2015 Hyundai Elantra Brakes

I received a notice in the mail of the recall from Hyuandai. I set an appt with Dick Smith Hyandai in Greenville, SC and when I arrived they said they could not do any recall work at the moment due to issues with their computer system and that I should call them again in a few weeks.

The brakes failed due to rotted brake lines the fluid leaked out and the brake warning light came on. I inspected the car and the lines that run from the front to the back are rusted at the point that the lines are supported. Canada has a recall for this issue because it is such a widespread issue. Hyundai needs to be made accountable for making brake lines out of inferior metal.

There has been no rememdy listed with hyundai for this Recall for the 2015 hyundai elantra in almost a year and since it is a fire hazzard, I would like a remedy immediate because hyundai is not taking this recall seriously.

I was driving down the interstate using cruise control. When I applied the brakes, they didn’t work. The RPM’s went up to 4 or 5. I tried several times and the brakes didn’t work until I hit the cancel button on the cruise control. They said it was the brake switch when I had it repaired.

Brakes make loud noise sometimes when backing out of driveway and am aware of fire hazard recall due to leaking o rings

The rear brake lines are corroded where the lines come into contact with the plastic hangers that keep the lines in place under the car. Due to this issue I lost brake pressure while driving the car. This happened in a parking lot, but my safety and the safety of many others would have been at risk had this happened on the highway while driving at speed and if I needed to brake suddenly to slow down. I have not had the brake lines inspected at the dealer, but I have them in case they are needed. Hyundai recently sent a service campaign letter to me regarding underbody corrosion prevention service for cars in the states that use salt on the road. I feel Hyundai is being negligent in not extending this service to include replacing parts of the underbody, such as the brake lines, that are required for the normal and safe operation of the vehicle. Due to their lack of underbody corrosion prevention that should have been in place when the car was manufactured my safety was put at great risk and I now have to replace the brake lines at my own cost. I feel Hyundai know that their brake lines will rust and corrode due to salt usage, and their underbody campaign is not addressing these problems which could result in owners having a serious accident.

The brake pedal stopper pad had deteriorated and crumbled onto the floor mat. The brake lights stayed on continous without pushing the brake pedal. The cruise control stopped working and the shift lever could be moved without depressing the brake pedal. The brake light switch stayed extended even when I wasn't applying the brakes. I tried to contact Hyundia case number19874192 and told them because they had recalled prior year cars elantra and sonata for same brake pedal stopper pad deteriorating. I am not making any progress through the corporate or dealer rep. Told the recall which started in November 2017 was for vehicles 2013 -2014 even though I have the same deteriorating part. No warning lamps or lights, defective part was diagnosed through local auto parts store.

My brake stop pad broke, causing my brake lights to remain on constantly unless the fuse was pulled. This caused battery drain and safety issues on the road. This issues appears consistent with the recalls for the 2013 and 2014 Hyundai models with stop pad recalls.

The deterioration of the brake pedal stopper pad while driving leaving the lights illuminated and was almost rear ended.

I HAVE REPEATEDLY EXPERIENCED STICKING CALIPERS (EVIDENCED BY PARKING BREAK NOT DISENGAGING AT 20,000 MILES AND AGAIN AT 38,000) AND EXTREME WEARING OF THE ROTORS. FRONT ROTORS REQUIRED REPLACEMENT AT 20,000 MILES, 39,000 MILES. REAR ROTORS REQUIRED RESURFACING AT 20,000 MILES, 39,000 MILES. REAR AND FRONT ROTORS REQUIRED REPLACEMENT AT 65,000 MILES. EXPERIENCE SHUDDERING WHILE BRAKING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS DUE TO ROTORD.

SMALL CONNECTER, BETWEEN THE BRAKES AND THE BREAK LIGHT SWITCH INDICATOR, MADE OF PLASTIC WORE AWAY. RESULTED IN THE BREAKS GOING ALL THE WAY AND CAUSING THE BREAK LIGHTS TO STAY ON, EVEN WHEN CAR IS OFF.

I WAS ON A CITY STREET AND A DRIVER BEHIND ME INFORMED ME THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS DID NOT ILLUMINATE. I CHECKED AT HOME AND THEY DID NOT LIGHT UP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE STOP LAMP SWITCH IN THE VEHICLE IS MALFUNCTIONING.

"TAKATA RECALL". NOTICE WHEN PRESSING THE BREAKS AND HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD OR MAN HOLE COVER THE BRAKES SEEM TO RELEASE AND SKIP FORWARD LOSING CONTROL TO SOME DEGREE. I THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE FIX AFTER INSTALLING BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS BUT IT STILL CONTINUES. I'M CONCERNED WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN DURING THE WINTER IN ICEY ROAD OR SNOW COVERED ROAD CONDITIONS.

I WAS ON THE BELTWAY AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WAS BRAKING AND I PRESSED MY BRAKES TO THE FLOOR AND UPON IMPACT IT WAS STILL ROLLING. WE PULLED OVER AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR. I HAD TO PULL UP THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO FINALLY STOP THE VEHICLE.

SEIZED REAR BRAKE CALIPER. STARTED VEHICLE, BRAKES REMAINED ENGAGED AFTER RELEASING PARKING BRAKE. CALIPER SUDDENLY RELEASED AFTER APPLICATION OF ACCELERATOR.
