If you own a 2013 or 2014 Hyundai Sonata, Hyundai invites you to make a quick trip to the shop. The company has informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that it is issuing a recall on 215,171 2013 and 2014 Sonatas to address a fuel line issue.

The problem affects the fuel lines used with the 2.0L and 2.4L engines. These lines can crack due to heat-related wear and tear, allowing fuel to leak out. A similar campaign was launched in 2020 to address the same problem. So this is another invitation for owners.

According to Hyundai, the problem stems from heat in the engine compartment slowly causing deterioration of the low-pressure fuel lines that run between the primary fuel pump and the high-pressure direct injection pump that delivers fuel to the cylinders. This wear can cause the lines to crack, allowing fuel to leak. If it comes in contact with a hot enough surface, a fire can start. Hyundai says there have been no such cases reported to date.

The campaign covers 2013 and 2014 model-year Sonata sedans. While the number of vehicles being recalled is significant, Hyundai estimates that only about 1 percent of the vehicles covered by the campaign will have a problem. That's at least in part because the 2013 model year was included in the 2020 campaign, but the previous fix doesn't appear to have done the job in all cases.
