Steps to Take If Your Elantra Is Part of the Recall

  • Check Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on Hyundai’s official website or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) site to confirm if your car is included in the recall.
  • Contact your local Hyundai dealership to schedule a free inspection and repair. Hyundai typically provides parts and labor at no cost during recalls.
  • Avoid relying solely on the rearview camera for reversing until the issue is resolved. Use mirrors and look over your shoulder to ensure safety.
  • Stay updated with any new information from Hyundai regarding the recall and repair timelines by signing up for alerts on their website.

Why Addressing This Recall Matters

The rearview camera is a critical safety feature that helps prevent accidents while backing up. Malfunctions could lead to reduced visibility and increase the risk of collisions with pedestrians, objects, or other vehicles. Getting your 2018 Hyundai Elantra inspected and repaired promptly ensures your safety and that of others on the road.
