WASHINGTON, D.C. -

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Hyundai Motor America is recalling 35,000 vehicles to fix a support bracket.

Included in the campaign are Elantra Touring vehicles from 2010 through 2012 model years. The units were manufactured from Dec. 15, 2009 through May 7, 2012.

NHTSA indicated the affected vehicles have a support bracket attached to the headliner that may become displaced during a side curtain airbag deployment.

“If the headliner support bracket makes contact with an occupant during a crash, it may cause a laceration injury,” officials said.

Hyundai told regulators that the OEM will notify owners, and franchised dealers will apply adhesive strips to the headliner, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by mid-August.

In the meantime, owners may contact Hyundai customer service at (800) 633-5151 and reference recall No. 117.
