Most Recent Complaints
2013 Hyundai Genesis sedan (BH) is experiencing the intermittent soft brake pedal and reduced braking pressure that matches the TSB 22-BR-001H for the HECU on 2009-2012 Genesis sedans. I took it to the local dealership but their mechanic said they could not recreate the condition. The ABS and ESC lights have both come on at times but I was told there are no stored codes. The tech noted that the rear driver brake pads appeared to have some additional wear indicating additional ABS activity or sticking brake pads. I paid to have a brake service performed and the brake fluid flush/replacement performed to eliminate the concern of any air entrapment or sticking brake pads. However, this work did not resolve the problem. The shop said there are no open recalls nor brake related TSBs for the 2013. They have not fully tested the master cylinder, booster, nor the HECU. With no support for the model year, despite the MANY issues reported for this problem on the 2013 and Hyundai's knowledge of these problems form 2009-2020 model years, this TSB should be expanded for additional model years and likely should be considered as a recall repair due to the safety risk of brake pressure loss.
Driving the vehicle between 35 and 40 mph, the vehicle completely shut off without warning. No check engine light prior to the vehicle shutting down. It was taking to the dealership for a scheduled oil change and the issue with was mention to the dealership. They told me that they hadn't heard of that issue at the time.
Brake pedal has to be pushed harder than normal to get brakes to engage. Dealer has diagnosed problem as faulty ABS module which is not considered as part of recall for CCU unit on other hyundai models
