Hyundai Genesis 2011 — Problemas relatados

Noticed after driving my Hyundai genesis and once running for roughly 15-20 mins once the engine has warmed up I noticed a bounce feeling coming from the front end(I thought)and then noticed my speed dropped and when pressure was apply to the gas pedal it wouldn’t go, as the car slowed down by itself until it came to a complete stop I cutt the car off and began walking around to where I smelled something burning and then seen smoke coming from my front driver wheel to discover my brake had locked up for no reason. I left the car to cool down and returned to get it and luckily it was unlocked and was successful to drive it home(4min drive), a couple days later I had to take my son to school to where it did the exact same thing again, days later I had all braking replaced which failed to solve the issue. This has been happening for over 4 months now and has always been my daily driver and has always been upkept and never had any issues with my car until now. I’m a single parent with two children whom I have to take to school daily and pickup and this issue has already cost me a lot however I was made aware of this issue by a professional mechanic whom said my car has a current recall for this exact issue I’m having but my vin doesn’t show it even thought everything lines up!

Passenger side seat's active headrest auto deployed/broke when I was driving the car alone. This might be safety issue if driver seat headrest also breaks while driving.

When the car gets wet, it sends my dashboard lights flashing, and I’m able to put the car in gear without stepping on the brake, I brought it to numerous of Honda dealerships and other mechanical shops, and they are undetermined to find the cause

The contact’s son owns a 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe. The contact stated the brake light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who performed a pressure test and determined that the ABS module had failed due to a leak. The contact was informed that the ABS module needed to be replaced. The contact stated that brake fluid was added for the brake light to turn off. The dealer informed the contact the vehicle was unsafe to drive. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 57,444.

The brake lines and fuel lines were corroded. The corrosion of the brake lines would lead to brake failure and the corrosion of the fuel lines would lead to a fire. The Hyundai dealer was the first to find the brake problem and after inspection by my mechanic, the fuel lines were also found to be corroded. I took my car in for a recall service at the dealer and after the service my brake light would illuminate when decelerating(with or without brakes being applied) .

The contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed during a rainstorm, there was water leaking into the interior of the vehicle through the rear windshield. The contact observed mold developing throughout the interior of the vehicle. Later, the contact stated that upon attempting to start the vehicle, there was a fuel odor inside the vehicle. After a visual inspection, the contact observed fuel leaking in the engine compartment. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a failure with the fuel rail after observing a crack in the fuel rail. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 152,000.

VIN tool confirms parts not available.

The car stops while driving and all the lights on the dash lights up. Happened a couple of times in the last 2 days, both the times the speed was around 20-30 mph. I am really worried about the issue and called the closest Hyundai dealer at San Bruno, CA who gave an appointment in May to check it.

The HECU has been malfunctioning in my car for over a year now. It is an open recall for my make, model and year of car. I took it to Bob Rohrman Indy Hyundai and they diagnosed the failed part. This part affects my ABS. There are currently two warning lights on one for the ECS which is the traction control stabilizer and the ABS light is on. Meaning the use of the breaking system is limited and not working properly. I have asked the corporate Hyundai to uphold the recall warranty but I was advised they would not cover this because my vehicle has a rebuilt title. I drive my vehicle on a daily basis and I’m terrified of my brakes going out. The corrosion from the fluid is what causes the HECU to malfunction and it is so scary to think about. This problem was diagnosed and first reported to my his dealership on 6/23/2022.

Headlights will intermittently flicker off for several seconds when using turn signal. I understand this is already noted in TSB 20-BE-009H

The car accelerates itself randomly. It’s happened with a lot of Genesis’s of this generation. Almost crashed due to it. Very unsafe. Gave the vehicle to a friend and the problem reoccurred and he captured a video that I have

