Hyundai recalls over 390K vehicles for possible engine fires

DETROIT (AP)

Hyundai is recalling

more than 390,000 vehicles in the U.S. and Canada for two problems that can cause engine fires.

In one recall, owners are being told to park their vehicles outdoors until repairs are made.

The largest recall

covers more than 203,000 Santa Fe Sport SUVs from 2013 through 2015.

Some are being recalled a second time.

Brake fluid can leak into the anti-lock brake computer, causing an electrical short that can lead to fires.

Owners should park outdoors
and away from structures until the problem is fixed, according to documents posted Tuesday by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Dealers will replace a fuse
and replace the computer if necessary. Owners will be notified in June.
