The brake pedal of my car is soft and deep, and the braking is not done properly. After about a month and a half, the symptoms appeared and I changed the brake pads. Every day driving is a continuation of tension. I went to the designated service center and inspected it. During the re-run, the same phenomenon continued, and after a week again, I had to change the abs module. How much of an abs module does it have grounded like a brake pad? I can't understand it. I looked at the internet and the model I was riding was subject to recall.

On multiple occasions the brake pedal will go nearly to the floor without stopping the car causing a panic and aggressive braking before nearly getting into an accident. We have to pump the pedal to make them work. This happened at any speed at random times. The brake pads have been inspected and still have plenty of pad left. Car has 125k mostly highway miles. Multiple mechanic advice and on line issues points to a faulty $1600 abs module. I have two other much older vehicles with way more miles with no such issue.

Just recently my brakes have become extremely soft and the vehicle is slow to respond to braking. I have had the brakes pads replaced and still and extremely soft pedal with little to no braking reaction until I am almost to the floorboard. Like others have said there was a recall but my vehicle was not included. This happens every time and is not sporadic as some have stated.

Since purchasing the car, used, in 2014, we have had numerous, random instances where the brake pedal went all the way to the floor. It's happened in all types of weather and temperatures. We presently have around 76k miles. I've had the car in for checkups to our mechanic twice, with no findings. The problem happened again this morning, while my wife, who is 9mo pregnant was driving to work. Until today I did not research the issue online. I found today that our car was among the batch that did eventually get the fluid swap done(recall). Ours was done when we bought it. They did not inform us that the problem was actually the hecu unit. Today, I called our local Hyundai dealer, who told me they would be glad to replace it, but that we would be paying for it all. I have loved the car, but I'm fairly disgusted that Hyundai has so many documented cases of this part failing, yet will not replace it. The brake pedal, at any speed, randomly loses pressure, and goes all the way to the floor. Once there, they feel like the brake pads fell out. The vehicle stops, but very abruptly. Its terrifying. The last time it happened was roughly may 2018. Does not seem to matter if we are pulling out of the garage, riding through the neighborhood, or driving on the highway. Happens in all variety of situations. Tonight, we left the car at my in-laws because my wife is afraid to drive her own car.

Brakes are spongy. 63000 miles. Brake pads are at 70% on the back and 50% on the front. Brake fluid level is ok. When using the brake pedal it seems to come to a stop and then I am able to push down more. Pushing down more is what is required to stop thevehicle.

Vehicles brake pedal became very soft and needed to press down all the way down on the pedal for the vehicle to stop. Was driving on the highway when this occurred. Drove straight to the Hyundai dealer and told the service tech of my issue. Received a call from the advisor where he explained the abs system on the vehicle had failed and needed to be replaced. Cost is $2,300 plus $260 for the front pads. I quickly did a research on my vehicle and saw this is a recall problem with my car but the advisor said that was just a rumor online and it was not true. Called Hyundai and they said the recall was performed at the dealer in January 2014 but I don't have a service record stating this. Calledthe dealer back to gain a copy of the recall work order and it just states "recall item section performed" without any details. Dealer refuses to correct issue and stated my only options are to pay 3k in repairs or drive off the vehicle with care. Also my car just lapsed the 60k mile warranty about 3 months ago.

Rear passenger side brake seizure or sticking. Happened when I went to a colder location. I took the car to the dealer and they lubed the guides, 2 months later, back in a cold area, the exact same thing happened again. The car doesn't roll in neutral and the brakes heat up, excessive wear on the pads on that brake.

As I was driving down a major street traveling around 35 mph, the car in front of me began to stop. As I began to apply the brakes, my car's pedal went to the floor. I pumped the brakes a few times and began to get some pressure, but I was not able to stop in time before rear ending the car in front of me. I never knew what the issue was and I couldn't get the problem to duplicate, but the brake pedal was soft since that day. I have changed the pads, and rotors, so those are not the issue. This week, my fuel pump went out and I took the car to the mechanic for that issue. My mechanic informed me that the car needed an abs pump. The dealers are well aware of the issue because when we checked the price of the part ($2600), the parts agent immediately knew the problem. There are numerous complaints online about the exact same issue. This is truly a safety issue for these cars. There are many complaints online with the same problem!!!!!!!.

Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Hyundai Genesis coupe. The contact reviewed a service campaign consent letter from the manufacturer which indicated that the the hecu was to be serviced and replaced for all Genesis vehicles but when the contact called the manufacturer they specified that the Genesis coupe was not included in that manufacturer campaign. Contact stated that there was a random progressing failure in which the brake pedal was applied and it was slow to respond. The vehicle was taken to a repair shop who drained the brakes, replaced the brake pads and serviced the brake system. The dealer was notified of the brake system failure and indicated that the independent repair shop had not completed the repair correctly. The contact notified the repair shop and they stated the repair was completed correctly. The manufacturer refused to service the hecu system pertaining to the service campaign so the contact was unable to determine a permanent remedy for the condition. The vehicle was parked due to the failure. The contact was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 13v113000 (exterior lighting , service brakes, hydraulic) and 13v489000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 66,500. Dyd.

Brakes went to the floor, upon trying to stop for a traffic light. . . . . Pumped brakes over and over, still no resistance in the brake pedal. Began to prepare to downshift the a/t and start evasive maneuvers so I didn't jeopardize other near by drivers (and myself). As I prepared myself for an accident, the brake pedal become "spongy" and after pumping it a couple more times. . . . It finally began to work. I was beside myself! as a retired MD state trooper, I knew how to stop the vehicle; however I couldn't believe the car I loved was failing me! at the next intersection, I pulled over, allowed the car to cool down and check fluid levels (everything was within normal limits) and there were no visible leaks under the vehicle or on the ground. On 10-18-2013. . . . My vehicle was taken to Hyundai and Hyundai replaced my brake fluid, even though it wasn't necessary I had the front brake pads replaced, and the 60k mile service completed. At this time, there was no recall on this Hyundai brake issue. It is now June 2014 (mileage is now 74k) and my brake pedal is becoming spongy again and my stopping distance is becoming longer. . . . . . . . I'm afraid my brakes are going to fail me again!!! I hope that doesn't happen with the children on board! I have maintained this vehicle meticulously and serviced it at every Hyundai required interval. This vehicle has never been involved in an accident and has been garage kept. I'm very disappointed that this brake issue has seriously depreciated the value of my 2009 Hyundai Genesis!.

Had to apply brakes suddenly, car stopped as normal/expected. After this instance, the brake pedal has been exceptionally soft, often traveling all the way to the floor prior to any stopping power. The fluid level is normal, brake pads are good.
