The short version

Hyundai Motor America reported a problem with the electrical system instrument cluster/panel. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The affected vehicles are equipped with an Antilock Braking System (ABS) warning light intended to warn the driver if there is an ABS malfunction. In the event of an ABS malfunction, the Brake System warning light will illuminate, but the ABS warning light will not illuminate.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the driver is alerted there is a brake system malfunction, but not specifically with the ABS system, the driver may operate the vehicle unaware that the vehicle's brakes may lock up during hard braking, increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will update the ABS control unit software, free of charge.
