Hyundai Nexo vehicles: Hydrogen gas storage system has potential concern

Country	New Zealand
Category	Automotive
Published	2025-04-04
Models affected	NEXO
Model year	2019-2023
Defect	This recall relates to a potential concern with the vehicle’s hydrogen gas storage system, in particular the Thermally Activated Pressure Relief Device ("TPRD"). The TPRD is designed to vent hydrogen gas through a glass bulb-type release mechanism that fractures when a specific tank temperature is exceeded. It’s been identified that overtime this glass bulb-type release mechanism could prematurely fracture due to microcracks in the glass, which could lead to inadvertent discharge of hydrogen gas during normal vehicle operation or while stationary.
Remedy	Hyundai New Zealand will directly contact customers with affected vehicles.
