Recall of 42,000 vehicles due to transmission wiring issues

At the end of November 2024, Hyundai announced the recall of more than 42,000 cars due to wiring problems in transmissions, which caused parked cars to start from the place without a driver's command.

6,900 Hyundai Santa Cruz and 35,500 Hyundai Tucson 2025 vehicles are subject to recall. It is estimated that the gearbox defect affected about 1% of cars, but all cars are subject to inspection.

Owners can continue to use the car, but they are advised to use the parking brake when parking, according to employees of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. - When contacting the centers of the company, dealers must fix the problem for free.

The problem was first discovered in late October, when Hyundai Motor's North American branch received a report on the unexpected movement of a parked Hyundai Tucson 2025. In early November, the cause of this phenomenon was revealed, and it became clear that wiring problems could affect not only Tucson cars, but also the Santa Cruz model. This prompted the North American Security Decision Making Authority to conduct additional inspections and recall the affected vehicles. Hyundai said it had not received any reports of injuries, deaths, crashes or fires related to cars already sold.

The company also recalled more than 145,000 Genesis and IONIQ electric vehicles. The recall was due to the fact that the integrated charging control units (ICCUs) of the cars failed and did not allow the battery to be charged. Dealers will have to check and replace the ICCU and its fuse as needed, and update the ICCU software. All repair work will be carried out free of charge.^[1]
