Approached an exit from a parking lot and the brake pedal went all the way to the floor without applying the brake. Was able to pump the brake pedal and get the brakes to work. The pedal now is about half of what it used to be and requires pumping each time the brakes are used to apply the brakes. Pedal is erratic; sometimes I have about half pedal before a firm brake pedal. Other times it is even lower. I have no pictures or documentation to include that would be relevant to this issue.

Brake failure. Brake pedal must be pumped to completely depress the brakes and stop the car. This issue persists throughout use of the vehicle and no matter whether at highway speeds or in town. The issue began suddenly and has been consistent with the vehicle since that point. The brakes not being fully functional render the car unsafe to drive under any driving conditions. Cruise control light turns on intermittently and cruise control is fequently unavailable on the car.

Brake pedal goes to floorboard -- can pump and get partial brake - afraid to drive at higher speeds -- have had the master cylinder replaced and brake system bled- did not help the problem

On October 23rd, 2019, the brakes on my 2012 Hyundai Genesis R-spec sedan suddenly failed with the brake pedal going all the way to the floor before the vehicle eventually stopped luckily avoiding an accident. I was driving on the highway. The vehicle has 79K miles. I then took the car to the Hyundai dealer in St. Louis park, mn and they determined that the brake master cylinder was faulty and replaced. The diagnosis and repair did not fix the issue as the brake pedal was still spongy and going to the floor intermittently. I will be taking the car back to the dealer to have them fix it correctly. While researching the issue, I have found that multiple other owners of the same car have experienced this issue and the dealer had to replace the ABS hydraulic electronic control unit (hecu) as it contained corrosion within the unit due to bad design which causes hydraulic braking failure to occur at any time. This campaign/recall below outlines the issue which I am going to present to the dealer to fix correctly as I am still under warranty. To me, this is a life or death type failure and could result in injuries. Hyundai should be responsible for replacing all ABS hecu before lives are lost for all 2009-2012 Hyundai Genesis, not just some vins that they deemed troublesome. They should take responsibility for all cars and immediately contact their owners.

Having issues with brakes going all the way to floor. Have had them replaced and after a few months problem returns. Was this vehicle repaired as part of recall 114 NHTSA recall 13V489000.

When the brake pedal was depressed today 08/23/19, it traveled to the floorboard, barely escaping rear ends of several vehicles on the highway and city streets. There was no warning indicator illuminated. There is no evidence of a brake fluid leak. There is the appropriate amount of brake fluid in the reservoir. Having entered my VIN # into this site has provided no recalls. Although reading everything about no.114, that I have sounds like it should be and it should be corrected. Some people, who have also had this problem, said that the brake fluid used was causing failure in the master brake cylinder valves. This is obviously a manufacturer error, and Hyundai should be held responsible. I have unfortunately had to leave my car due to this safety hazard over hour and a half from home. This needs to be addressed/fixed quickly.

Driving home last night my entire braking system went out. I lost all control to use the brakes to stop and all indicator lights were lit up on the dashboard. I notice a recall issue with the hecu but looks like my vehicle is not included in the recall. Why is that?

Soft braking, intermittent. Pedal goes down to the floor and must be pumped to stop. I took it to my go-to guy who specializes in brakes and he couldn't recreate it. He took look at everything and couldn't find issue in the brakes themselves. Recently happened again.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Genesis. When the brake pedal was depressed, it traveled to the floorboard. There was no warning indicator illuminated. Napleton's North palm Hyundai (3703 northlake blvd, lake park, fl 33403, 1-888-691-9402) was contacted and stated that the VIN was excluded from NHTSA campaign number: 13V489000 (service brakes, hydraulic); however, the vehicle exhibited the same failure as the recall campaign. The vehicle was inspected by an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,000.

Brake pedal began is requiring more and more travel to achieve braking effectiveness. There is no evidence of a brake fluid leak. There is no reduction of brake fluid in the reservoir. The ability to modulate braking is impaired at times and one must pump the brake pedal to build pressure to stop.

Ref: NHTSA campaign no 13V489000 Hyundai Genesis 2012, 4.6L, V8, 4 door sedan, with approx 77000 miles. In the last 6 weeks we had the brake pedal go all the way to the floor 3 times with little or no braking occurring. Two weeks ago this car was taken into Liberty (feldman) Hyundai in new hudson, mich for repair of this brake problem. After $95 for an 'inspection, ' which did not include any oil change, the report was that no problem was found. This car was serviced in March, 2014, per Hyundai recall no. 114 bh hecu, which called for inspection and replacing the brake fluid. This was done. There have been no brake problems since that time until about 6 weeks ago.

This car was serviced in March, 2014, per Hyundai recall no. 114 bh hecu, which called for inspection and replacing the brake fluid. This was done. There have been no brake problems since that time until about 6 weeks ago. The bottom line is that even though Hyundai recall no. 114 was accomplished, the problem was never fully corrected. Some people, who have also had this problem, said that the brake fluid used was causing failure in the master brake cylinder valves. This is obviously a manufacturer's error, and Hyundai should be held responsible.
