What is being recalled
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2015 Genesis vehicles manufactured February 21, 2014, to January 24, 2015. Water may leak into the rear combination lamp assemblies and cause an incorrect gear display on the instrument panel or a delay in the engagement of the selected gear when the vehicle is shifted from Park to Reverse or Drive.
Why it is dangerous
If the incorrect gear is being displayed, the vehicle may move in an unintended direction, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will apply pads to prevent water intrusion into the combination lamp housing, free of charge. The recall began on April 14, 2015. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for this recall is 128.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 15V-097 when calling a dealer.
