Hyundai and Genesis performance models: fuel pump can fail high

Reported 2024-07-12 · Campaign 24V528000 · Model years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023

The pump that sends gasoline to the engine can fail. If that happens, the engine loses power and the vehicle may slow down or stall while you are driving, possibly in traffic or at highway speed. Dealers will update the engine computer software and, if an inspection shows it is needed, replace the fuel pump assembly. Both repairs are free. Hyundai began mailing owner letters September 9, 2024, with some earlier warning letters sent September 3, 2024.

Genesis G70, G80 and G90 turbo oil leak fire risk critical

Reported 2024-03-08 · Campaign 24V191000 · Model years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022

Cars with the 3.3-liter turbocharged V6 have a small pipe that feeds oil to the left turbocharger. That pipe can break down over time and leak. Oil dripping onto hot engine parts can catch fire under the hood. Dealers will replace the pipe free of charge. This recall replaces an earlier one (19V-538), so even if your car was repaired under that recall, it still needs the new repair.

Genesis sedans: water in starter can cause engine fire critical

Reported 2024-02-13 · Campaign 24V107000 · Model years: 2019

Water can get into the starter solenoid — a small electrical part that helps start the engine. Water there can cause a short circuit, which can start a fire under the hood. It can happen while you are driving or while the car is parked with the engine off. Hyundai says park outside and away from buildings, garages and carports until the repair is done. Dealers add a relay kit in the engine's fuse box at no cost.

⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).

Hyundai Sonata and Genesis G70 trunk release may fail medium

Reported 2022-03-28 · Campaign 22V196000 · Model years: 2019

These cars have a release inside the trunk so anyone shut in can get out. On the vehicles being recalled, the trunk latch can become damaged, and when it does, the trunk may no longer open from the inside. Someone inside the trunk could become trapped and injured. Nothing about how the car drives or stops is affected, but it is worth keeping children from playing in or near the trunk until the dealer inspects the latch and replaces part of it.

Genesis G70 anti-lock brake module can catch fire critical

Reported 2021-03-10 · Campaign 21V161000 · Model years: 2019, 2020, 2021

The G70 has a control box under the hood that runs the anti-lock brakes, the system that keeps the wheels from locking up during hard stops. The electricity inside that box can take a wrong path and short out. When that happens, it can get hot enough to start a fire in the engine compartment. It can happen while you are driving or while the car sits parked with the engine off. The dealer replaces a fuse on the unit.

⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).

Genesis G70 fuel pump defect can stall the engine high

Reported 2020-09-21 · Campaign 20V569000 · Model years: 2021

Some 2021 Genesis G70s with the 2.0-liter engine have a fuel pump with a tiny piece of leftover plastic inside. That bit can block the small nozzle that sends fuel to the engine. Without enough fuel, the engine can stall, meaning it suddenly stops running while you are driving. Hyundai dealers will inspect the fuel pump nozzle and repair it free of charge. Owner letters went out starting November 10, 2020.
