							| Description | 
							Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2011-2014 Sonata and 2011-2015 Sonata Hybrid vehicles previously repaired under recall campaign 17V-152.  The seat belt linkages for both front seat belts may detach from the seat belt anchor pretensioners. | 
						 
						
							| Consequences | 
							If the seat belt linkage detaches from the seat belt anchorage, it can not properly restrain the occupant in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury. | 
						 
						
							| Corrective action | 
							Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will again verify the connection between the seat belt linkage and the pretensioner and additionally install a warning label to prevent future seat belt linkage detachment, free of charge.  The recall began November 6, 2017.  Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460.  Hyundai's number for this recall is 169. |

							Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. |
