers can visit authorized dealers, including Boca Auto Care, for the necessary updates.

As with all recalls, there is no out-of-pocket cost for the owner. Hyundai recommends acting promptly to ensure vehicle safety and compliance.
