Nov 23 (Reuters) - South Korean carmaker Hyundai Motor ( HYMTF )

is recalling about 42,465 vehicles in the U.S. due

to improperly routed wiring that may increase the risk of a

crash, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

said on Saturday.

The recall includes certain 2025 Tucson and Santa Cruz

vehicles.

The U.S. auto safety regulator said that a vehicle

transmission that could move out of "Park" mode without the

driver pressing the brake pedal could cause the vehicle to roll

away, raising the risk of a crash.

On Friday, the automaker also recalled over 145,000 electric

vehicles in the U.S. due to a loss of drive power.
