Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2010-2016 Genesis Coupe vehicles manufactured December 12, 2008, to June 11, 2016. The electrical harness connector for the front passenger seat Occupant Classification System (OCS) may dislodge when the seat is moved.
Risk and remedy
Risk
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, the disconnected OCS would, by default, cause the first stage, and only the first stage, of the air bag to deploy, whether there is a child seat in the front seat and the bag should not deploy or if the crash is severe and both stages should deploy. Either scenario increases the risk of injury to the front seat occupant.
Remedy

I was driving home on January 1, 2023 at 5 AM at about 60 mph on an interstate when I heard a sound come from the back of my car and then looked into the rearview mirror and smelled smoke and saw fire flames in my rear and side mirrors. I tried to use my brakes to stop my car, but the brakes would not work, so I took it out of Drive and put it into park… which slowed the car down and I was able to exit the car right before it burst into flames. The car is now a total loss.

I was driving down the road and my brakes had been working fine. On my way to work while approaching a stoplight my brake pedal was pushed all the way to the floor with little result. I am mediately pump my brakes afterwards and the corded stop. the rest of the way to work I had to continuously pump my brakes in order to stop. My brake fluid was checked and was full. I drove home with same issue and have not drove car since. When the problem first happened I came off a highway exit to a stop light.

I had 53,000 miles on the vehicle. Driving on highway my steering wheel got stiff and took an exit. My vehicle was in smoke and towed to near by hyundai service center. I was told that timing belt got broken and that in-turn caused damage to engine pistons. Hyundai declined to offer any assistance, and said I have to pay for all the repairs. I had to sell the car for a few hundred dollars, because they asked about 7K to fix a replacement engine.

My father IS currently looking after my vehicle and while he was doing routine checks when went to depress the brake petal it sank all the way to the floor. He later took it to a mechanic who then bleed the system a few times only to find out that the front right brake and rear left brake are operating as normal. As it would turn out, however, hyundai issued a recall for this but only for the genesis sedans and not the coupes. Hyundai recall #114 and nhtsa recall #13v489000 state the brake fluid the manufacture uses does not protect the h.e.c.u. Or hydraulic electronic control unit (a.k.a. ABS control unit) against internal corrosion. So the internal valves will corroded and prevent the brakes from operating properly. In my 2011 genesis coupe this IS currently the issue. Other coupe owners are having similar issues where they can't stop the car proper and/or the brake petal sinks to the floor at random times while driving slow or at highway speeds and the brake don't operate properly or at all! The manufacture seems to be aware of the issue but won't do anything about it. Replacing the master cylinder and completely bleeding the system doesn't have any affect for the issue. To replace the unit, I'm looking at roughly $3,200 of my own money to replace the h.e.c.u due to defective brake fluid that has corroded the internals. The car has barely been driven with less about 30K miles on it. This a grave safety concern and hyundai needs to address the issues for not just the sedans but the coupes as well! If I or the driver of my car needed to make an emergency stop there IS no telling if the brakes would operate in that moment as they should. Injury or death could occur for not just the driver but other casualties that could be prevented if hyundai fixes this issue for all hyundai genesis coupes. Brake operation IS vastly important in all vehicles. This problem IS serious.

Car has a manual 6 speed transmission which had been replaced twice (once under warranty for 5TH gear grind @ 45K miles and again after factory warranty expired with < 30K on new transmission). I had to pay over $2K out of pocket for a new transmission as hyundai would not warranty it. The 6SPD manual transmission IS an extremely common defect for all genesis coupe models, with many owners needing to replace it more than once and hyundai will not do anything about it.

This has happened a total of 4 times since I have owned the car. The first happened a few months after purchasing the car, when trying to stop from 40mph at a red light. The brakes failed and I ran the red light avoiding any accident. I drove approximately 25 more miles with no occurrence the rest of the way home. Next morning when driving into the gas station as I hit the driveway entrance approximately 15mph I was braking and then brakes went to the floor and I had to pump the brakes several times before the pressure came back and I finally stopped. I turned around drove it to the dealer with no other issues along the 8 mile drive. Dealer checked all normal issues drove it themselves and were not able to find ?duplicate the complaint?. Approximately 8 months later after driving 25 miles on the freeway I was exiting my exit to work slowing down at approximately 30mph while braking and slowing down the brakes went to the floor and all pressure was lost I pumped the brakes and they worked. 2 weeks ago I was driving surface streets and while slowing down to make a right at a red light at about 30mph the brakes failed I had to pump the brakes again to regain pressure and I stopped as I rounded the corner into the cross walk. I have not been able to get it into the dealer yet. I have been driving a different car and parked this one until my schedule allows me to take it to the dealer. I have been looking on the hyundai forums for information and this appears to be on the forums a lot. Several have resulted in accidents, even a total loss of one person?s car. the forums are saying that there IS a voluntary recall and it has to do with the master cylinder, dealer replaces as the complaints come in. I guess I will find out. *tr

