The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has launched an investigation into the recall of 6.4 million Hyundai and Kia vehicles due to brake fluid leaks that could lead to fires.
The probe will cover eight recalls by each company related to antilock braking systems and Hydraulic Electronic Control Units.
The recalls were issued due to the risk of fire caused by internal brake fluid leaks leading to electrical shorts.
The NHTSA will audit the automakers’ defect decision-making and adherence to reporting requirements.
Affected vehicles will have their ABS and HECU fuses replaced by dealers.
