What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: This recall involves a missing safety warning label for a high-risk occupant protection device (airbag) affecting infants and children. While no injuries have been reported, the label deficiency prevents drivers from being informed of a known hazard, meeting the criterion for High severity.
Plain-English summary
Hyundai Motor America is recalling certain 2025 Hyundai Tucson vehicles because the glove box airbag warning label may be missing. These vehicles do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208 (Occupant Crash Protection).
Without this warning label, drivers may not be aware of the increased risk that an airbag poses to infants and children riding in the front seat, which could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants.
Hyundai will mail replacement warning labels to owners at no charge. Owner notification letters were sent on October 4, 2024. Owners can contact Hyundai Customer Service at 1-855-371-9460 or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) for more information.