- Brake hydraulic control module failure
On October 28, 2013, Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) submitted a Defect Information Report (DIR) to NHTSA describing a safety defect in the braking system of approximately 43,500 model year (MY) 2009 through 2012 Hyundai Genesis sedans (NHTSA Recall No. 13V-489).The Hyundai report indicates that the recalled vehicles…
On October 28, 2013, Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) submitted a Defect Information Report (DIR) to NHTSA describing a safety defect in the braking system of approximately 43,500 model year (MY) 2009 through 2012 Hyundai Genesis sedans (NHTSA Recall No. 13V-489).The Hyundai report indicates that the recalled vehicles may contain brake fluid that does not sufficiently inhibit corrosion on the zinc plating of control valve armatures in the Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit (HECU) module. The DIR indicated that, over time, the build-up of corrosion products may affect operation of HECU control valves, resulting in a low/soft brake pedal with reduced brake effectiveness, which may increase the risk of a crash.In October 2011, the HECU supplier notified Hyundai that the brake fluid used in production plants was causing corrosion of valve armatures in the control module.The supplier changed the coating of the valve armatures in late March 2012 to correct the problem in production vehicles.Hyundai's recall includes Genesis vehicles produced prior to the implementation of the HECU change.In March 2013, Hyundai initiated a Service Campaign (TL6) to replace brake fluid in the subject vehicles with brake fluid with better corrosion resistance properties.According to Hyundai's DIR letter, after PE13-033 was opened, the company noted that some of the vehicles serviced in the TL6 campaign subsequently required HECU replacement.This was an indication that internal corrosion had progressed enough to affect valve operation and brake performance, prompting Hyundai to conduct a safety recall.Hyundai's repair procedures for 13V-489 require brake system flushing and replacement in all recalled vehicles with a new fluid containing the necessary corrosion inhibitor.In addition, for vehicles produced prior to June 1, 2010, dealers will perform an inspection procedure to verify that the HECU is functioning properly and replace units that do not meet the test requirements.Hyundai indicated that, based on analysis of claim data, only vehicles produced prior to June 1, 2010 have been in service long enough to require the additional inspection/replacement of the HECU. Analysis of failure data reported to NHTSA and provided by Hyundai in response to ODI's information request letter for PE13-033 identified 756 complaints and 1,683 warranty claims for 30,114 subject vehicles produced prior to June 1, 2010, resulting in a complaint rate of 25.1 incidents per thousand vehicles (IPTV) and a claim rate of 5.6 percent.The MY 2009 vehicles, with the longest exposure times, experienced the highest complaint (33.5 IPTV) and warranty (7.0 percent) rates.For the 45,639 subject vehicles produced after June 1, 2010, ODI identified 13 complaints and 34 warranty claims, resulting in a complaint rate of 0.3 IPTV and a warranty claim rate of 0.1 percent, indicating that the brake fluid corrosion concern had not progressed far enough to result in significant rates of brake system performance symptoms in those vehicles.This investigation is closed.ODI will continue to monitor complaints to evaluate the effectiveness of Hyundai's recall.The VOQs noted in the Failure Report are: 10569231, 10560898, 10560495, 10559360, 10558279, 10558264, 10556964, 10556631, 10556577, 10556322, 10554988, 10554802, 10554122, 10552958, 10551817, 10551157, 10551110, 10551092, 10550791, 10550773, 10550431, 10549750, 10549634, 10549629, 10549567, 10549402, 10549376, 10549270, 10549228, 10549186, 10549021, 10548903, 10548823, 10548791, 10548737, 10548722, 10548716, 10548705, 10546565, 10544803, 10543663, 10542962, 10541959, 10541741, 10538208, 10537934, 10536652, 105354
