NHTSA complaint #11484263, filed 2022-09, 19,000 miles“Auto brake fault has been a constant issue with this 2021 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid.

They finally figured out that replacing the rear calipers seemed to make it stop. They have done that twice and this past weekend the fault warning appeared again. So, for the 4th time, we will be taking the car back in so this error goes away. …”

Also, the other safety features seem to stop working during the time this warning is activated. Emergency stop, et cetera. Only activated when vehicle is operating under highway mph. Typically local roads with stops/starts trigger this issue. Mechanics have no idea what is wrong with vehicle warning. …”
