1 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 03/18/2015

While following a line of cars through a local city street my car accelerated coming close to the car in front. I braked, the car did not respond. I used all my strength on the brake pedal and the car responded by going faster. To avoid a collision, I swerved to the right into a convenience store driveway. However, I hit the bumper of the car in front of me and this finally stopped my car. I read on a website that this is not an uncommon problem with this model. Why has there been no recall to solve this problem?.

The break warning light comes when no problem with lights or breaks when you hardly touch the breaks. It bothers or concerns the driver. When there is no problem why should warning light come on? did you have similar problem like this with any other vehicles of this model.

4 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 10/01/2014

On few occasions I experienced faulty activation of abs brakes driving at a low speed. Last time it was at a speed lower than 10 mph when I was not even pushing break pedal. Abs activated for few seconds while driving. Researching on internet it appears that my problem is not unique. Should there be a recall or at least free repair of abs system on affected vehicles?.

5 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2014

I was braking my car at the end of my work's driveway which enters into a "t" intersection. Upon reaching a slow speed of 5 mph the car surged into the traffic which was traveling from my left and right. Braking fully had no effect on the surge and thankfully I was not hit by any left or right traveling vehicles and I just missed a vehicle crossing in front of me by an inch as it passed. Still braking fully, my car crossed the entire road and jumped a curb, slightly hit a rising grassy hill and finally came to rest fully on the hill only after I punched the shift into neutral. I should have been killed and I could have seriously hurt the individual crossing in front of me. This has been the fourth incident of this nature. The first three involved soft taps to the rear bumper of cars stopped in front of me while I was breaking and the engine was surging. So very unsafe!! I checked on carcomplaints. Com and saw 30 plus complaints of the same nature. I was told the older cars had a engine idler control to keep the engine from stalling after breaking from higher rpm's to near 0 rpm's. Is this now controlled with an electronic module? I think this problem should cause a recall for this problem. I don't want to drive this vehicle anymore. Every time I brake I don't know if I am going to injure someone!!.

6 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 02/07/2013

The airbag light has stayed on for over 2 years. When a touch the brake pedal, a bulb illuminates. Therefore I am constantly having all of my lights, brake fluid, and brakes checked. Especially since before any of the above issues arose, I attempted to put on brakes and the car would not stop! I had to come to a rolling stop. I immediately had the car checked by severall mechanics. None of them could find anything wrong.

7 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 08/09/2010

My wife was on her way to work and coming up to a stop sign, but she had no brakes,,,she went straight threw 108 highway lucky no cars . ,,, so I looked into it and I see there is a bad design made ,,,the pad should over lap the edge of rotor or be even with the rotor,,,,it leaves a 1/8 inch lip on rotor outer edge and so the metal on the pad grabs top and bottom and no pad touches metal,,,,,,this car is a 2005 Hyundai Xg350 4 door I left the rotors front left and right not turned or shaved just so you can see it for your self I worked in a auto shop for two years never seen this type of wear ,,,,,.
