2012 HYUNDAI GENESIS Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI GENESIS. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SAFFORD HYUNDAI (LOCATED AT 7615 LOISDALE ROAD, SPRINGFIELD, VA 22150, TEL: (703) 776-9040) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HYDRAULIC ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V489000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 10367277.

I PURCHASED THE CAR IN JANUARY 2017 AFTER 2 MONTHS OF HAVING THE CAR THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT GO UP. I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT HOURS FOR IT TO START BACK WORKING. THE SUSPENSION WAS LOW FOR A FEW WEEKS THEN IT WOULD SLOWLY COME BACK UP. BASICALLY MY WHOLE CAR HAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS BACK UP CAMERA GOES BLACK, THE ODOMETER HAS DEAD PIXELS, CAR EXTREMELY SLUGGISH, THE CAR SHAKES AND KILLS ALOT. ALSO WHEN I TURN THE HEATED SEATS ON IT TURNS OFF WITHIN 2 MINUTES. IT IS SO MUCH THE CAR IS DOING TO SAY THIS CAR HAS A CLEAN CARFAX.

I WAS DRIVING TO MY WORK. I SAW RED LIGHT SIGNAL AND STEPPED ON BRAKE PEDAL. BUT THE PEDAL JUST WENT DOWN VERY SOFTLY WITHOUT STOPPING MY CAR. MY CAR STOPPED AFTER I PRESSED FULL FORCE ON BRAKE PEDAL. BY THE TIME MY CAR STOPPED IT ALREADY PASSED 15 FEET FROM THE STOP LINE WHERE I HAD TO STOP.

THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE, I KNOW OTHERS HAVE REPORTED A SIMILAR PROBLEM. WHEN COMING TO A STOP IN OUR 2012 GENESIS 3.8L THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN A DOZEN TIMES AT THIS POINT. MY WIFE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO SAID THIS ISSUE COULDN'T BE DUPLICATED. THE CAR HAS DIED IN TRAFFIC AND WHEN GOING AROUND A CURVE. POWER STEERING IS LOST WHEN THIS OCCURS MAKING IT A BIT NERVE WRACKING. THIS IS AN ISSUE HYUNDAI NEEDS TO ADDRESS BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR WORSE.
