Brake Fluid Leak Problems of Hyundai Genesis

When the brake pedal was depressed today 08/23/19, it traveled to the floorboard, barely escaping rear ends of several vehicles on the highway and city streets. There was no warning indicator illuminated. There is no evidence of a brake fluid leak. There is the appropriate amount of brake fluid in the reservoir. Having entered my VIN # into this site has provided no recalls. Although reading everything about no. 114, that I have sounds like it should be and it should be corrected. Some people, who have also had this problem, said that the brake fluid used was causing failure in the master brake cylinder valves. This is obviously a manufacturer error, and Hyundai should be held responsible. I have unfortunately had to leave my car due to this safety hazard over hour and a half from home. This needs to be addressed/fixed quickly.

Brake pedal began is requiring more and more travel to achieve braking effectiveness. There is no evidence of a brake fluid leak. There is no reduction of brake fluid in the reservoir. The ability to modulate braking is impaired at times and one must pump the brake pedal to build pressure to stop.

Tl- the contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Genesis. The contact stated the vehicle experienced failures with the backup camera , his rear drivers and passengers side windows as well as the cruise control . The contact also stated that the brakelines were leaking fluid as the brake pedal was depressed it traveled tothe floor. The vehicle was taken to a dealer (Hyundai of la quinta 79025 CA-111, la quinta, CA 92253) for a diagnosis however the failures could not be duplicated. The contact that an unknown repair was done to the brakeline however the failure mileage continued. The approximate failure mileage was 68,000 tp.

While in route to the dealer for one issue, my Smart cruise light came on. I reported this to the dealer upon arrival and they ignored. They repaired one item under warranty in which I though took care of both. By time I left, allowed the car to warm up; the Smart cruise light came back on. I contacted the dealership & asked them what happened to this 2nd issue. They scheduled an appointment and I was informed by that time and visit; the warranty had expired and I will have to pay $4200 to repair the problem that they now see. I had also been complaining about my abs/esc/auto hold lights were constantly flashing, now they remain solid. It causes the vehicle to jerk when in reverse. I have read about several recalls regarding issue. The situation has gotten worse and I was told it is now leaking brake fluid. The dealership has now given me a price totaling $7000 to repair or purchase a new vehicle. This is money I cannot pay and I know my vehicle was still covered when the problems/ recalls started. These incidents occurred on several dates.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Genesis. The contact stated that when he starts the vehicle a emergency brake light flashes alerting him to contact the dealer. The vehicle was taken to the dealer dick smith Hyundai 825 congaree rd, greenville, SC 29607 where it was diagnosed with the issue being a brake fluid leakage that causes corrosion and braking failure but not repairs had been completed. The manufacturer was notified of failure. The failure mileage 49,000. Tf.

Brake pedal began to require more and more travel to achieve braking effectiveness. There was no evidence of a brake fluid leak. There was no reduction of brake fluid in the reservoir. The ability to modulate braking for conditions such as slow speed (parking lot) driving is significantly impaired. The issue also has required a very heavy pressure on the brake pedal to allow the engine to start (push button ignition switch). I have learned that Hyundai has identified an issue with brake fluid that failed to protect the hydraulic electronic control unit (hecu). Resulting corrosion within the brake system leads to the failure mode I am experiencing. This issue has happened on a car driven by an 86 year old woman. The situation came on over time, but became very noticeable within the last 6 - 8 months. The car only has 21. 4k miles on it.

Was traveling on a road at the posted 45 mph when I came to s stop sign. When I tried to slow down prior to reaching the sign, that car did not slow down at all and the brakes were soft and went down all the way to the floor. Needles to say, I was not able to stop at the stop sign but by virtue of pumping the breaks I stopped on the other side of the street. Had this transpired during a busy time, I would have t boned a cat that had a right of way and at 45 mph am sure there could have been lives lost if the other car had passengers. Research shows that this is a common problem with Hyundai that is being disregarded. The car has 62,900 miles and the dealer simply says, sorry, you are one month and 3000 miles over the warranty. The problem according to the dealer is a fluid leaking in the abs control unit and they want about $2500 to replace it. Curiously, the estimate invoice also showed that they had flushed the brake lines and replace it with a new dot 4 brake fluid and, this was done under a warranty which has expired. Could the original fluid have created some of the problems? either way, the breaks fail without any warning whatsoever and I certainly hope that someone looks into this before a disastrous accident with casualties takes place.

I seriously hope people don't have to die before this car is recalled for brake failure problems. I am having an issue with my 2009 Genesis where all of the sudden the brake pedal becomes very soft and goes all the way to the floor. I initially thought this was a one-time fluke. Well now the brake pedal has occasionally goes all the way to the floor without any pressure being applied to brake system. The best way I can describe the problem is the brakes are good and then they are bad on the next application. No warning lights, no gradual deterioration, just instant no brakes. Pumping seems to improve the brakes slightly but they rapidly faded when held. No brake fluid leak is observed and brake fluid level is full. From what I am reading this is not a sporadic problem if you look at how many of us this is happening to!!! I pray this Hyundai problem does not end up in a serious accident and someone being killed. This car is completely unpredictable and unreliable. The brakes work fine until they decide not to work. This is some scary stuff.
