Buying a used 2020 Hyundai Nexo? Check these 4 recalls first
Two critical hydrogen recalls apply — leak sensors that may miss a leak, and a tank part that can break and release gas — both with park-outside warnings. A third covers loss of braking power, and a fourth covers remote parking that may move the vehicle unexpectedly, shared with the Sonata. The NHTSA complaint file is tiny: 7 unverified reports, no crashes, fires or injuries, with 5 of them under fuel/propulsion system.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify both hydrogen recalls are closed on this VIN at a Nexo-servicing dealer
- Demonstrate the remote parking feature and ask if its recall was done
- Confirm the braking-power recall repair and check brake pedal feel
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
