Hyundai service campaign LA2
Hyundai filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Nov 11, 2025, received Nov 4, 2025, about the electrical system — 4 documents under this number: 25-01-079H-1 DCS, 25-01-079H-1 TSB, 25-01-079H TSB, 25-01-079H DCS. It names 2 model years (2025–2026). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationCertain Santa Cruz (NXT) vehicles may exhibit a Data Communication Unit (DCU) software error due to the internal timer initialization logic not being implemented. The DCU module may shut down telematics services after one year. Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 25-01-079H provides instructions to perform a software update for the DCU module. This update can also be conducted via OTA. The customer can complete on his/her own if he/she has an active subscription to Hyundai Bluelink. A visit to the dealership is not required. Deployment of the OTA to Bluelink customers is planned starting the week of 11/03/25.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Hyundai LA2 a recall?
No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the LA2 repair free?
A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
Which vehicles does LA2 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 2 model years: 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz, 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
