Tl-the contact owns a 2006 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 mph, in the night time, the head lights had not illuminate. The contact stated that the check engine and air bag indicators had illuminated. The failure occurred on several occasions. The contact drove the vehicle to the dealer for diagnostic testing.

Brakes failed due to corroded steel hard lines for rear brakes. The hard lines failed approximately under the driver seat in a protected plastic channel that contains the brake hard lines, and fuel lines. On further inspection brake lines are heavily corroded, and fuel lines also have extensive corrosion. The point of failure happened while attempting to stop quickly in a high traffic situation while applying high brake pressure. The brake lines are in a partially enclosed channel - so are not visible for inspection, and the issue was missed even after taking the car for an evaluation at sears after this issue occurred. Symptoms of this incident included: sinking brake pedal, brake warning light, low fluid in brake reservoir, and loss of control of the vehicle. Brake lines can fail - however this was surprising as the car has very low miles - and was only driven for approx 65,000 miles in the midwest where salt was used occasionally (central illinois). It should be expected that the brake lines would last at least for the 10yr or 120,000 mile manufacture lifetime of the car.

Have had an ongoing issue with brake lights going out. . . Stop lamp switch has been replaced 4 times in the last 5 years. Now I don't have brake lights . . . . Something is very very wrong with Hyundai's electrical system of course Hyundai says my car is not affected by any recall. . . And I have to pay them to find out what is wrongs with the car.

Brake lights do not illuminate. Recall id #09v122000 dealer offered no help,said it was out of warranty ,I would have to absorb cost.

My electronic stability control (esc) and abs lights come on while braking even after recall was corrected for the stop lamp switch. Brake lights do not illuminate consistently either.

My car started having problems in may that when I look them up, are listed as issues that have been recalled by Hyundai yet when I contacted Hyundai these were not open recalls on my vehicle. My abs/esc light comes on and off. If I turn my car off and re-start it then the light will be gone, only to come on again at some point when I'm driving. I just got new brakes in January and my brakes seem to be working fine. The only time I was concerned was during a road trip when the light was off, but came on when I slammed on my brakes on the highway. My air bag light came on around the same time the brake light started consistently coming on. This light does not go away. I have also been told that I have a back break light that is out yet when I took it to get a new bulb it was working just fine. Then the next day when backing up, I could see my car's reflection in a window and that light was out, indicating some sort of electrical short. To top it all off, my check engine light came on today and I will be taking my car in this afternoon to see what that is. My car is up to date on all maintenance. In the last 7 months I have had new brakes, new spark plugs, and a new battery. I'm not sure why these lights are on but it is very frustrating to see recalls for some of these issues, and they just aren't on my car specifically.

The contact owns a 2006 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that after recieving notification of NHTSA campaign id number: 09v122000 (service brakes, hydraulic:switches:brake light) the vehicle was taken to the dealer for repairs. One year later, the brake lights became inoperable. The manufacturer was then contacted and they offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 96,900.

July 14, 2010: while stopped at a stoplight, I was alerted by another motorist that none of my brake lights were working. After googling the problem, I found that a recall had been issued April 14, 2009, no. 09v122000, regarding the malfunctioning of the stop lamp switch. Having received no notification of the recall, I contacted my dealership and informed them of the problem. The dealership informed me that they had performed the recall repair on July 31, 2009, while my car was in for service. I immediately took my car to the dealership for them to look at the problem. The result was that the "stop lamp switch has circuit open. " they replaced the stop lamp switch for the second time in less than one year. This is a serious safety concern, and it seems that the previous recall "fix" is not fixing the issue. Hyundai needs to find out what is causing the malfunction and remedy that, not just replace one defective stop lamp switch with another.
