Brake system failure. Brake pedal and goes all the way to the floor. Hyundai dealership explained that the HECU has failed. In 2014 there was a recall on this car for this issue, Hyundai Recall 114. This recall was for "GENESIS SEDAN HECU INSPECTION AND BRAKE FLUID REPLACEMENT". The known issue is that the part breaks down over time and just changing the brake fluid doesn-€™t stop the corrosion process. The HECU part should have been replaced and not allowed to degrade further as it has now done on my vehicle.

The brake pedal of my car is soft and deep, and the braking is not done properly. After about a month and a half, the symptoms appeared and I changed the brake pads. Every day driving is a continuation of tension. I went to the designated service center and inspected it. During the re-run, the same phenomenon continued, and after a week again, I had to change the ABS module. How much of an ABS module does it have grounded like a brake pad? I can't understand it. I looked at the internet and the model I was riding was subject to recall.

I own a 2012 Hyundai Genesis and experience a very low grip on my brake pedal. It has just been confirmed from a Hyundai dealership that the hecu is bad and needs to be replaced (11/20/19). Hyundai has recalled certain model year 2009-2012 Genesis sedans under recall 114 or NHTSA campaign 13V489 for the hecu. I have been told, however, that my VIN does not qualify for the safety repair. I find it highly unusual that I am experiencing the identical problem that so many other Genesis sedans have faced, yet am being denied the necessary repair. I am asking that my VIN be included in the recall as I am very concerned for my safety at this point. Keeping in mind the safety of others as well, all Genesis sedans made during 2009 and 2012 should be re-looked at again. It is a $3000 fix and I cannot tell you how unfair it is to know that other Hyundai Genesis owners have had their hecu's replaced under the recall. Why is their safety more important than mine?

Hyundai was fine for recall long overdue. Attached is diagnosis, recall from NHTSA and fine. Thank you for your help.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Genesis. While driving 35 mph, the brake pedal had to be depressed to the floorboard and the vehicle eventually stopped.

The vehicle was not repaired due to the cost. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who confirmed the same failure and informed the contact of the recall.

I was driving at a speed of about 50mph when a large truck ran through a stoplight on 9/10/2017. I applied my brakes and the pedal went all the way to the floor. The vehicle slowed and I was able to narrowly avoid the truck actually by inches. My car was towed to the Hyundai dealer and has had the ABS brake module replaced. The brake fluid recall TL6 was performed 6/17/2013. On 5/26/2016 I took the Genesis to the dealer because of a similar brake failure. Dealer told me everything was normal and sent me home with the car. I was not notified that this has been a danger with this car. I feel it is a serious danger to me and to the safety of the public and I should have been notified of the danger when the fluid recall was done in 2013.

While driving the car to work I noticed that the brakes suddenly went soft. The car would slow down when I hit the pedal but in order to stop the car I had to nearly press the brake pedal to the floor. Later in the same drive the brakes functioned normally. I didn't notice another problem with the brakes for at least a week until my daughter drove the car and nearly hit someone because the brakes did not stop as she expected. I noticed that if I pumped the brake pedal the pressure would return for a while but then it would go soft again once I drove it and the pedal is pressed. At the point the pressure would not return consistently and it was questionable if the car would stop I took it to the dealership. The service department informed me that the ABS module has failed and that it would be a matter of time before my brakes would totally fail. There was no indication of the ABS module failing. No ABS light; no brake light; no check engine light. For this to affect the safety system of the car I would expect there to be some type of indication of failure. The dealer informed me that the module is $2200 for replacement! the car is only 5 years old why would the ABS module fail in such a relatively new vehicle?
