Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2014 Hyundai Sonata

There is recall 189 on my car (2014 2. 0 turbo) for a possible leaking fuel line due to heat causing cracks in the fuel line. A "fix" was performed in July 2020 by the dealership which seems to be wrapping the fuel line from what I have learned. I started smelling fuel intermittently n the following months,, but wasn't driving my car much so let it slide. Also my fuel mileage and performance was off. I recently started driving my car more and noticed the smell was unbearable at times. After driving the car I pulled the engine cover off and found fuel dripping onto the valve cover and after a few minutes the plastic quick disconnect fuel line that is part of the recall was loose (I could push it in and out on the fuel pump connector) since it had lost pressure from the fuel leaking. It was leaking between the quick disconnect to the rubber isolator on the line (see pics) and was not clear where the leak was, though fuel was covering the valve cover to the front of the car on the valve cover so seemed like the connector/o ring was not the likely cause. The next morning I started the car and there was not a leak when it was cold (and the fuel line was pressurized), but after driving it for a few minutes I checked and it was dripping fuel again. I contacted the dealer that performed the recall and they said to bring it in immediately. They looked at it and said the line was bad, but since the "recall fix" had been performed Hyundai corporate would not cover the fuel line replacement. Luckily the dealer said they would and they are currently replacing it. The "recall fix" that was performed was obviously inadequate and could have led to a fire. Why wasnt the fuel line just replaced under the recall originally????.

The gdi high pressure fuel pump has a big problem. The car will read empty with a full tank in the car. The spring loaded fuel pressure pump will seize or either temporarily stop working. My car has 62,500 miles and always has been serviced. I have talked about this part with many dealerships and it's the number one part on the car that sells because how faulty the part is and goes out quickly. I can be on the freeway with half tank reading and the car will shut off on me while driving on the freeway, which is very dangerous considering everyone is traveling at a fast speed and my car loses all power with nothing I can do. I have had a couple close calls on the freeway with near fatal accidents. Used auto parts even say it's the number one issue on the car. And it's happening to all Hyundai�s. It's poor made and needs to be resolved immediately.
