Hyundai begins world’s most expensive electric vehicle recall (US$900M)

from AutoExpert · host John Cadogan

Hyundai is recalling 82,000 EVs globally to replace the LG Chem battery packs inside because there’s a potential fire risk. Oops a daisy. It’s kind of a bad look for the world’s fifth-largest carmaker - especially as the company pivots heavily towards EVs with brand Ioniq.
