What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2020 Genesis G70 vehicles. A component within the Rack Mounted Motor Driven Power Steering (R-MDPS) Assembly may have been manufactured incorrectly, possibly resulting in the steering locking or becoming difficult while driving.

The risk

A loss of steering control can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Hyundai dealers have replaced the R-MDPS Assemblies, free of charge, prior to the sale of the vehicles. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 004G.

Notes

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.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
