DEFECT #1 - EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS


Posted on: 1994-09-19
Description
The tire inflation pressure label affixed to the left rear door states that the vehicle capacity is 1,100 pounds.  This information is incorrect.  The correct vehicle capacity weight is 860 pounds.  This does not conform to the requirements of fmvss no.  110, tire selection and rims.

Consequence
Consequence of non-compliance: loading of the vehicle beyond the capacity weight can cause tire and vehicle damage that can result in a vehicle crash.

Corrective Action
Hyundai will provide owners with a new label showing the correct vehicle capacity weight with instructions for application.

Posted on: 1995-08-31

One or both of the rear suspension lower spring seats are not securely attached to the shock absorber and can slide lower onto the shock absorber than intended.  The rear spring would no longer function to support the vehicle body at its normal height.

Consequence
Loss of rear spring support can increase the potential for a vehicle accident if it occurs while the vehicle is moving.

Dealers will inspect the vehicle to determine whether the rear shock absorbers are from the suspect production.  If the shock absorbers are from the suspect production, the shock absorber/spring seat assemblies will be replaced.
