Hyundai is recalling approximately 56,148 vehicles, including 2021-2022 Santa Fe, Sonata, and Veloster N models, along with 2022 Santa Cruz, Elantra N, and Kona N models. A defect in the transmission oil pump can cause the vehicle's 'fail-safe' drive mode to malfunction, potentially leading to a complete loss of power while driving. To resolve this issue, Hyundai dealers will update the transmission software and replace the entire transmission assembly if necessary at no cost to the owner.
If the transmission oil pump fails and the fail-safe mode is impaired, the vehicle may lose drive power suddenly. This loss of power while the vehicle is in motion significantly increases the risk of a crash.
Transmission software update and potential transmission replacement.
