I bought a 2019 Hyundai Nexo Fuel Cell on 04/29/2020 from Lithia Hyundai of Mission Hills without been notified of the two existent recalls with no remedy yet available from Hyundai. In fact, these Recalls shown in the Carfax report, were undisclosed by giving me to sign the last page "as a confirmation I was going to receive it complete". At the end of the process, I received a USB with the purchase documents and it was until two days after when I printed all documents, I found out about the recalls. Is it fraud?

Indicated that there is delay of acceleration on the high driving when I push the gas pedal, it doesn't linearly speed up instead it reduced the speed while I was pushing the gas pedal, worried about the behind car didn't notice the car is slowing due to this issue, it may incur the unexpected accident due to unexpected speed down on the highway driving. Put my car in the dealer to take a look at the issue, they indicated the issue and performed several software upgrade but they failed several times and it still didn't get fixed yet. I also heard that it has orange warning message which need to replace hydrogen related coolant must be replaced but they don't have parts to replace it immediately. There is no actual incident so far, but worrying about this unexpected delay of acceleration, and unexpected speed down could cause the accident. But they cannot figure it so far, been 4months.

WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING, A "REGENERATIVE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" MAY OCCUR. WHEN THIS ERROR OCCURS, BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS IS DRAMATICALLY REDUCED AND THE CAR'S SPEED IS LIMITED TO 13 MPH. ADDITIONALLY, THE CAR WILL NOT CREEP FORWARD OR HOLD POSITION WHEN THE BRAKE IS RELEASED, POTENTIALLY ALLOWING THE CAR TO ROLL BACKWARD WHEN THE BRAKE IS NOT APPLIED. THE FAILURE OCCURS MOST COMMONLY WHEN THE CAR IS CREEPING FORWARD IN TRAFFIC, BUT CAN ALSO OCCUR AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. TURNING OFF THE CAR, RESTARTING IT, AND PULLING FORWARD - IN THAT ORDER - WILL CLEAR THE BRAKE FAILURE WARNING LIGHTS AND RETURN THE CAR TO NORMAL OPERATION UNTIL THE NEXT FAILURE. TIME BETWEEN FAILURES CAN BE AS LITTLE AS A FEW MINUTES AND AS GREAT AS A FEW DAYS. THE FAILURE SETS DTCS IN THE VEHICLE ECM BUT THESE CODES HAVE NOT BEEN SUFFICIENT FOR TECHNICIANS TO IDENTIFY THE FAULTY COMPONENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO CUSTOMER WITHOUT THE TECHNICIANS OBSERVING THE FAILURE OR PERFORMING ANY FIX. THE CAR THEN FAILED AGAIN A FEW DAYS LATER AND HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER ASSESSMENT.

Manufacturer communications
A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.
AIR BAGS
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued an urgent safety advisory regarding dangerous, counterfeit driver‑side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN), that have been identified in U.S. vehicles following prior crashes, theft, or non‑certified airbag replacements. These inflators are not approved for use, may rupture during deployment, and have caused serious injuries and fatalities. Please see attached announcement, provided by NHTSA, for more details.
AIR BAGS
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has identified the presence of substandard and dangerous driver’s-side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN). These inflators were not supplied, approved, or authorized by the vehicle manufacturers and have primarily been found in vehicles that previously experienced a crash and underwent airbag replacement using non-genuine parts. These dangerous inflators have ruptured during deployment, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to metal fragments entering the vehicle cabin. To date, Hyundai is aware of three people who have died while driving a Hyundai vehicle with one of these substandard replacement airbag inflators that deployed in what likely would have been a survivable crash. NHTSA has issued a public advisory urging vehicle owners and service professionals to have vehicles inspected if there is reason to believe that a non-genuine replacement airbag may have been installed. Vehicles with salvage or rebuilt titles, prior airbag deployments, or unknown repair histories may present a higher risk. NHTSA strongly cautions against self-inspection by vehicle owners and recommends inspection by trained technicians.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
This bulletin provides information regarding condensation related to the accumulated moisture in the headlamp, rear combination lamp, daytime running lamp (DRL), or fog lamp. This TSB illustrates the various causes of condensation inside the lamp assembly. Lamp assembly replacement is NOT necessary in most cases. This condition can be eliminated by turning on the lamps with the engine running for several minutes or during normal driving operation.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Some vehicles may exhibit a loss of connectivity or interruptions in the middle of using Bluelink Service functions. This may be due to an irregular disconnection on Verizon’s communication network. Follow the procedure in this TSB to reestablish the connection via the AVN pinhole reset method.

They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