The window regulators are built with a hard plastic that essentially melts in Florida heat and then your windows just drop. Each window in my car has dropped and will not go back up without paying Hyundai a lot of money to repair the window. For instance, in December 2022 I paid Hyundai $660 to repair the right rear window and in August 2022 I paid Hyundai $651 to repair the left rear window regulator (second repair). Now the front driver side window has to be repaired for the second or third time. The parts were ordered and just the parts will cost $900 and I still will have to pay the labor expenses for inferior made materials. The driver side window was replaced and a new regulator was installed by Napleton Hyundai in West Palm Beach. I do not have the paperwork for the repairs made by Napleton. Then Coastal Hyundai in Melbourne, Florida worked on the rest of the windows including putting in a new regulator in the driver side and will install a new motor. These windows are neither reliable nor safe and should not have been constructed with plastic. They just fall and will not go back up. The window parts should have been recalled and replaced. I attached a copy of the invoices that I have paid already and could locate. Also, I want to report that when I contacted Hyundai to issue a complaint about the right rear window in December 2022 it took 30 days for the customer service representative to respond to me. He apparently, would document that he planned to call me in the computer and never followed through. I called and asked to talk to his Supervisor and was told that I would have to talk with him. Not having a Supervisor to talk with was also a problem because he knew that I could only talk to him so he took his time. I don't know if anything will be done but I wanted to document my concerns.

The contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake pedal went to the floorboard while depressed. The contact firmly depressed the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The contact changed the brake fluid; however, the failure recurred. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V489000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulics). The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 98,000.

I was driving home on January 1, 2023 at 5 AM at about 60 mph on an interstate when I heard a sound come from the back of my car and then looked into the rearview mirror and smelled smoke and saw fire flames in my rear and side mirrors. I tried to use my brakes to stop my car, but the brakes would not work, so I took it out of Drive and put it into park… which slowed the car down and I was able to exit the car right before it burst into flames. The car is now a total loss.

Part number 82655-2M000 door handle base broke. This makes it so the door cannot be opened from the outside. If I were in an accident and my door was crushed no one could open the other door to get me out. This same pet was in a safety recall for a different model of theirs.

Brakes stop working randomly. Press pedal down and there is very little braking power. Had to pump brakes and limp home. Came back after sitting a while. This has happened several times - 6/7.

While driving on the highway at 65MPH the driver front tire wables, the tires feel unsafe and not stable. When going over long road cracks on the highway the whole car wabbles and if i dont grab the stearing wheel really hard to not loose control of the vehicle. The ESC light its always on so i know the traction or stability control is not working properly, also the TPM light is also not working because its always been on since purchased the car.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI GENESIS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS SQUISHY WHICH RESULTED IN FARTHER BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V489000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 56,000.

THE CAR WAS PARKED (NOT RUNNING OR MOVING) IN AN OPEN AIR GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT. I WAS IN THE GROCERY STORE FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES AND CAME OUT TO FIND A CROWD AND A FIRE CREW WHO HAD JUST PUT OUT THE FIRE IN THE HOOD AREA OF MY CAR. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE CAR BUT THEY ARE ON MY PHONE AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SEND THEM TO COMPUTER.

IBRAKE FAILURE! HYDRAULIC MODULE ASSY FAILURE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND DURING THE DRIVE, MY BRAKE ALL OF A SUDDEN BECAME SOFT AND REQUIRED ME TO PUSH ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO STOP THE CAR. I BELIEVE IT'S REFERRED TO AS SPONGY BRAKES. I TOOK THE CAR TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY DIAGNOSED A FAULTY HYDRAULIC MODULE ASSEMBLY. I ALSO CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY MENTIONED THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKE FLUID DUE TO ITS POTENTIAL TO CAUSE CORROSION IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM. THE DEALER IS NOW QUOTING ME ~$3,400 TO REPAIR AND REPLACE THE HYDRAULIC MODULE ASSY. WOW!! I CALLED HYUNDAI USA AND THEY SAID SINCE THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR, I INFORMED THEM OF THE RECALL ON FLUID AND THEY SAID IT DOES NOT COVER THE PARTS THAT WERE DAMAGED BY THE BAD FLUID. THIS IS UNFAIR AND EXCESSIVE BEHAVIOR ON THE PART HYUNDAI. CLEARLY THEY RECOGNIZED THE FLUID WAS DAMAGING BRAKE COMPONENTS BUT ARE UNWILLING TO COVER RELATED REPAIRS. THE BRAKES ON THIS CAR ARE AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPENING SINCE THE BRAKES ARE FAILING. I WOULD NOT BUY ANOTHER HYUNDAI VEHICLE KNOWING THEY WON'T COVER CRITICAL SAFETY COMPONENTS. OTHERS HAVE VOICED THE SAME ISSUE WITH NO SUPPORT FROM HYUNDAI. *TR

THE HYUNDAI GENESIS COUPE 2011 WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING THE CRASH. HYUNDAI INSPECTED THE CAR AND DENIED ANY RESPONSIBILITY. *TR

CAR HAS SHUT OFF TWICE WHILE DRIVING AT A SLOW SPEED. JERKS THEN SHUTS OFF WHILE IN DRIVE AND FOOT ON BRAKE. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT WITH NO ISSUES. NO LIGHTS OR ANY THING CAME ON. I WAS AT A STOP SIGN.

