A system for detecting hydrogen leaks within a vehicle includes a hydrogen sensor for generating data indicative of a level of hydrogen present within a compartment of the vehicle and a computing system. The computing system determines at least one of the level of hydrogen present within the compartment or a rate of change of the level of hydrogen present within the compartment and compares the determined at least one of the level of hydrogen present within the compartment or the rate of change of the level of hydrogen present within the compartment to a threshold value. When the determined at least one of the level of hydrogen present within the compartment or the rate of change of the level of hydrogen present within the compartment exceeds the threshold value, the computing system initiates a control action for reducing the level of hydrogen present within the compartment.
