| Description of the problem | Brake pedal wants to go to the floor nearly at times, before the car begins to stop, with less than 48,000 miles on the car. Issue just started doing this, right after my last service appointment, where i was advised that my front brakes needed to be replaced and that my warranty had ended a month earlier. This problem points to a possible $2600 hecu unit problem. Amazing how this started right after i had service performed. Please investigate and have all 2012 hyundai genesis vehicles recalled to have the brake fluid changed, new brake booster, and the hecu module replaced at the same time, before someone gets killed. |
