DETROIT—Hyundai is telling the owners of nearly 1,600 Nexo hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in the U.S. and Canada to park them outdoors and away from structures due to the risk of fuel leaks and possible fires.
The Korean automaker is recalling the hydrogen-powered SUVs from the 2019 through 2024 model years.

The company says the SUVs can still be driven but should be parked outside until repairs are made….
