STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE
- The defect
- Hyundai Translead is recalling certain 2026 Translead vehicles. The cylinder pin in the slide liftgate may be insufficiently lubricated, which can cause the pin to seize, resulting in lift gate failure.
- What it can cause
- A lift gate that fails during operation increases the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until they have been repaired. Hyundai Translead will replace the lift gate cylinder pins, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 2, 2025. Owners may contact Hyundai Translead customer service at 1-800-251-0871. Hyundai Translead's number for this recall is 25E-025.
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 2 vehicles this is a small campaign: 98% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2026, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Hyundai Translead vehicles have been recalled over the structure 4 times before this, most recently in October 2023 as 23V685000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
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 Translead with NHTSA on June 10, 2025 as campaign 25V331000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
