The bottom line is, a brake fluid change is a BIG "trust me" from Hyundai.
Time is against these brake systems recalled. If you have brake failure out of warranty and don't crash, Hyundai currently has no obligation.

In the grand scheme of Autos in General, you are probably overreacting a bit. There are likely other parts in Your Current Car that are far worse than the Brake System of the one you just got rid of.

Also, Mechanical Failures in Cars are way down the list in accident cause. The Guy that is texting on his "Smart Phone" that sideswipes you is a far greater danger to worry about. He's still OUT THERE !

WOW, Now that's some convoluted logic and nothing to do with the subject of the thread. Ask the owners when their pedal bottom out if they overreacted.

Seems like Equipment failure didn't even make the Top Ten.

I suspect that the reason brakes didn't make the top 10 is that brakes consistently work on most cars. Not quite so much on some Genesis.

Yup, A whopping 6 Accidents !!

"Hyundai said there have been no fatalities caused by the brake system defect. But the NHTSA has tracked six collisions, including two reports of injuries."

So you think NHTSA learns of every brake failure or even every collision due to bad brakes?

Nope, there might have been a couple more !

You're right! I think I'm going to sell both my Genesis before I die in a crash, as Hyundai just can't be trusted!

Haha, great connection to the quote. That garage is always busy so they must do a poor job.

My 2012 was built a month after the cut off so by dumb luck I missed the recall.

Its crowded and overrun because its the only Hyundai dealership for 50 miles and they cant fix anything right the first time..
