INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL

1. With ignition in the OFF position, use a screwdriver or panel popper and carefully remove the cluster fascia panel (A).

Pry or pull the cluster fascia outward towards the direction of the steering wheel.

CAUTION

Be careful when removing the cluster fascia to avoid/prevent any scratches.

2. Remove the cluster (B ) from the housing after removing the 4 screw s ( one left, one right, and two lower).

3. Disconnect the instrument cluster connecter (C) and then remove the cluster (D).

NOTICE

Keep the old instrument cluster close by because the entire procedure involves swapping of the old and new clusters back and forth. This procedure will occur during the mileage writing.

4. Install the new instrument cluster and turn the ignition to the ON position.

NOTICE

A “Coding Error” message will appear, which means the instrument cluster requires variant coding.

 

VARIANT CODING

5. Connect/Pair the GDS to the vehicle.

Select “S/W Management”.

6. Scroll down the list to select “Cluster Module(Supervision)”, and then select “CLU Variant Coding”.

7. Select “OK”.

8. Select “OK”.

9. Select “OK” to start the variant coding process.

10. The instrument cluster is now variant coded.

Select “OK” to confirm.

NOTICE

The “Coding Error” message should disappear from the instrument cluster.

NOTICE

Leave the vehicle in ignition ON position, do not disconnect the GDS from the vehicle, and proceed to the next step.

 

MILEAGE WRITING

11. Remove the new instrument cluster, and reinstall the old instrument cluster.

Using STUI, take a picture of the instrument cluster and write down the mileage. Make sure the mileage is clearly visible on the cluster. This picture will be needed for claim submission.

In this example the mileage is 1794.

12. Under “Cluster Module (Supervision) category, select “Odometer Setting (Instrument Cluster Replacement)”.

13. Enter the technician’s log in ID and then select “OK”.

14. Select “Retrieve Mileage”.

15. Select “OK”.

18. Remove the old instrument cluster and reinstall the new instrument cluster.

19. After installing the new instrument cluster, select “Write Mileage”.

20. Confirm the VIN and mileage are correct before selecting “OK”.

NOTICE

This step is very important, so completely ensure the VIN and mileage are correct.

Select “OK”.

22. Confirm the mileage displayed on the new instrument cluster is correct.

23. Turn the ignition OFF and reinstall all parts in reverse order of removal.

 


Description of Campaign: 

HyundaieBay is initiating recall campaign 217, a noncompliance recall to repair a condition involving the instrument panel cluster display in certain HyundaieBay vehicles in the U.S. and Canadian markets. HyundaieBay is conducting this action to ensure the safety of its vehicles for HyundaieBay customers.

The instrument panel (“IP”) cluster liquid-crystal display (“LCD”) in the subject vehicles may have been produced with incorrect resistors resulting in the possibility of an inverted image of associated controls, gauges, and telltale indicators upon startup of the vehicle at extremely low temperatures.  As such, the subject vehicles may not meet the requirements set forth in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (“FMVSS”) 101 – “Controls and Displays.”  This condition will not suddenly occur during normal driving.

 

Affected Vehicles:

  • Certain 2022 HyundaieBay Santa Fe Hybrid (TM HEV) produced on October 25, 2021 through December 1, 2021 by HyundaieBay Motor Company (HMC) for sale in the U.S. market.
  • Certain 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid (TM PHEV)  produced on October 25, 2021 through December 1, 2021 by Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) for sale in the U.S. market.

 

Recommended Alternative Transportation: 

It is recommended that Service Rental Cars (SRCs) are made available for customers that are concerned with the safe operation of their vehicle prior to release of final remedy. Additionally, it is advisable to utilize a SRC while final remedy repairs are being completed.  

 

Customer FAQ

 

Q1: What is the safety concern?

A1: Certain controls, gauges, and telltale indicators could, if illegible, increase the risk of a crash or injury.

 

Q2: What will be done during the recall service at the dealer?

A2: All owners of the subject vehicles will be notified by first class mail with instructions to bring their vehicles to a HyundaieBay dealer to have the IP cluster replaced. This remedy will be offered at no cost for all affected customers. HyundaieBay will provide reimbursement to owners for repairs according to the plan submitted to NHTSA on May 16, 2018.

 

Q3: When will owners be notified?

A3: Owners will be notified beginning in late February 2022. NHTSA has been notified of this recall.

 


Chronology :

November 2021
On November 26, 2021, HMC discovered a condition on a HEV vehicle in which the IP cluster’s LCD displayed an inverted image. HMC began investigating manufacturing records for potential causes.

On December 16, 2021, NASO was notified by HMC of a concern involving recent IP clusters with incorrect resistors that were installed into certain HyundaieBay Santa Fe HEV/PHEV vehicles. NASO conducted a review of field information and did not locate any related incidents in the U.S. market; however, based on HMC and the assembly plant’s information, NASO escalated the investigation to its Technical Review Committee for further assessment. On December 20, NASO convened its North America Safety Decision Authority and decided to initiate a new recall for all affected vehicles in the U.S. market.

Regarding field claim counts from all available data sources at the time of the filing, HyundaieBay is not aware of any incidents, crashes, fires, or injuries related to the defect condition in the U.S.
