SEAT BELTS:FRONT
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2020-2022 Venue vehicles. In the event of a crash, the front driver-side and/or passenger-side seat belt pretensioners may explode upon deployment.
Consequence
An exploding seat belt pretensioner can project metal fragments into the vehicle, strike vehicle occupants, and result in injury.
Full campaign recordRemedy
Dealers will secure the seat belt pretensioners with a cap, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 25, 2022. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 231. This recall expands and replaces NHTSA recall number 21V-796 for Venue vehicles.

What the ratings mean
NHTSA gives the 2022 Hyundai Venue 4 out of 5 stars overall, below the 5-star median for the 17 comparable 2022 vehicles NHTSA rated in this class.
NHTSA published results for every NCAP test in this program, so the overall star rating rests on a complete set of crash and rollover results.
NHTSA's dynamic test put this vehicle's rollover probability at 14.3% in a single-vehicle crash — the figure behind the rollover star rating, published here because the star alone hides how wide each band is.

How this compares
At 31 MPG combined, the 2022 Hyundai Venue ranks 5th of 19 midsize cars EPA rated for 2022 — 3 MPG better than the 28 MPG median for that group.
That places it a little above the middle of its class. Fuel cost is close enough to its rivals that other running costs will probably matter more.
EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $2,000, $200 less than the $2,200 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $10,000, a $1,000 difference against a class-median vehicle.
Tailpipe CO₂ is 290 grams per mile — about 4.4 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.
