I started to hear a grinding sound when breaking and I took it into a meineke dealer to see about getting it fixed. During a general diagnostic they discovered that 3 of the four brakes were not working and the calipers needed replaced.

They informed me that they have seen this similar issue on many 2019 Hyundai Velosters and there would be a recall soon but I have no eta and I cannot drive my vehicle.

8 Service Brakes problem of the 2014 Hyundai Veloster

Failure Date: 06/18/2024

I purchased the 2014 Veloster turbo on December 21st 2013 at beaverton Hyundai in beaverton ore I was a new car priced at $23,373. 00. When driving the car it would die often when taking off after a stop. After some time I took it to the dealer and they told me I needed to give it more gas and baby the clutch. I have had it die in intersections and had a many near misses as I soon realized I never would know if it was going to die untill it did. This problem was never fixed. The instrument panel gave many false readings, I would like you to get the problems from the dealer, they said the replaced the computer at one point. I was notified in sept 2023 of the recall #251 for the abs brakes to this date there is no remedy. After 5 months of not being able to drive my car safely or park it in the garage, I ask for a rental car and a dealership who could keep my car safe untill the remedy was available. Whitnel Hyundai in salem or was the place to go. In March they said I could park in the lot and they gave me a loaner, rental paid for by Hyundai. I spoke to them in may and they still had no remedy. I ask them to let me know when the remedy was available and not to do anything to my car without my ok. I was told that I would by notified by mail when it was available. Today is June 18th 2024, I just checked the recall info on NHTSA site and it says, there is a remedy for some Hyundai cars but the Veloster and genesis will come later. And we will be notified. I am currently undergoing cancer treatment and am very busy with treatments. I am considering returning the car of theirs and picking up my car as I read on the NHTSA recall site that the remedy for most of the Hyundai cars is to put a fuse in to prevent a fire. As you know the abs system is in or under the engine the solution is a new engine not a fuse. My Veloster was built in korea and shipped here, and some parts form 2012 or 2013 could have been used in it.

10 Service Brakes problem of the 2015 Hyundai Veloster

Failure Date: 05/01/2024

This has happened on 4 different occasions. I'm on the highway and my speedometer slams to zero and everything involving the brakes lights up in my dash. The car continues to drive but it's pretty worrisome as I drive 70mph around alot of traffic. I have been able to pull over every time but it's still beyond unacceptable. I've had my Veloster a little under a year and I don't know if the other recall involving the motor being replaced was taken care of. It was a recall associated with my VIN. I have a video of it happening but for some reason I try to upload it on the app and it won't allow me to. It is the proper format.
