Hyundai and Kia are telling the owners of nearly 92,000 vehicles in the U.S. to park them outside because an electronic controller in an oil pump can overheat and cause fires.

    At least they issued a recall this time. People can whine about Ford all day but they do proper recalls these days.

      Though their other solution to the lack of ignition kill switch problem allowing people to steal your car with a USB cable was to send out a steering wheel lock to people (like the Club people used back in the 90s)

        Yep. And now they’re facing a class action about the charge ports overheating on their EVs because those suing know that Hyundai Motor Group won’t recall to properly fix the issue. Makes you think the warranty isn’t worth the paper it’s written on.
