Air Brake Abs Warning Light problem #1

Abs system lights going off after recall recall #205 being completed. My vehicle has only 27,000 miles on it and is in excellent condition. I took it in for the recall and have spent thousands of dollars at the dealership for regular maintenance over the past year. Two days after the recall being done, my abs system lights went off. Rick case Hyundai wants to charge another $l,200 for abs sensor replacement. This is incredible since nothing was wrong until I took it in, as advised, for the recall on the abs system. Now they say I need to keep the car outside in case of a fire and that the sensors aren't covered. This is an outrange and I get no assistance since contacting Hyundai customer care and the case manager of my case #l8756193 is an absolute joke and of no help whatsoever. The sensors should be replaced at no cost to me as it was a direct result of the recall visit.

Air Brake Abs Warning Light problem #2

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe sport. The contact stated that while driving at 70 mph, the abs, emergency brake, and other brake warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. Despite the illumination of the warning lights, the vehicle resumed normal operation. The contact had taken the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that he had to pay out of pocket for the replacement of an unknown vehicle sensor, which the dealer related to the illumination of the warning lights. Recently, the contact stated that an abnormal, high pitched, motor sound would emit from the vehicle upon both turning the vehicle on and off. The contact then stated that upon turning off the vehicle, he heard an explosion as a white colored smoke began to emit from the engine. Upon opening the hood, the contact discovered the abs pump had exploded. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle remained in the contact's possession and had yet to be serviced or diagnosed. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.
