Abs Brake Fail problems of the 2008 Hyundai Veracruz

The contact owns a 2008 Hyundai Veracruz. While driving 55 mph, the vehicle jerked independently and stalled. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the abs module failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that they could not assist. The approximate failure mileage was 86,400.

"abs failure" and "alternator recall 121" the break, abs, esc and chk engine lights all came on and stay on. From time to time the tpms light will also come on and speedometer will be at zero when driving along the highway. The car will from time to time completely shut down, even while driving along highway, which is a very dangerous situation. Upon further research and diagnostics by Hyundai it seems 2 items are the root cause of the problems, 1) faulty abs module that was been reported by 100¿s of people and 2) faulty alternator that affects the loss in power, again with 100¿s of complaints. There is a recall for alternator but not the abs module. This is a very expensive repair and with only 70000 miles, this should be replaced/fixed under Hyundai USA warranty.

While driving my 2008 Veracruz, the abs, esc, and 4wd lights went on, a few minutes later the speedometer registerd zero, then worked intermittently. According to my mechanic the source of the problem was the abs module. The original abs module became inoperable in March 2015, after approximately 41,000 miles and was replaced once the part became available from Hyundai on 4/9/15. The part was purchased brand new from Hyundai by my mechanic and professionally installed, drove approximately 100 miles before the . According to my mechanic, the abs module which cost approximately $2,500 and controls the brakes, stability control, speedometer, traction control, etc is only guaranteed by Hyundai for 30 days. Two abs module failures within a month.