THE Z01 DIODE FAILED CAUSING THE BRAKE LIGHTS NOT TO ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED. THERE IS NO WARNING TO THE DRIVER THAT THIS FAILURE HAS OCCURRED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HYUNDAI. THEY RELEASED A TSB, TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 09-BE-023, CONCERNING THE ISSUE BUT THE SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE SAME DIODE WHEN IT HAS FAILED. NO IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO MAKE THE PART MORE RELIABLE. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DRIVER HAS NO INDICATION THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT WORK PUTTING THEM, PASSENGERS, AND OTHER DRIVERS AT RISK OF A SERIOUS REAR END COLLISION.

MY CAR AT 58000 MILES WHENEVER I BRAKE ON SLIPPERY SURFACE WHERE ABS IS ACTIVATED MY BRAKE PEDAL GOES NEARLY DOWN TO FLOOR. AND CONTINUOUS FOR DAYS GOING DOWN NEARLY TO FLOOR ON NORMAL BRAKING BEFORE BRAKE PEDAL COMES BACK UP TO NORMAL LEVEL AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW EVERY TIME ABS IS ACTIVATED. DEALER WANTS NEARLY $3000. TO REPLACE THE ABS.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY BRAKES HAD BEEN WORKING FINE. ON MY WAY TO WORK WHILE APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT MY BRAKE PEDAL WAS PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH LITTLE RESULT. I AM MEDIATELY PUMP MY BRAKES AFTERWARDS AND THE CORDED STOP. THE REST OF THE WAY TO WORK I HAD TO CONTINUOUSLY PUMP MY BRAKES IN ORDER TO STOP. MY BRAKE FLUID WAS CHECKED AND WAS FULL. I DROVE HOME WITH SAME ISSUE AND HAVE NOT DROVE CAR SINCE. WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST HAPPENED I CAME OFF A HIGHWAY EXIT TO A STOP LIGHT.

FREEWAY DRIVING AT SPEED LIMIT (65MPH) PASSENGER SEAT HEAD REST SELF ENERGIZED CAUSING PASSENGER TO BECOME UNCONCIOUS FOR ONE OR TWO MINUTES, WITHOUT WARNING. AUTO HAD NO ACCICENTS NOR ANY OTHER DAMAGE TO HEADREST OR SEAT. PASSENGER COMMENT AFTER HE BECAME CONCIOUS WAS "WHY DID YOU HIT ME." PRECEEDED BY A NOISE LIKE A METAL PIPE BEING DROPPED. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THE 'REAR END COLLISION SENSOR LOCATED AT SEAT BASE TO ENERGIZE. THE HEADREST CAME FORWARD STRIKING BACK OF HEAD CAUSING A POSSIBLE CONCUSION. A DIFFERENT RESULT WOULD HAVE CAUSED DEATH IF IT WAS THE DRIVER SIDE. FAILURE WAS CAUSED BE SPRING TENSION CONTINIOUS ON PLASTIC AND BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR PIECES, BUT ONLY THE FRONT PART IS AVAILABLE FOR REPAIR. THIS FORCES REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE HEADREST ASSEMBLY. (QUOTED $792). REPAIR NOT AVAILABLE IN A TIMELY MANNER.

THE HEADREST DISENGAGED INTO 2 PARTS AND HURT MY GIRLFIREND'S NECK.

THE POWER-STEERING IS LEAKING FLUID AND THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS. THE 1ST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS IN OCTOBER 2016 WHEN THE CAR HAD 25,822 MILES, AND HAPPY HYUNDAI REPLACED THE RACK SET AND THE POWER STEERING LINE. THE PROBLEM RE-OCCURRED IN SEPTEMBER 14, 2019 WHEN THE CAR HAD 51,784 MILES, AND NAPLETON-RIVER OAKS HYUNDAI SAID THE CAR IS LEAKING POWER-STEERING FLUID, AND WHEN I DROVE THE CAR BEFORE TAKING IT IN FOR REPAIRS, I NOTICED DIFFICULTY IN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RECEIVE A SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC FROM NAPLETON HYUNDAI BECAUSE THE CAR IS STILL IN THE SHOP AND THEY DISCOVERED THE ISSUE AFTER I LEFT. I ALSO CONTACTED HYUNDAI'S NATIONAL CONSUMER AFFAIRS OFFICE ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT IT DOESN'T APPEAR THEY WILL FORWARD TO THEIR TECHNICAL OFFICE.

