Sonata recall 169. Started Oct 4, 2017. Seating belt linkage detaches from seat belt anchorage in an accident. No remedy given, nor letter received on what to do. Car would be cant resell in the future if they dont fix. A warning sticker that is supposedly put on by a Hyundai dealership does not help with car value. Thank you so much.
