Contaminated EGR valve sensors could cause the engines in certain Hyundais to stall, potentially putting drivers and passengers in danger
Hyundai is recalling 7,349 Elantras, 2,364 Venues, and 3,798 Konas from the 2024 model year. The vehicles may have been equipped with a bad exhaust gas recirculation valve sensor that can short out and cause the engine to stall. The automaker will replace the EGR valve assemblies in all 13,511 vehicles, at not cost to the owners. We've noted before that making cars is very hard work, but assembling them correctly is also very fiddly, requiring a staggering amount of precision.

If that happens, the exhaust gas recirculation valve will malfunction, potentially resulting in a sudden loss of power, which could leave drivers stuck on the road and in danger.
