Hyundai recall for rearview camera obstruction
Hyundai is recalling 18,206 of its 2024 Santa Fe vehicles. In the NHTSA report, the automaker said that the rearview camera image may be obstructed by a trailer parking assist message.

As a solution, Hyundai dealers will update the software for the rearview camera system. The update will be a free service for the affected drivers.

Drivers who have a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee can bring their vehicles to the dealer for an inspection. Mechanics will then replace the steering column control module for free.

For free, Chrysler dealers will update the TCS software on all of the affected vehicles. Notification letters are expected to be sent out on May 17. Owners may contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA's number for this recall is 22B.

Ford recall on Broncos, Escapes over fuel leak
Federal auto regulators have announced a probe into a Ford recall of nearly 42,652 automobiles following an error with cracked fuel injectors they say can cause gas leaks and ignite engine fires.
In a summary report release on Thursday, the NHTSA wrote it was opening an investigation into a recall of Ford Bronco and Escape vehicles.
According to the federalinvestigation announcement, owners can take their vehicle to a Ford or Lincoln dealer to have a drain tube installed in the vehicle at no cost.
The remedy also includes a free engine control software update to detect a pressure drop in the fuel injection system, the federal regulator reported. Should that occur, the software will disable the high pressure fuel pump, reduce engine power and cut temps in the engine compartment. Owners also will get a "seek service" message, documents show.
Ford's number for this recall is 24S16. This recall is an expansion of previous recall: 22V-859. For more information, owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.
