Q&A: Recall 198 – Non-Crash Engine Fires 12/1/2020
Summary
Hyundai is conducting a safety recall in the United States to address a condition of engine failures resulting in non-crash vehicle fires. Hyundai is initiating this action in response to closing discussions with NHTSA on investigations PE19-003 to ensure the safety of its vehicles and the continued satisfaction of Hyundai
Q1: What is the issue?
A1: An engine compartment fire can occur while driving for many reasons and depending on the severity of the fire, the identification of the cause can be untraceable. The engines in the subject vehicles may have been produced with conditions that can cause premature wear of the connecting rod bearings. A worn connecting rod bearing could result in abnormal knocking noise from the engine and/or illumination of the oil pressure warning light.
Q2: What are the affected vehicles?
A2: The subject vehicles include:
- Certain model year 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe vehicles equipped with 2.4-liter “Theta II” MPI engines and produced from January 10, 2012 through July 3, 2012.
- Certain model year 2011-2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid vehicles equipped with 2.4-liter “Theta II” MPI HEV engines and produced from June 2, 2010 through December 17, 2013.
- Certain model year 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid vehicles equipped with 2.0-liter “Nu” GDI HEV engines and produced by February 25, 2015 through April 25, 2016.
- Certain model year 2015-2016 Hyundai Veloster vehicles equipped with 1.6-liter “Gamma” GDI engines and produced by May 26, 2014 through July 13, 2016.
Q3: What is the safety concern?
A3: If the vehicle is continually operated with a worn connecting rod bearing, the engine could become damaged and eventually stall the vehicle during operation. In limited instances, a damaged connecting rod could puncture the engine block and cause engine oil to leak, which, in the presence of hot surfaces in the engine compartment, could increase the risk of a fire.
Q4: Have there been any accidents or injuries?
A4: To date, Hyundai is not aware of any crashes or injuries/fatalities in the U.S. attributable to this condition.
Q5: What will be done during the recall service at the dealer?
A5: Hyundai Motor America plans to notify owners of affected vehicles to return their vehicles to their Hyundai dealers for an engine inspection test to determine the presence of any bearing damage. If the bearing is damaged, the engine will be replaced with a new one. As an added level of protection, all affected vehicles will receive an enhanced engine control software update containing a new Knock Sensor Detection System (“KSDS”) program. The KSDS continuously monitors engine vibrations for unusual patterns potentially indicating an abnormal condition with the engine, such as a damaged connecting rod bearing, that could lead to an engine failure.
The remedy procedure will be performed at no charge. Hyundai will provide reimbursement to owners for repairs according to the plan submitted to federal authorities in May, 2018.
Q6: When will owners be notified?
A6: Owners were mailed interim notification letters beginning in late January 2021 regarding a remedy not yet available. Owners will be mailed final letters regarding a remedy available in late March 2021/early April 2021.
Description: Certain vehicles listed below may exhibit an abnormal knocking noise from the engine. Follow the procedure to inspect the vehicle to determine the applicable repair procedure based on the inspection results.

RECALL 198 ATTACHMENT A
CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS LEADING UP TO DEFECT DECISION
- March 2019
NHTSA opened Preliminary Evaluation no. 19-003 “to assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety-related consequences of alleged defects relating to non-collision vehicle fires in the 20112014 Sonata Investigation and 2011-2014 Santa Fe.”
- April 2019
In connection with PE 19-003, NHTSA issued an Information Request to HMA that sought data and information regarding non-collision fire incidents within an expanded range of Hyundai vehicles, namely all HMA vehicles of all model years equipped with Theta II, Lambda II, Gamma and Nu engines, thereby bringing into scrutiny a wide range of Hyundai model and model year vehicles. Further, the Information Request sought information regarding non-collision fire incidents based on the definition of fire under 49 CFR § 579.4, which also includes “thermal events and fire-related phenomena such as smoke and melt,” thereby requiring HMA to search, collect, and produce a substantial volume of documents and data referring to potentially fire-related phenomena standing alone (such as “smoke” or “melt”) without any evidence of flame, burning, or combustion. HMA also understood that at about the same time, NHTSA was seeking to collecting similar information on the incidence of non-collision fires from other automakers in the United States market.
