NHTSA recall 04V178000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Hyundai Motor America
Details
What's wrong: Some passenger vehicles contain a fuel tank assembly valve that may not close properly. If a vehicle with a fuel tank assembly valve that is not properly closed were to roll over, fuel spillage may occur.
Why it matters: Fuel spillage in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire.
The fix: Dealers will install an additional fuel tank assembly valve. Owner notification began on June 30, 2004. Owners should contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151.
