Hyundai Motor Company is recalling more than 61,000 Palisade SUVs in the U.S. after an issue with powered seats was linked to the death of a child, federal regulators said.
据路透社报道,NHTSA(美国国家公路交通安全管理局)表示,现代汽车正在美国召回超过61,000辆Palisade SUV,原因是电动座椅问题和一名儿童死亡相关。
The recall affects model year 2026 Palisade and Palisade Hybrid vehicles equipped with the Limited and Calligraphy trim packages, the automaker said in a recall report filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
在NHTSA的召回报告中,现代汽车表示,此次召回涉及2026款配备了Limited和Calligraphy两种配置的Palisade和Palisade Hybrid车型。
"The 2nd and 3rd row power seat assemblies equipped in the subject vehicles may not respond to contact with an occupant or object as intended during activation of certain powered seat functions, including the automatic power-folding (stow) function and the ‘one-touch’ tilt-and-slide (walk-in) feature of the 2nd row power seat assembly," the report said.
报告称,"受影响车辆所配备的第二排和第三排电动座椅总成,在启动某些电动座椅功能(包括自动电动折叠功能以及第二排电动座椅总成的‘一键式’倾斜滑动(步入)功能)时,对乘员或者物体的接触反应可能不符合预期。"
The announcement comes after a young child died in an incident involving a Palisade that is still under investigation, according to the automaker.
现代汽车称,在宣布此次召回之前,曾发生一起涉及Palisade的事故,导致一名幼童死亡,该事故仍在调查。
Reuters reported the victim was a 2-year-old girl from Ohio who was killed March 7.
路透社报道称,受害者是一名来自俄亥俄州的2岁女孩,于3月7日身亡。
"Hyundai is aware of a tragic incident involving a Palisade," the company said in a press release March 13. "While Hyundai does not yet have the full details and the incident is still under investigation, a young child lost her life. Hyundai extends its deepest sympathies to her family."
在3月13日的一份新闻稿中,现代汽车表示,"现代汽车获悉一起涉及Palisade的悲剧性事故。现代汽车还未掌握全部细节,事故仍在调查中,但一名幼童不幸丧生。我们向幼童的家人致以最深切的慰问。"
The South Korean automaker said last week it is pausing sales of the Palisades with the Limited and Calligraphy trim packages following the incident.
上周,现代汽车表示,鉴于此次事故,公司将暂停销售配备Limited和Calligraphy配置的Palisade车型。
Hyundai said in the recall notice it received four reports of minor injuries related to second-row seat operation.
在召回通知中,现代汽车称,已收到四起与第二排座椅操作相关的轻伤报告。
A recall remedy is under development. Until it becomes available, the automaker warned owners of the affected vehicles to use caution when operating the second- and third-row power-folding seat functions.
召回补救措施正在制定中。在措施出台前,现代汽车警告受影响车辆的车主,在操作第二排和第三排电动折叠座椅功能时要格外小心。
Hyundai also said owners should "avoid contacting the ‘one-touch’ tilt-and-slide button located on the 2nd row setback … during entry and exit of the 3rd row and take measures to prevent inadvertent activation of this feature."
现代汽车还表示,车主应"在进出第三排时,避免触碰位于第二排座椅靠背上的‘一键式’倾斜滑动按钮,并采取措施防止该功能被无意中启动。"
