defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you should
immediately inform the National Highway

addition to notifying HYUNDAI MOTOR

complaints, it may open an investigation,
and if it finds that a safety defect exists in
a group of vehicles, it may order a recall
and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA
cannot become involved in individual
problems between you, your dealer, or
HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA.
