What is being recalled

Hyundai Motor Company is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Elantra vehicles manufactured from November 12, 2010, through March 5, 2013. A support bracket attached to the headliner may become displaced during a side curtain airbag deployment.

Why it is dangerous

If the headliner support bracket makes contact with an occupant during a crash, it may cause a laceration injury.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will apply adhesive strips to the headliner, free of charge. The safety recall began during April 2013. Owners may contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's recall campaign number is 109.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 13V-115 when calling a dealer.
