Recalls on the 2014 Hyundai Genesis

A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

Canada — Transport Canada

Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones.

Recall 2023125 404,543 units in Canada

Brakes

Issue: Hyundai is conducting a special service campaign that provides anti-corrosion treatment to certain underbody components. Over time, components under the vehicle, including brake lines could corrode. If this happens, a brake line could fail and leak. A brake fluid leak can result in reduced braking. Safety Risk: Reduced braking can cause an extended stopping distance and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Hyundai will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the underbody, including the brake lines. The dealer will apply an anti-corrosion treatment to certain parts, and replace the brake lines if necessary.

Recalls cover specific build ranges, so check your own vehicle by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or, in Canada, Transport Canada.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

ON JULY 4 2017 AT APPROXIMATELY 7:30AM ET I WAS WAITING TO PARK AND HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE REVVED AND ACCELERATED, MOVING THE CAR FORWARD AND CRASHING INTO THE PASSENGER REAR BUMPER OF A PARKED FORD F-150. I PRESSED EVEN HARDER ON THE BRAKES AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO MOVE FORWARD AS IF IT WAS SLIDING ON ICE; IT CREATED TIRE SKID MARKS FROM MY FRONT TIRES - SUPPORTING THAT THE BRAKES WERE ENGAGED. I ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV FASTER. THE NOSE OF MY CAR WAS LOWERED DUE TO MY PRESSING ON THE BRAKES AND AS A RESULT THE FRONT END OF MY CAR WENT UNDER THE BUMPER OF THE TRUCK AND BEGAN LIFTING THE TRUCK UNTIL IT FINALLY CAME TO A STOP. THE CONDITIONS WERE SUNNY AND THE ASPHALT WAS DRY. ON FRIDAY JUNE 23 AT APPROXIMATELY 2:00PM ET I WAS BACKING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY, WHICH HAS A SLIGHT VERTICAL DECLINE, SO THE BRAKES WERE ENGAGED. THE CAR'S ENGINE SUDDENLY REVVED AND ACCELERATED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY INTO THE STREET; ONCE AGAIN, IT FELT AS IF I WAS SLIDING. THE BRAKES WERE FULLY ENGAGED. I WAS ABLE TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND THE CAR CAME TO A STOP. I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED WITHOUT ANY ISSUE. REGARDING THE JUNE 23 INCIDENT, THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVEN FOR APPROXIMATELY 6-8 DAYS. RELATING TO THE INCIDENT ON JULY 4; THE LAST TIME THE CAR WAS DRIVEN WAS ON JUNE 23. FROM JUNE 23 THROUGH JULY 4 THE CAR WAS PARKED AT THE AIRPORT. THE ONLY PARALLEL THAT I CAN DRAW BETWEEN THESE TWO INSTANCES IS THAT THE ENGINE REV AND ACCELERATION OCCURRED AFTER THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THIS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER DRIVERS; HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER CLAIMS THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH THE CAR AND THAT IT IS HUMAN ERROR; AVOIDING ACCOUNTABILITY. I WILL TAKE A POLYGRAPH TO PROVE THIS WAS NOT HUMAN ERROR, RATHER A MECHANICAL FAILURE.

SERVICE BRAKES

I have had intermittent brake pedal to the floor issue for the past two years. It started off occasionally, but turned into daily. It's very very dangerous as the brakes barely work. To remedy, I had the brake rotors and pads changed, brake fluid flushed. Did not fix the issue. Had the Master Cylinder replaced and it fixed the issue, but then two days later my brakes started binding (opposite problem). Replaced the HECU / ABS Module and still have the same issue. Now the car is not drivable because the brakes are binding. I called a local Hyundai Dealership to see if they would try a goodwill HECU service, since previous years Hyundai Genesis were recalled with the exact same issue, but they said they would not do it for me. So I am trying to work out the issue through independent mechanics. This is a very dangerous issue as the brakes do not work and is a widespread issue affecting multiple BH model Hyundai Genesis owners.

Any car with the drive by wire is effected with this problem, and should be looked into and repaired.
