NHTSA recall 20V061000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Hyundai Motor America
Details
What's wrong: On February 21, 2020 Hyundai expanded the recall to include 46,425 model year 2007-2008 entourage and 2007 santa fe vehicles. Moisture may enter the anti-lock brake (ABS) module and result in an electrical short.
Why it matters: An electrical short within the ABS module may cause an engine compartment fire, even when the car is turned off, increasing the risk of an injury.
The fix: Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will install a relay in the vehicle's main junction box to prevent the risk of an ABS short-circuit while the car is turned off, free of charge. The recall began April 2, 2020.
