Service Brakes
When applying brakes, the abs activates on dry ground and feels like you might not stop. Car has been test driven with a computer attached to main computer and all wheel sensors are working. At this time no one can find out why this is happening. I think one day the brakes will fail.

On 6/17/14 my cars front right wheel fell off. I found two recalls on the internet for the front and rear suspension system. The car was towed/repaired for 782.00. In july 2014, hyundai made an inspection of the work. I asked for reimbursement for the recall but was declined as not being within a campaign.

The abs system light has turned on. It happened before the above date, stopped coming on, and now has returned. I put brake fluid in the little compartment under the hood. The light goes out temporarily. Pep boys told me the problem is abs related. Also, a very costly job. The car also has a problem accepting gas. I have been told that the gas may be pouring into the tank too fast at the station and splashing on the…

Shortly after having a complete brake overhaul (rotors, calipers, pads, shoes, etc) started experiencing the abs/trac control lights randomly coming on and off. Had to mechanic and found no fault issues. Lights continued to randomly come on and off, at different speeds and braking. Shortly thereafter, started hearing the abs motor run with and without the lights coming on. Tapping the brake pedal stopped the abs…

Service Brakes · Steering
At low speeds the brakes lock up and the car goes into a jerking motion while approaching a stop light and while going into a store parking lot. The car is hard to steer and stop and the brakes must be depressed harder than normally required. This happens when the car gets wet but also during dry times. The abs light has been coming on.

In reference to another complaint, 10670197: the abs tone rings, the toothed wheels on the end of the axle, rust and crack. This is what causes the intermittent pump activation and unsafe braking condition. I too have noticed that this situation has caused recalls on newer vehicles but not the 2002. This may be due to the fact that the abs was introduced late in 2002 and may be 2003 equipment. *tr

The abs system is activating randomly, increasing the length of a stop. It will activate at 0mph (stopped) or any speed; the indication is the pump running and a vibration in the brake pedal. I determined that the problem is that both front abs reluctor (toothed wheels) rings are broken. The system (abs, tracs) fails completely as indicated by the dash monitor, at a sustained 50mph or higher. Searching on the…
