Service bulletins

10 bulletins

Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued an urgent safety advisory regarding dangerous, counterfeit driver‑side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN), that have been identified in U.S. vehicles following prior crashes, theft, or non‑certified airbag replacements. These inflators are not approved for use, may rupture during deployment, and have caused serious injuries and fatalities. Please see attached announcement, provided by NHTSA, for more details.

DTN DL

Other

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has identified the presence of substandard and dangerous driver’s-side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN). These inflators were not supplied, approved, or authorized by the vehicle manufacturers and have primarily been found in vehicles that previously experienced a crash and underwent airbag replacement using non-genuine parts. These dangerous inflators have ruptured during deployment, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to metal fragments entering the vehicle cabin. To date, Hyundai is aware of three people who have died while driving a Hyundai vehicle with one of these substandard replacement airbag inflators that deployed in what likely would have been a survivable crash. NHTSA has issued a public advisory urging vehicle owners and service professionals to have vehicles inspected if there is reason to believe that a non-genuine replacement airbag may have been installed. Vehicles with salvage or rebuilt titles, prior airbag deployments, or unknown repair histories may present a higher risk. NHTSA strongly cautions against self-inspection by vehicle owners and recommends inspection by trained technicians.

Warranty Program/Extension

Certain 2019 - 2022 model year Veloster N, 2022 - 2023 model year Elantra N, and 2022 - 2023 model year Kona N vehicles may have a Fuel Control Valve (FCV) in the High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) assemblies that could allow excess fuel to enter the fuel pump. This condition may result in a reduction or loss of motive power at low speeds. The vehicle will also have Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0088. The warranty coverage for the High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) has been extended to 15 years or 150,000 miles from the date of original retail delivery or date of first use and is valid for original and subsequent owners.

25-FL-002H TSB

Warranty Program/Extension

Certain 2019-2022MY Veloster N (JSN), 2022-2023MY Elantra N (CN7N), and 2022-2023MY Kona N (OSN) vehicles are equipped with high pressure fuel pump (HPFP) assemblies that have fuel control valves (FCV) that could allow excess fuel to enter the fuel pump due to gradual wear of the FCV plunger. An air/fuel mixture that runs too “rich” may result in a reduction or loss of motive power at low speeds. The vehicle will also have Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0088. Hyundai is extending warranty coverage for the HPFP under this condition to 15 years or 150,000 miles from the date of original retail delivery or date of first use (whichever occurs first) and is valid for original and subsequent owners.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

Certain Elantra N (CN7 N), Kona N (OS N), and Veloster N (JS N) vehicles may have DTC P1326 set due to water intrusion in the knock sensor connector during heavy rain or car wash conditions. There is no abnormal engine noise present, and the vehicle may enter “limp home” mode.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

N Vehicles are designed to maximize dynamic steering performance. In normal Ackerman steering geometry, the inner front tire turns more than the outer tire to help cornering in low-speed situations, i.e., parking lot maneuvering or sharp U-turns. N vehicles have a steering geometry optimized for performance driving. The N vehicle’s steering angle difference between the front wheels is reduced to enhance cornering performance. While this helps in high performance driving conditions, it can cause a higher level of tire side scrub that may create a slow shudder or vibration while turning at full steering lock. The feel is similar to turning a 4WD vehicle on dry asphalt when locked in 4WD. This shudder or vibration at parking lot speeds is normal, and no repairs should be performed. Additionally, the summer tires on the N vehicles can make the shudder or vibration more pronounced in cold ambient conditions.

Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
