What's wrong?
The EGR valve assembly on the 2024 Hyundai Elantra, Kona, and Venue is part of the engine emissions system. It routes a controlled amount of exhaust gas back into the engine so combustion temperatures stay in the intended range and emissions controls work as designed. A sensor in the assembly reports valve position to the engine computer.
On affected vehicles, the sensor leads inside the EGR valve assembly were contaminated with solder flux during manufacturing. Over time, that residue carbonizes, which means it turns into a more conductive carbon deposit. That deposit can create an electrical short between the sensor terminals. When the signal fails, the engine computer can react by reducing or cutting drive power.
The warning sign is illumination of the MIL, also called the malfunction indicator lamp or check engine light. If that light comes on, the EGR valve assembly has reported a fault that needs dealer diagnosis.
Who's affected?
Three Hyundai nameplates are included, all tied to the same EGR valve component category.
| 2024 Hyundai Elantra | Gas recirculation valve (egr valve) |
|---|---|
| 2024 Hyundai Kona | Gas recirculation valve (egr valve) |
| 2024 Hyundai Venue | Gas recirculation valve (egr valve) |
| Units affected | 13,511 |
A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific vehicle.
What's the safety risk?
A loss of drive power increases crash risk, especially when you need steady acceleration in traffic. The malfunction indicator light is the warning sign Hyundai lists, so treat an illuminated MIL as a reason to schedule service promptly. Repair is free at any franchised Hyundai dealer.
