Hyundai Motor is recalling 141,000 2011-2014 Tucson crossovers to fix a problem with airbag that may not have been properly attached to the steering wheel, reports The Detroit News.
According to the automaker, there are reports of 141 incidents of improperly tightened bolts, but no reports of crashes or injuries related to the issue.
Informing the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the automaker said it is possible that the two bolts attaching the driver’s airbag to the steering wheel assembly were not properly tightened. Over time it could cause a rattle noise, or if both bolts become loose and detach the driver’s airbag from the steering wheel, which could then fail to operate properly in a crash.
