SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
- The defect
- Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2023-2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6, 2023-2026 Genesis G90, 2024-2026 Hyundai Santa Fe, and Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid vehicles. The driver and passenger seat belt anchors may detach.
- What it can cause
- A detached seat belt anchor will not adequately restrain the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and reinforce or replace the seat belt anchors, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed beginning May 29, 2026. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460 and Genesis customer service at 844-340-9741. Hyundai's numbers for this recall are 298 and 032G. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov April 8, 2026.
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 294,448 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 96% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Hyundai vehicles have been recalled over the seat belts 20 times before this, most recently in March 2026 as 26V169000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 10 of the 13 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 557 complaints with NHTSA, 380 of them before this campaign was filed. 22 of those name the seat belts, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in July 2023, 2 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 19 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V229000 (fuel system, gasoline), 26V047000 (electrical system), 25V833000 (electrical system), 25V809000 (air bags).
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 April 6, 2026 as campaign 26V218000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