IN 2016, I FILED COMPLAINT # 1084551 REGARDING THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN WHEN MY CAR HAD ONLY 23000 MILES. UNFORTUNATELY NEITHER THIS AGENCY OR HYUNDAI USA GAVE ME THE AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENED, AND HAPPY HYUNDAI KEPT MY CAR FOR 43 DAYS TO REPLACE VARIOUS ENGINE PARTS. NOW IN 2019, THE CONNECTOR TO THE COOLANT FAN MELTED WHICH IS RELATED TO THE ECM MODULE. THERE WAS AN ECM RECALL AT THE TIME IN MARCH 2016 BUT IT APPEARS THAT THE SPECIFICATIONS OF THE RECALL DIDNT ADDRESS/FIX THE PROBLEM. FURTHER, IT APPEARS THAT THE PROBLEM I ENCOUNTERED IN 2016, THEE ECM RECALL AND THE PROBLEM I HAVE ENCOUNTERED ON JULY 25, 2019 ARE VERY RELATED. I CAN ONLY HOPE AND IMPLORE THOS AGENCY TO LOOK FURTHER INTO THESE ISSUES. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THE DIAGANOSTIC I WAS GIVEN SAID THEE THERMOSTATE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND A COOLANT FLUSH. ALSO TOLD THE A/C COMPRESSOR AND HOSE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ON AUGUST 14TH THE THERMOSTATE, SENSOR AND COOLANT FLUSH WAS COMPLETED BY HAPPY HYUNDAI BUT THE ENGINE CAME BACK ON THE SAME DAY AFTER I DROVE ON THE EXPRESSWAY. I TOOK MY CAR INTO ANOTHER O. AUGUST 20, 2019 AND WAS TOLD MY CAR WASS MISSED DIAGNOSED AND THAT THE COOLANT FAN CONTROLLER HAD SHORTED AND THE CONNECTOR TO THAT COMPONENT HAD MELTED. THIS IS ALL RELATED TO THE ECM MODULE.

THE AIRBAG ON MY DASHBOARD THE SEAM HAS SPLIT. MY CAR IS NOT PARKED IN THE SUN AND THIS STARTED OFF AS INCH NOW IT EXTENDS TO THE HOLD SIDE OF THE AIRBAG.

I HAD 53,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. DRIVING ON HIGHWAY MY STEERING WHEEL GOT STIFF AND TOOK AN EXIT. MY VEHICLE WAS IN SMOKE AND TOWED TO NEAR BY HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER. I WAS TOLD THAT TIMING BELT GOT BROKEN AND THAT IN-TURN CAUSED DAMAGE TO ENGINE PISTONS. HYUNDAI DECLINED TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE, AND SAID I HAVE TO PAY FOR ALL THE REPAIRS. I HAD TO SELL THE CAR FOR A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS, BECAUSE THEY ASKED ABOUT 7K TO FIX A REPLACEMENT ENGINE.

MY BRAKE PEDAL IS GOING ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR IT USED TO DO IT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE BUT NOW IT IS A CONSTANT THING. THE CAR DOES STOP BUT IT FEELS REALLY MUSHY, I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER, HOWEVER AFTER READING ONLINE A LOT OFF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND REPLACING THE MASTER CYLINDER ISN'T THE PROBLEM

RECALL ON CAR BACK IN 2014 FOR BRAKE FAILURE. IMPROPER FLUID USED CAUSING ABS ASSIST MODULE TO FAIL RESULTING IN SOFT BREAK PEDAL. PURCHASED VEHICLE IN 2014 USED AND NEVER TOLD OF THIS ISSUE AFTER PURCHASING VEHICLE NOR NEVER SENT ANY INFO. ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS , DRIVE SEAT WONT RESPOND , WIND SHIELD WIPERS RANDOMLY TURNING ON . TAIL LIGHTS NOT WORKING ALSO ON RECALL. THIS NOTIFICATION ALSO NEVER SENT TO USE RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE BEING REAR ENDED LAST YEAR . PASSENGER SEAT HEAD REST DEPLOYED AND NOT DRIVERS. CAR WAS FIXED AND A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO THE PASSENGER HEAD RESET DEPLOYED AGAIN HITTING MY DAUGHTER AND AT THE SAME EXPLODED AND CAME OF ITS FRAME LANDING IN THE BACK SEAT. HYUNDIA DEALER WONT DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHATS ON RECALL NOW.

