What the hazard is
If the bonnet is not secured correctly there is a risk of the bonnet lifting while the vehicle is in motion. This will restrict the driver's visibility, posing a risk of injury to the vehicle occupants and other road users.
What to do
Affected owners will be contacted by direct mail, advising them to contact their local Hyundai dealer to arrange an appointment for the inspection and repair of the vehicle. For Hyundai dealer locations and Service department contact details consumers can go to www.hyundai.com.au/dealer.
