Known issues on the 2023 Santa Cruz. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first concerns the roof moldings, which may detach: a detached roof molding could become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. The second applies to vehicles potentially equipped with a tow hitch harness, where a fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury. Owners have filed 106 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 43 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are in this manual.

From checking exterior trim retention after a recall notice to tracing the tow hitch wiring or keeping the turbocharged 2.5L on its service intervals, it holds you to the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2023 Santa Cruz.
