| Description of the problem | The brake pedal goes to the floor when stopping the car. Once stopped you have tp pump the brakes to keep the car from moving forward. The hyundai dealer indicated that this was an abs failure and he has replaced many units already.. My car is out of warranty. I went on to the hyundai owners forum for the genesis and this has happened alot to these cars. Hyundai has replaced these abs units when the car was out of warranty. This is a safety issue and a failure to warn owners of a continuing problem. |
