“Just recently my brakes have become extremely soft and the vehicle is slow to respond to braking. I have had the brakes pads replaced and still and extremely soft pedal with little to no braking reaction until I am almost to the floorboard. Like others have said there was a recall but my vehicle was not included. This happens every time and is not sporadic as some have stated.”
NHTSA complaint #11205375, filed 2019-05, 68,000 miles“Takata recall > my 2011 Hyundai Genesis sedan has been granting many problems with starting. Sometimes it will start up immediately, then sometimes it will start slowly or not start at all and simply revert to a clicking and no start. This seems to also be giving many other drivers problems as I look online. Please update this information as I do not wish to be left stranded. The vehicle is off when this problem occurs.”
NHTSA complaint #11080039, filed 2018-03, 131,000 miles“I took this car to the north charleston Hyundai about 3 weeks ago around 6/16/17, told them about my braking issue and they told me after they inspected it that it would cost me 4-5 thousand dollars to fix my vehicle. The dealer said it was the recalled part that went bad. Now they are saying its not and Hyundai USA isn't standing by their product either said I was out of warranty by 5000 miles and they can't fix it. Its all on me now. …”

My brakes have on three occasions failed which almost resulted in a serious accident.I brought this to Hyundai attention. But they tell me there's nothing they can do about it. It's on me. Now my car is up for inspection and it won't pass because of this issue..it will cost me $500.00 for the mechanic to replace the master cylinder just to pass inspection...if there's a defect in the fluid which causes corrosion, and now the master cylinder and h.e.c.u. …”
