2024 HYUNDAI KONA Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2024 Hyundai Kona has 5 recalls, the most serious being two separate fire risks: a 12-volt battery cable that can short circuit against the engine control module bracket in a crash, and an idle stop-start oil pump controller that can overheat during normal operation. Both fire risks originate in the engine compartment. The battery cable issue is triggered by crash forces shifting the cable into contact with the bracket, while the oil pump controller can overheat on its own, raising the risk of fire independent of a collision. On the occupant safety side, the rear outboard seatbelts may not extend or retract correctly, which means they may not hold rear passengers properly in a crash.
