The Hyundai Canada brake fluid leak recall was announced because short circuits could cause fires.
The short-circuit can occur when brake fluid leaks into the antilock brake system (ABS) control module. A fire can occur while driving or even when the vehicle is parked and turned off.
This Hyundai recall replaces a previous Transport Canada recall issued in 2023, but for the Hyundai Sonata only the Sonata Hybrid is included in this recall.
Transport Canada says Hyundai dealers will replace the ABS module fuses, but the agency didn't announce when recall notices will be mailed.
Owners of the recalled vehicles may call 888-216-2626 and ask about Hyundai Canada recall number R0246 (Transport Canada recall number 2024-080).