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.

MY FATHER IS CURRENTLY LOOKING AFTER MY VEHICLE AND WHILE HE WAS DOING ROUTINE CHECKS WHEN WENT TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PETAL IT SANK ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. HE LATER TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO THEN BLEED THE SYSTEM A FEW TIMES ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE FRONT RIGHT BRAKE AND REAR LEFT BRAKE ARE OPERATING AS NORMAL. AS IT WOULD TURN OUT, HOWEVER, HYUNDAI ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS BUT ONLY FOR THE GENESIS SEDANS AND NOT THE COUPES. HYUNDAI RECALL #114 AND NHTSA RECALL #13V489000 STATE THE BRAKE FLUID THE MANUFACTURE USES DOES NOT PROTECT THE H.E.C.U. OR HYDRAULIC ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (A.K.A. ABS CONTROL UNIT) AGAINST INTERNAL CORROSION. SO THE INTERNAL VALVES WILL CORRODED AND PREVENT THE BRAKES FROM OPERATING PROPERLY. IN MY 2011 GENESIS COUPE THIS IS CURRENTLY THE ISSUE. OTHER COUPE OWNERS ARE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES WHERE THEY CAN'T STOP THE CAR PROPER AND/OR THE BRAKE PETAL SINKS TO THE FLOOR AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING SLOW OR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE BRAKE DON'T OPERATE PROPERLY OR AT ALL! THE MANUFACTURE SEEMS TO BE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. REPLACING THE MASTER CYLINDER AND COMPLETELY BLEEDING THE SYSTEM DOESN'T HAVE ANY AFFECT FOR THE ISSUE. TO REPLACE THE UNIT, I'M LOOKING AT ROUGHLY $3,200 OF MY OWN MONEY TO REPLACE THE H.E.C.U DUE TO DEFECTIVE BRAKE FLUID THAT HAS CORRODED THE INTERNALS. THE CAR HAS BARELY BEEN DRIVEN WITH LESS ABOUT 30K MILES ON IT. THIS A GRAVE SAFETY CONCERN AND HYUNDAI NEEDS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES FOR NOT JUST THE SEDANS BUT THE COUPES AS WELL! IF I OR THE DRIVER OF MY CAR NEEDED TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP THERE IS NO TELLING IF THE BRAKES WOULD OPERATE IN THAT MOMENT AS THEY SHOULD. INJURY OR DEATH COULD OCCUR FOR NOT JUST THE DRIVER BUT OTHER CASUALTIES THAT COULD BE PREVENTED IF HYUNDAI FIXES THIS ISSUE FOR ALL HYUNDAI GENESIS COUPES. BRAKE OPERATION IS VASTLY IMPORTANT IN ALL VEHICLES. THIS PROBLEM IS SERIOUS.

MY 2011 GENESIS SEDAN (4.6L V8) HAS AN INCREASINGLY SOFT, SPONGY BRAKE PEDAL PAST YEAR OR SO. THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING IN/OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD, ON BUSY NJ HIGHWAYS, AND WHEN PARKED WITH ENGINE RUNNING. HAD ROTORS, PADS, MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE FLUID REPLACED RECENTLY (~2 MONTHS AGO; $1200; RECEIPTS AVAILABLE). DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THE CAR AND PUTTING ME/OTHER DRIVERS AT RISK. FROM RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM, INCLUDING RECENTLY LEARNING ABOUT THE RECALL OF 2009-2012 MODELS FOR BRAKE PROBLEMS, I AM GUESSING THAT EITHER THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND/OR ABS BRAKE MODULE ARE FAILING. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND AM ITS ONLY OWNER. CAR HAS ONLY 73,000 CAREFUL MILES ON IT. I'M RELUCTANT TO SPEND ANY MORE MONEY. WHAT CAN I DO?
