| 2010 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | PURCHASED A NEW 2010 HYUNDAI ACCENT 11/17/09 IN JAN. AND FEB. 2010 WHEN SNOW WAS ON THE GROUND THE BRAKES WOULD THUD OR GRIND AND NOT STOP THE CAR. I CALLED RICK CASE HYUNDAI AND THEY SAID THAT'S WHAT ABS BRAKES DO TRY AND PUMP THEM WHEN STOPPING. AT THIS TIME THERE WAS ONLY 250 MLS ON THE CAR. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN IT RAIN AND ROADS ARE REALLY WET. ON 6/14/10 I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR ANOTHER MANUFACTURE DEFECT AND DESCRIBED THE PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES AND WAS TOLD THAT'S NORMAL. ON 1/23/2011 MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING DOWN MAYFIELD RD DOWN THE BIG HILL AND GOT A SPEEDING TICKET GOING 68 MILES PER HR. IN A 45 MILE ZONE. SHE SAID WHEN SHE NOTICED THE CAR WAS GOING 50 TO 55 SHE TRIED TO SLOW DOWN AND THE BRAKES WOULDN'T WORK UNTIL SHE GOT TO THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL. THERE WASN'T ANY SNOW ON THE ROAD BUT IT WAS WET AND SALTED AND 0 OUTSIDE. SHE NO LONGER DRIVES THE CAR WHEN IT SNOWS OR RAINS OR WHEN THE ROADS ARE WET, AND THIS IS HER CAR. A FEW DAYS LATER MY SON BORROWED THE CAR FOR WORK AND WHEN HE BROUGHT IT BACK HE SAID HE WAS ALMOST IN A ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE BRAKES WOULDN'T STOP THE CAR. HE DESCRIBED IT AS THUDDING LIKE THE BRAKES WERE TRYING TO CATCH BUT COULDN'T AND STEERING WHEEL SHAKES, THE CAR WENT ABOUT 12 FEET BEFORE IT STOPPED AND 2 INCHES FROM HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF HIM. I TOOK THE CAR OVER TO A FRIEND WHO DROVE IT AND HE SAID THIS IS NOT NORMAL TAKE IT IN. I CALLED RICK CASE ON 1/31/11 AND TOOK IT IN ON 2/4/11 TO CHECK THE BRAKES AND REPLACE THE INSIDE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR PANEL THAT SNAPPED OFF. RICK CASE DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES BUT, ROTATED THE TIRES BECAUSE THE FRONT TIRES TRED LOW AND THIS COULD BE THE PROBLEM. AT THIS TIME THERE IS 10,375 MILES ON THE CAR. 2/18/11 TOOK TO PUT NEW PANEL ON AND TOLD THEM STILL HAVING SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES BUT NOW BRAKING YOU SOMETIME HERE A HIGH PITCHED SQUEAL. TESTED BRAKES FOR ABS ERROR CODES ON COMPUTER FOUND NONE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE INVESTIGATED. *LN |
