The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact's wife and a nearby driver were able to guide the vehicle to the shoulder of the roadway. The contact's wife raised the hood, and the contact became aware that smoke was coming from the ABS module accompanied by electrical sparks. The contact’s wife turned the vehicle off. The contact noticed that the aluminum ABS module casing was burned. The contact disconnected the battery and the ABS fuse, which stopped the smoke and the electrical sparks.

SERVICE BRAKES

ABS Anti-Lock Brake System Failure (ABS Control Unit) As seen in NHTSA CAMPAIGN [XXX], for newer year models, The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) module may leak brake fluid internally and cause an electrical short, which can result in an engine compartment fire while parked or driving. This recall should also include 2008-2010 Hyundai Veracruz's as the ABS Module is the same part number and can leak brake fluid. This can lead to serious injury or death as the car may not function as intended or catch on fire. I noticed a strong burning smell similar to burning toast when the car was dropped off at the shop. My Mechanics noticed my ABS Control Unit had liquid coming out of the poorly sealed module, and told me to report this to the NTSHA. The unit had to be replaced for about $3800. The first symptom is the ESC Light flashing while driving. Others include the AWD Light, Brake Light, ABS Light, and, Traction Control Lights. On many forums like the link shown below other people have experienced this issue on the 2008 Hyundai Veracruz as well. This indicate that the recall should be pushed to ALL Veracruz models. Hyundai should be responsible for the safety of all Veracruz owners just not a few. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SERVICE BRAKES

Component or System Failed or Malfunctioned: The ABS harness connecting to the ABS module is the primary culprit. Specifically, the top part of the harness is not adequately sealed, which has led to water ingress and subsequent wire shorting. Availability for Inspection: No, the ABS harness is available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: The malfunctioning ABS harness poses a significant safety risk. When the ABS system fails, it affects braking performance, stability control, and traction control. This jeopardizes the safety of both the driver and other road users. Confirmation by Service Centers: While the issue was previously identified by the Hyundai Dealer it was attributed to a short in the Tow Hitch Wire. Unfortunately, the problem was not adequately resolved at that time. The recent appearance of the ESC Light, ABS Light, and Traction Control Light confirms that the issue persists. Inspections: The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives specifically for this issue. However, the symptoms (warning lights) have been observed consistently during driving. Warning Lamps and Symptoms: ESC Light: Periodic flashing and occasional getting stuck. ABS Light and Traction Control Light: Illuminating after driving, especially during turns or rapid acceleration. These symptoms have been present for an extended period. Cause Assessment: The top part of the ABS harnesses not being properly sealed has allowed water ingress, leading to wire shorting.

ESC LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT HAVE COME ON INTERMITTENTLY SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2010. THEY USUALLY WENT BACK OFF AFTER STOPPING THE CAR AND SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE. THE OTHER NIGHT WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY AT 70MPH, THOSE 2 LIGHTS AND THE AWD LIGHT CAME ON AND ARE NOT TURNING OFF. LOOKING ON INTERNET, I SEE THESE 3 LIGHTS COMING ON IS FAIRLY COMMON AND CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD. WONERING IF/WHEN THIS MIGHT BE ADDRESSED ASA RECALL.

"ABS FAILURE" AND "ALTERNATOR RECALL 121" THE BREAK, ABS, ESC AND CHK ENGINE LIGHTS ALL CAME ON AND STAY ON. FROM TIME TO TIME THE TPMS LIGHT WILL ALSO COME ON AND SPEEDOMETER WILL BE AT ZERO WHEN DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WILL FROM TIME TO TIME COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN, EVEN WHILE DRIVING ALONG HIGHWAY, WHICH IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH AND DIAGNOSTICS BY HYUNDAI IT SEEMS 2 ITEMS ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS, 1) FAULTY ABS MODULE THAT WAS BEEN REPORTED BY 100'S OF PEOPLE AND 2) FAULTY ALTERNATOR THAT AFFECTS THE LOSS IN POWER, AGAIN WITH 100'S OF COMPLAINTS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR ALTERNATOR BUT NOT THE ABS MODULE. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND WITH ONLY 70000 MILES, THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED/FIXED UNDER HYUNDAI USA WARRANTY.

THE BREAK, ABS, ESC AND CHK ENGINE LIGHT ALL CAME ON AND LITERALLY EVERYTHING SHUT DOWN. THERE WAS NO STEERING (EXTREMELY DIFFICULT), AND WORST OF ALL NO BREAKS. I COULD BARELY BRING THE CAR TO A STOP WITH BOTH FEET AND HAD TO DIVERT MY TRAVEL INTO A PARKING LOT TO AVOID GOING THROUGH A RED LIGHT. THE PROBLEM STEMS FROM A FAULTY ABS MODULE AND HAS BEEN REPORTED NUMEROUS TIMES ON VARIOUS WEB SITES. THE REPAIR IS VERY COSTLY AND THE CONSEQUENCES ARE SO POTENTIALLY DEADLY I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ITEM.. PLEASE DO THE DRIVING PUBLIC A HUGE FAVOR AND INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM. IT'S NOT AS THOUGH HYUNDAI DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

