The safety issue reported by NHTSA affects the Hybrid Propulsion System through a Voltage Protection Device (VPD) that can activate unexpectedly and cause a loss of power while driving in electric mode. This unintended shutdown raises the risk of a crash, especially in situations that require consistent power delivery. For owners of the 2017 Hyundai Sonata Plug-in Hybrid, addressing this recall is not optional: it restores the integrity of the high-voltage battery protection and eliminates the sudden-power-loss hazard. Ignoring an open recall may also affect insurance claims and roadside assistance outcomes in a crash scenario, and unresolved safety recalls can complicate inspections and resale. At Arapahoe Hyundai we prioritize your safety — our factory-trained technicians use OEM tools and verified Hyundai procedures to remove the VPD switch and install the updated Battery Management System with Overvoltage Protection Device. Please schedule service as soon as possible to secure a safe, at-cost repair that Hyundai covers fully under the recall program.
