1 Safety Recall 250: Rear Seat Belt Retractor Retainer Fastener Pin Inspection and Replacement – Dealer Best Practice September 28, 2023 Updates to this Document Date • Remedy Available – Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 23-01-081H published 09/28/2023 Recall Description The rear lefthand and righthand seat belt assemblies in the subject vehicles may have undergone improper pin installation, potentially inhibiting extension of the seat belt webbing. An inability to fasten the seat belt in an occupied seat poses a failure to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (“FMVSS”) number 208, “Occupant Crash Protection,” and FMVSS number 209, “Seat Belt Assemblies,” increasing the risk of injury in a crash. This bulletin provides the service procedure to inspect the retainer fastener pins and replace rear seat belt assemblies, if necessary. Applicable Vehicles (Certain) • 2024MY Kona (SX2) produced from 06/19/2023 – 09/02/2023 for sale in the U.S. Remedy Information The procedure provided in TSB 23-01-081H (or latest version) provides the recall’s service procedure to inspect the retainer fastener pins and replace the rear seat belt(s), if necessary. • Recommended Service Technician Training Level: Hyundai
Certified (or higher) who has also reviewed the SST – Borescope Tool – Video (SVCDSSTBORESCOPEW23_1226). Other Notes/Recommendations: • Most vehicles are expected to pass the inspection without any replacement required. • If a vehicle does not pass the inspection for either side, it is recommended for dealer to park the vehicle away from the service bay to allow them to focus on other work on that bay. • Dealer should offer alternative transportation while parts are on their way for the seat belt assembly. Recommended Alternative Transportation A Service Rental Vehicle (SRC) should be provided to customers who do not feel safe operating their vehicle until the remedy is complete. In addition, a SRC may be required based on any other additional work on the vehicle that may need to be addressed during customer’s visit. If a SRC is not available, other options such as a 3rd Party Rental or Rideshare may be provided. IMPORTANT: As required by federal law, dealers must not deliver new vehicles for sale or for lease to customers until all open recalls have been performed. Dealers must perform all open recalls on used vehicles, demo, and rental vehicles prior to placing them into customer use and whenever an affected vehicle is in the shop for any maintenance or repair. To check vehicle specific recall applicability, access the “Vehicle Information” screen via WebDCS. Warranty Information • This recall campaign pays for the following scenarios: o 0.4 M/H for inspection of the retainer fastener pins on both sides o 0.7 M/H for inspection of the retainer fastener pins on both sides and replacement of the left or right-side seat belt assembly o 1.1 M/H for inspection of the retainer fastener pins on both sides and replacement of both seat belt assemblies • Photos: Please refer to TSB 23-01-081H (or latest version) for repair validation sample photo(s) and additional details regarding specific digital documentation requirements.
