ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:INTERLOCK/LOCKOUT
- The defect
- Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2010-2013 Genesis Coupe vehicles. A return spring in the ignition lock switch may fracture, which can result in unintended vehicle movement when the vehicle is started in gear, without the parking brake applied.
- What it can cause
- Unintended vehicle movement can increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the ignition lock switch, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2024. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 266.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 12,612 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 81% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2010 to 2013, so the oldest vehicles on it were 14 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Hyundai vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 21 times before this, most recently in March 2024 as 24V204000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 4 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 177 complaints with NHTSA, 153 of them before this campaign was filed. 23 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in September 2009, 14 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 23V651000 (service brakes, hydraulic).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Hyundai Motor America with NHTSA on July 25, 2024 as campaign 24V562000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
