| Description of the problem | 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. |
