Hyundai Genesis

Hyundai’s latest recall is out for a fire risk that affects nearly 91,000 sedans on account of water damage to the starter solenoid that could cause an electrical short.

The fix involves a reinforcement that protects the ignition cylinder — the thing the key slides into in the steering column — and prevents its removal, which is necessary for the means of theft being promoted on social media.

To combat a wave of vehicle theft, Hyundai and Kia have developed a software fix and will even be sponsoring mobile clinics to install the software in five U.S. cities.

The software upgrade attempts to make older Hyundai vehicles more resilient to theft by modifying their vehicle control modules to not only activate the factory alarm when locking the doors, but also a special “ignition kill” feature that prevents thieves from starting the vehicle.
