On certain Niro and Niro Plug-in Hybrid vehicles, fluid inside the vehicle can leak onto the circuit board inside the hydraulic clutch actuator, a part connected to the transmission. When this happens, it can result in a fire starting in the engine compartment. A fire increases the risk of injury to the driver, passengers, and anyone else near the vehicle.
