- The defect
- Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2015-2016 Genesis, 2017-2019 Genesis G80, Genesis G90, and 2019 Genesis G70 vehicles. Water may enter the starter solenoid and cause an electrical short, which can result in an engine compartment fire while parked or driving.
- What it can cause
- An engine compartment fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does

Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 90,907 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 92% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2015 to 2019, so the oldest vehicles on it were 9 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Hyundai vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 19 times before this, most recently in December 2023 as 23V901000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 9 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 678 complaints with NHTSA, 408 of them before this campaign was filed. 213 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in January 2015, 9 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V528000 (fuel system, gasoline), 24V191000 (engine and engine cooling), 22V196000 (latches/locks/linkages), 21V161000 (service brakes, hydraulic).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Hyundai Motor America with NHTSA on February 13, 2024 as campaign 24V107000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
