What's wrong, in plain English

Some Genesis G80 and GV80 vehicles equipped with certain turbo engines have a fuel tube that connects the high pressure fuel pump to the fuel rail. This tube may not seal properly. Because the seal may fail, fuel can leak out from where the tube connects to the fuel system.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Genesis or Hyundai dealer, or call Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460.
3. Dealers will replace the high pressure fuel tube, free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?
