Hyundai begins worlds most expensive electric vehicle recall (US$900M)

Hyundai is recalling 82,000 EVs globally to replace the LG Chem battery packs inside because there\u2019s a potential fire risk. Oops a daisy. It\u2019s kind of a bad look for the world\u2019s fifth-largest carmaker - especially as the company pivots heavily towards EVs with brand Ioniq.
