Hyundai and Kia have issued a recall for nearly 485, 000 SUVs (and a handful of sedans) due to the risk of engine bay fires, warning owners to park the vehicles outside until the repair work has been completed.
The problem affects 126, 747 Kias —certain K900 sedans from model years 2016–2018 and all Sportage SUVs from model years 2014–2016.
Hyundai has a bigger task, as it’s recalling 357, 830 vehicles split between the Santa Fe (model years 2016–2018, not equipped with smart cruise control), the Santa Fe Sport (model years 2017-2018, not equipped with smart cruise control), the Santa Fe XL (model year 2019, not really equipped with smart cruise control), and the Tucson (model many years 2014–2015).
