Check by VIN
A campaign rarely covers every Hyundai Accent of a given year. Enter your 17-character VIN to find the recall campaigns filed for your make, model and model year. The VIN is on the driver’s side of the dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the door-jamb label, and on your registration and insurance documents.
Is a recall still open on your vehicle? Only NHTSA’s official VIN check can say whether a campaign applies to your exact vehicle and whether the repair has already been done.
Your VIN is decoded with NHTSA’s public vPIC service to identify the make, model and year. It is not stored and is not added to any page address.

Common questions
Does the Hyundai Accent have recalls?
Yes. NHTSA lists 25 safety recall campaigns for the Hyundai Accent, covering model years 1995–2022. Most involve lighting, visibility and suspension.
Which Hyundai Accent model year has the most recalls?
On NHTSA’s records the 1995 Hyundai Accent has the most campaigns, with 5. A higher count does not by itself mean a less safe vehicle: some campaigns are small compliance fixes, and newer models have had less time to accumulate campaigns.
How do I find out if my Hyundai Accent is affected?
Choose your model year below to read each campaign, then check your VIN on NHTSA’s lookup. Campaigns usually cover a production range, so two cars of the same year can differ.
