What the hazard is
A sudden loss of motive power whilst driving increases the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
What to do
Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted in writing by Genesis Motor Australia (GMA), asking them to schedule an appointment to have the fuel pump inspected and replaced if required, free of charge.
Defect
Due to a manufacturing defect, the fuel control valve in the high-Pressure fuel pump could allow excess fuel to enter the pump. If this occurs, the engine could stall resulting in a sudden loss of motive power whilst driving.
