Hyundai is recalling 43,500 2009-2012 model-year Genesis luxury sedans to fix a potential brake problem, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported.
The vehicles may have brake fluid that fails to protect against corrosion of the hydraulic electronic control unit (HECU), NHTSA said. If this module corrodes, the brakes might become less effective.

The recall covers Genesis vehicles manufactured April 30, 2008, through March 28, 2012. Hyundai dealers will inspect the HECU module and replace it if necessary. Dealers will also replace the factory brake fluid in those vehicles if the fluid hasn’t previously been replaced. There will be no charge for these services.
This recall is expected to get under way in December. Hyundai can be reached at 1-800-633-5151 or by email at consumeraffairs@hmausa.com. The recall number is 114.
Distracted driving remains one of the most persistent risks in fleet operations. New approaches focus on removing mobile device use entirely while adding real-time safety support.
As distraction risks evolve, fleets are turning to smarter, more connected technologies to better understand what’s happening behind the wheel. Part 2 explores how these tools are helping identify risky behaviors and improve visibility across operations.
Distracted driving is often measured by what we can see—phones in hand, eyes off the road. But what about the distractions we can’t? A recent incident raises a bigger question about awareness, attention, and why subtle risks so often go unnoticed.
Fleets have more driver data than ever, so why isn't behavior changing? Training requires more than reports and coaching — it requires real-world practice.
A two-part conversation with Stefan Heck on how AI is transforming the fight against distracted driving. As fleets adopt smarter tools, the focus shifts from reacting to preventing risk. In Part 1, we look at where AI is making an impact for fleets today.
An 11% drop in pedestrian fatalities in early 2025 signals progress in U.S. road safety, but elevated death rates and ongoing risks underscore the need for continued action from fleets and policymakers.