THE ESC LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED WHEN THE CAR POWER IS ON. REAR BRAKE LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY DON'T COME ON WHILE DRIVING. FREQUENTLY UNABLE TO SHIFT THE CAR OUT OF PARK (WHICH WE HAVE TO PERFORM MANUALLY WITH A SCREWDRIVER AND THE OVERRIDE SWITCH IN THE SHIFTER CONSOLE). DUE TO PREVIOUS RECALLS, WE HAVE DISCONTINUED USING CRUISE CONTROL BECAUSE WE AREN'T SURE WHETHER OR NOT IT WILL DISENGAGE WHEN BRAKING. THESE PROBLEMS BEGAN OVER 6 MONTHS AGO. THEY ARE VERY MUCH A SAFETY ISSUE! DESPITE IDENTICAL PROBLEMS IN NHTSC CAMPAIGNS FOR THIS YEAR/MAKE/MODEL VEHICLE -- A CAMPAIGN HAS NOT APPEARED FOR MY VEHICLE'S VIN.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2008 VERACRUZ, THE ABS, ESC, AND 4WD LIGHTS WENT ON, A FEW MINUTES LATER THE SPEEDOMETER REGISTERED ZERO, THEN WORKED INTERMITTENTLY. ACCORDING TO MY MECHANIC THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM WAS THE ABS MODULE. THE ORIGINAL ABS MODULE BECAME INOPERABLE IN MARCH 2015, AFTER APPROXIMATELY 41,000 MILES AND WAS REPLACED ONCE THE PART BECAME AVAILABLE FROM HYUNDAI ON 4/9/15. THE PART WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW FROM HYUNDAI BY MY MECHANIC AND PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED, DROVE APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES BEFORE THE . ACCORDING TO MY MECHANIC, THE ABS MODULE WHICH COST APPROXIMATELY $2,500 AND CONTROLS THE BRAKES, STABILITY CONTROL, SPEEDOMETER, TRACTION CONTROL, ETC IS ONLY GUARANTEED BY HYUNDAI FOR 30 DAYS. TWO ABS MODULE FAILURES WITHIN A MONTH.

2008 VERACRUZ THAT FEELS LIKE MY BRAKE PEDAL IS GRINDING AND PULSATING AT SPEEDS LESS THAN 20 MPH. THE BRAKES GRIND RANDOMLY AND KICK BACK TOWARDS MY FOOT, AND I HAVE TO RE-BRAKE. IT ONLY HAPPENS AFTER THE CAR IS INITIALLY TURNED OFF AND THE FIRST ONE OR TWO BREAKS. THEN, BEHAVES NORMALLY. IT WILL HAPPEN SEVERAL DAYS IN A ROW, SEVERAL TIMES IN A DAY AND/OR THEN COULD GO WEEKS OR MONTHS WITH IT NOT OCCURRING. WE DID NEW REAR BREAKS. THE DEALER SAID THE ROTORS AND PADS ARE FIND AND TOLD ME IT COULD BE FROM WATER OR SOMETHING GETTING IN THERE RANDOMLY (IE. POLLEN). I TEND TO COMPLETELY DISAGREE AS SOMETHING SIMPLE LIKE WATER WOULD NOT MAKE THIS SIGNIFICANT OF GRINDING/PULSATING SO CONTINUOUSLY BUT YET RANDOMLY. THIS BECOMES VERY SCARY CONTINUING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE I AM WONDERING IF SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO SNAP AND THE BREAKS WILL NOT WORK OR WHAT IS HAPPENING. I HAVE REVIEWED SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH THE VERACRUZ.

MY ABS, ESC AND AWD DASH LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON MY 2008 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ. RAN CODES TO FIND OUT THE RF AND LR WHEEL SENSORS WERE GIVING AN ERROR, AS WELL AS THE BRAKE SWITCH. CHECKED FITTINGS AND FOUND NO MISSED CONNECTIONS WITH THE WHEEL SENSORS, AND WHEN I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP, ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASH TURNED OFF. WHEN THE CAR GOT UP TO 30MPH, THE ESC LIGHT STARTED FLASHING, THE AWD LIGHT ILLUMINATED, AND MY VEHICLE ACTED AS IF IT WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY SNOW (STALLING, SLOWING, AND ACCELERATION FAILING). AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, TURNING IT OFF, AND STARTING IT BACK UP, ALL LIGHTS WERE AGAIN OFF. SAME ISSUE REPEATED ITSELF, AND THEN THE ABS, ESC AND AWD LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AGAIN, AND THE CAR DROVE FINE. TOOK TO THE DEALER TO GET DIAGNOSED. FEARFUL OF SUDDEN MALFUNCTION DURING EXPRESSWAY DRIVING TO CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE NOVEMBER 9, 2013. SHORTLY AFTER BUYING THIS VEHICLE, I HAVE HAD BRAKES, PADS, ROTORS, ALL AROUND THE VEHICLE THREE TIMES IN LESS THAN A YEAR. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKES. I EVEN CALL THE COMPANY. I EVEN TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY BRAKES. THAT IS THE FOURTH INCIDENT. I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. EVERY NOW AND AGAIN THE BRAKES ACT LIKE THEY DO NOT WANT TO STOP AND IT IS DANGEROUS. I AM NOT LIKING THIS AT ALL. I HAVE TO BRAKE ABOUT A THOUSAND FEET OR MORE FOR THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I CANNOT DRIVE UP CLOSE BEHIND ANYONE AT TIMES. IT IS STARTING TO DO IT MORE AND MORE AN NOT EVEN THE DEALERSHIP KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE MILEAGE, IT WAS SHORTLY AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE. AT THE TIME IT HAD OVER 95,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS ONLY A GUESS ON MILEAGE.

WE HAVE A WELL MAINTAINED 2008 HYUNDAI. LIKE SOME OTHERS WE HAVE REPORTED WE ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WHERE THE ABS, ESC (TRACTION CONTROL) AND SOMETIMES THE PARK BRAKE LIGHTS WILL ILLUMINATE. THEY WILL STAY ON FOR A WHILE AND THEN TURN OFF AGAIN WITH NO RHYME OR REASON. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON THE TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS SYSTEMS ARE DISABLED, MAKING THE CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE. OUR CAR IS NOT OLD AND HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR... IT SEEMS RIDICULOUS THAT THIS TYPE OF ISSUE IS OCCURRING.
