Hyundai and Kia are adding 500,000 more vehicles to an ongoing recall due to an increase in engine failures and fires.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the largest individual recall affects 380,000 Kia Souls from model years 2012-2016 with 1.6-liter engines. High exhaust gas temperatures can cause harm to the catalytic converter which can then lead to an “abnormal engine combustion.”
