RECALLCampaign #20V543000

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) recalled certain 2019-2021 Tucson vehicles on September 4, 2020. On December 30, 2020, Hyundai expanded the recall population, and added certain 2016-2018 Tucson vehicles. The Anti-lock Brake Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit (HECU) could corrode internally and cause an electrical short, possibly resulting in an engine compartment fire.

Fix: Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the HECU fuse. For 2019-2021 model years, the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) software will also be updated. Recall repairs will be performed free of charge. Owners are advised to park outside and away from structures as a precaution until the recall repair is complete. The recall began November 2, 2020. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 195.

Your ABS brake system has malfunctioned, causing the brake pad on your driver's side rear wheel to break apart and fall off. You noticed a squealing noise while driving, and after the metal piece detached, your ABS brakes stopped working altogether. The issue will likely require replacing the damaged ABS brake pad and inspecting the brake system to determine why the pad failed.

I HAVE BEEN GETTING RECALL NOTICES FOR MY 2017 TUCSON SINCE DECEMBER 2020 FOR THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) BUT AM UNABLE TO GET IT FIXED. ACCORDING TO CALLS I MADE IN DECEMBER, JANUARY, FEBRUARY AND MARCH, THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. IT'S RECALL NUMBER 20V-543 HYUNDAI RECALL NUMBER 195. I FINALLY GOT AN APPOINTMENT WITH HYUNDAI IN BROKEN ARROW OK FOR MARCH16TH AS THEY REPORTED PARTS HAD JUST COME IN. TOOK MY HYUNDAI IN AT APPOINTED TIME, WAS TOLD THEY ARE OUT OF PARTS AND WILLLCALL WHEN THEY CAN MAKE REPAIRS. MEANWHILE, THE RECALL NOTICE SAYS IT'S SAFE TO PARK IN MY GARAGE AND THE ABS MODULES COULD CORRODE AND CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT WHICH WOULD INCREASE ODDS OF AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE. THEY HAVE NO CARS TO LOAN ME UNTIL IT IS FIXED. I DRIVE MY GRANDCHILDREN AROUND AND THIS SEEMS IRRESPONSIBLE ON HYUNDAI'S PART AND UNSAFE ON MY PART. IN ADDITION, THE PARTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN HELD FOR ME SINCE I HAD AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT DONE WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. NOW I'M BACK ON SOME WAITING LIST...........I DON'T KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD THE NOTICES.
