DETROIT (AP) Hyundai and Kia are recalling nearly 3.4 million vehicles in the U.S. and telling owners to park them outside due to the risk of engine compartment fires.

The recalls cover multiple car and SUV models from the 2010 through 2019 model years including Hyundais Santa Fe SUV and Kias Sorrento SUV.

Documents posted Wednesday by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration say the anti-lock brake control module can leak fluid and cause an electrical short, which can touch off a fire while the vehicles are parked or being driven.

I need to check and see if my mom's Hyundai is affected by this. I don't think it is, but gonna check to make sure.

Kia and Hyundai: Don't park outside because your car could be stolen easily.
Kia and Hyundai: Don't park inside because your car could light on fire.

I wish they'd make up their minds.

The recall is to figure out a way to catch the thieves in between.

My mom's car is not affected by this, but there's something related to the trunk latch assembly that she knows about.

I've heard of time limits on these things. May want to advise her to get it checked out.
