I have not "yet" had an incident but, because of the safety recall, I have been parking my vehicle outside for almost a year (since October 2023). It is now August 2024 and a part for my Hyundai Veloster 2014 is still not available. For an issue that may cause a fire, or indeed any recall issue, this is way too long for a remedy to become available! This has caused considerable inconvenience: scraping frost and cleaning off snow, constant dirt, and inability to park in parking garages. Additionally, the additional wear will reduce the value of the car when I sell it.

The Hyundai recall doesn't fix the problem, which is the ABS Module leaks brake fluid internally which can catch fire. The claimed "fix" puts in a low current fuse that supposedly electrically will lower the risk of a fire when the ABS leaks brake fluid internally and shorts out the electrical power to the ABS Module. The problem is that the ABS Module can develop an internal leak which causes a short that fries the ABS Module and can cause a fire by igniting the brake fluid. The lower current rated fuse can still cause a fire, so I don't see the NHTSA Recall No. 23V651000 as a real fix. I want a replacement of the brake fluid leak-prone ABS Module in my 2014 Hyundai Veloster Turbo so I can safely use and park my car indoors without the potential of a fire while parked or driving. I have not experienced a fire in the recalled vehicle, but I think I am entitled to a proper "fix". I am an electrical engineer with an MSEE degree and many US patents. I have been greatly inconvenienced by f...