- August 2019
HMA completed its response to NHTSA’s Information Request. As was discussed with NHTSA shortly thereafter, HMA reasonably believed that while certain vehicles already subject to recall had an arguably higher incidence of non-collision fires that were already being addressed by ongoing vehicle recalls, in the absence of additional, comparative data, HMA’s data did not indicate elevated or unusual rates of non-collision related fires in Hyundai vehicles.
- April 2020 – June 2020
On April 30, 2020, HMA proactively shared information with the agency on the completion rate and effectiveness of the Knock Sensor Detection System (“KSDS”) software aimed at enhancing the detection of gradual engine damage/wear, in mitigating non-collision fires. HMA continued to provide recurring updates on the deployment and effectiveness of KSDS to NHTSA.
- July 2020 – November 2020
NHTSA shared with HMA its views on the data produced in relation to the aforementioned
Information Request, as well as the data apparently shared by competitor automakers with the Agency. With NHTSA’s understanding and agreement, HMA updated and re-analyzed the occurrence of non-collision fire incidents in certain vehicles in discussion. Following additional discussion, the involved vehicles were determined by HMA in discussion with NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation (“ODI”). As to each of the involved vehicles, while the precise cause of noncollision fire can sometimes vary and due to the limitations of fire investigation there is often incomplete information, HMA and ODI agreed that the vehicles appeared to have experienced above average rates of hole-in-block engine fires that ordinarily result from a seized engine that causes a connecting rod to break, puncture the engine block, and thereby potentially allow engine oil to escape the block, come in contact with other hot surfaces in the engine compartment, and produce localized smoke and then fire in the engine compartment. Seized engines in this context most often result from manufacturing variances in terms of machined surface roughness, machining debris, and geometric fit among the crankshaft, connecting rod, and engine bearing components.
On November 23, 2020, HMA convened its North American Safety Decision Authority and decided to conduct a safety recall to address the above condition in affected vehicles in the U.S. market.

Non-crash Vehicle Fires
NHTSA ID: PE19003
Dated opened: March 29, 2019
In a letter dated Jun 11, 2018, the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) petitioned the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to initiate a safety defect investigation into non-collision related fires on model year (MY) 2011-2014 Kia Optima and Sorento, and Hyundai Sonata and Santa Fe vehicles. In a letter dated July 24, 2018, CAS requested that MY 2010-2015 Kia Soul vehicles be added to the petition. CAS stated that there is a higher number of complaints to NHTSA regarding non-crash fires on these vehicles compared to other similar vehicles. The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) had already opened a Recall Query (RQ17-004) on all Hyundai vehicles equipped with Theta II engines for engine failures that may cause stalling and fires. The query covers most of the petition subject Sonata and Santa Fe vehicles.
On August 21, 2018, ODI opened a Defect Petition (DP18-003) to evaluate whether to grant or deny the CAS petition. ODI sent an Information Request letter to Hyundai (September 2018) requesting information on all engine and non-engine related fires in the petition Hyundai vehicles. ODI performed extensive analysis on the information obtained from Hyundai. During the DP18-003 analysis, Hyundai initiated three additional safety recalls related to engine compartment fires on certain petitioned and non-petitioned vehicles, (nearly 240,000 total vehicles: Recalls 18V-934, 19V-063, and 19V-204). In addition to engine compartment fires, ODI has received allegations of vehicle fires affecting other components, including taillight housings, taillight wire harnesses, and/or light bulbs. Based on ODI’s review of the applicable materials, including responses to Information Requests sent to multiple manufacturers, Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQ), and Early Warning Data, NHTSA has decided to grant the petition.
The petition is hereby granted. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety-related consequences of alleged defects relating to non-collision vehicle fires in the 2011-2014 Sonata and 2011-2014 Santa Fe. While prior recalls of vehicles covered by this PE have primarily related to engine fires, NHTSA’s Preliminary Evaluation is not limited to engine components and may cover additional vehicle systems or components as well.
Attached is a list of the reference numbers for the 160 VOQs cited above.
