It’s time for another fire-risk recall from the Korean duo! Yet another problem for their infamous decade of vehicles '10-'19 roughly. Skipping immobilizers, undersized wiring (fire), leaking brake fluid (fire), garbage GDI 4-cyl engines (fire), leaking high pressure fuel pumps (fire), trailer wiring defects (fire) and more just weren’t enough. Now another brake fluid leak in the braking system can cause another short and cause a fire.
The “fix” is a fuse replacement. It doesn’t fix the actual leak so it’s a band-aid at best. But also par for the course for the duo.
Weird that it’s just a fuse replacement. I’m not sure that makes sense.
There was an earlier recall on the auto braking system on some high-end HKG cars (Stinger, g70) where they also just put in a lower rated fuse. So now in an emergency the system will. Blow the fuse instead of work but maybe catch fire? Seems fishy.
I feel like these companies shouldn’t get away with not fixing the root problem.
