What is wrong

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2013-2014 Sonata vehicles. The low pressure fuel hose that connects the low pressure fuel pump to the direct injection fuel pump may crack over time due to heat generated within the engine compartment.

The risk

If the fuel line cracks, a fuel leak can occur, increasing the risk of a fire.

The fix

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the low-pressure fuel hose for damage or leaking, replacing it as necessary. If no damage or leaking is found, heat-protective tape will be installed. Repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began August 10, 2020. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-[removed]. Hyundai's number for this recall is 189. This recall has been replaced by NHTSA recall number 22V-314.
