Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had the recall 172 performed at the Hyundai dealership on 07/03/2020, and 2 weeks later my ABS module failed anyway due to brake fluid leak inside the ABS module and had to be replaced. I contacted Hyundai for reimbursement and was denied. Out of pocket $500. Was also told repair would be $4000, but was then changed to $300.”
NHTSA complaint #11364295, filed 2020-10, 140,000 miles“2007 Hyundai Azera brake issues. At 11k miles rotors were machined. At 12500 miles, rotors were replaced. Pads never replaced. At 22k miles car shakes a great deal due to hot spots on rotors. Dealership machined again but does not replace pads. So the car has 23k miles on it with two sets of rotors and 3x machined rotors. But it is my driving habits even thought I have two other vehicles, only drive highway, and have no other issues with brakes on the other car. Rotors/brakes very poor on 07 Azera.”
NHTSA complaint #10259695, filed 2009-02, 10,500 miles“Brake pedal was harder to push down on. The service engine light indicator lit. Took it to the nearest Hyundai repair center but they refused to look into it as I did not have an appointment and was asked to make an appointment and come back. Took it to a nearby repair station (pepboys) who read the error as a faulty brake a/b switch but could not rectify it as they did not have parts. Took it to another repair center. They replaced the switch and advised on the recall. …”
NHTSA complaint #10511778, filed 2013-05, 71,250 miles“Brakes were loose took to shop told it was master cylinder, went through three master cylinders then the ABS, brake warning lights came on the dash panel, lost cruise control. Took to dealer and they said not covered by any recall. It is a question whether the brakes will stop the car in time since we need to go almost to the floor to stop. Dealer said $4,000+ to get it fixed, and it is okay to drive as it is. Who is responsible if a life is lost or property damage occurs? Shouldn't a part as significant as the ABS module be warranted or relaced?”
NHTSA complaint #10735888, filed 2015-07, 200,000 miles“2007 Hyundai Azera (6 cyld). Engine intermittently revs to high speed when braking. Several trips to the dealer have failed to resolve the issue. This occurs as the car is downshifting (usually as pressure is applied to the brake).”
