 Description of the problemOn december 28th i was driving in my '09 v6 genesis on the interstate for about 20 minutes and i took a downhill exit with a stop sign at the bottom of the hill. Thank the universe that the road was empty because as i applied the brakes to slow down they went to the floor and the car barely slowed down at all. As i got closer and closer to the stop sign i had to pump the brakes about 4 more times with them going all the way to the floor each time. The car finally slowed down to about 10 miles an hour. As nobody was at the sign at the bottom of the hill i was able to coast slowly through the stop sign and turn left to use the emergency brake to come to a complete stop. I then turned the car off and back on to try the brakes again. They went to the floor about 4 more times and then the pressure finally returned. This is some scary stuff since i was on the highway for about 20 minutes and i know for a fact that i would have crashed into someone had i been driving during rush hour traffic and there been a line to get off the interstate. I got the car home safely that afternoon and parked it to leave the country for vacation. I returned on the night of new years day and dropped the car off on the morning on january 2nd. The dealer said they would look into the problem. I got a call from them yesterday saying they cannot repeat the problem (of course) but also mentioned that they had to replace the master brake cylinder on a genesis just last week for the exact same problem. Ironically enough i was speaking with my coworker about this (he has a genesis) and he said his dad has a genesis and just had the exact same problem 2 weeks ago, to which the dealer replaced some abs parts on his car. Please look at this forum to see others who are experiencing problems with their brakes (http://www. Genesisowners. Com/hyundai-genesis-forum/showthread. Php? T=9926).

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
