What is this? Hyundai Kona cars made in South Korea may have a problem with the battery software. The software can’t always spot when the car’s high-voltage battery is getting too hot.
What's happening? Because of this, the battery might catch fire. Hyundai has fixed the software in newer cars, but older ones still need the update.
Does this affect me? If you own or drive a Hyundai Kona in Germany, Bulgaria, Estonia, France, Croatia, Hungary, Ireland, Poland, Portugal, Sweden, or Slovenia, your car could be at risk.
What should I do? Take your car to a Hyundai dealer right away to get the battery software checked and updated. Ask your dealer or a mechanic if you’re unsure.
