Table 1 shows two common service brakes related problems of the 2010 Hyundai Azera.
| Problem Category | Number of Problems |
|---|---|
| Brake Sensor problems | |
| Brake Abs Warning Light problems |
Car shifted erratically and shut down multiple times while at speeds up to 45 mph with loss of power assist for brakes and steering, the last time while rounding a curve and braking for a stop sign. When restarted, the indicator for the shift position was completely blank (reappeared on a second shutdown/restart. Dealer finally located a trouble code (no check engine light) which indicated a failing transmission oil temperature/shift position sensor located on the automatic transmission. Dealer refused to submit to Hyundai in spite of the fact car was still under drive train warranty and safety considerations of such a failure. This obviously covers up such failures from NHTSA oversight. Problem has not reoccurred since sensor was replaced. Repair invoice from the dealer is available upon request.
While returning from town and driving in my driveway, herd strange noise from under the hood and the abs warning light came on. After parking in garage noticed that a brake fluid trail was left behind in the driveway. Checked the brake fluid reservoir and it was almost empty, so added new brake fluid to the proper level and removed the fuse for the the the abs unit so it could not short out again and lose break fluid while driving. If it had happen on the highway could be dead I know the car had a recall for abs unit shorting out and fires while parked, and a relay kit was added to kill power to the abs while parked but what about a short in the abs unit while driving, seams much more dangerous. Dealer says not covered by recall, how can this be? please help.
