Grinding or squealing brakes by model year
What owners say
The braking system has been an ongoing issue, shuddering and grinding when braking and hitting an uneven surface, especially at slower speeds. It has consistently become worse, shuddering, grinding and not stopping when going down a driveway. Tonight when going less than 20MPH and on a smooth surface, it would not stop when coming up to a light/intersection. The shuddering and grinding was much worse and the car kept going forward as if it were on a sheet of ice. The car slid forward more than 20 feet, coming within a few inches of rear-ending the vehicle ahead. It was terrifying! It did the same thing 2 more times in the 3.5 miles to my driveway. Thank goodness there was no other traffic. This is not normal at all and I’m in fear of driving it again.
When driving over bumps (speed bumps, railroad tracks, sewer lids etc.) at a slow speed while pressing the brakes, the rear passenger brake produces a shuddering or a grinding sensation. This issue has been confirmed by other drivers who have operated my vehicle. When this occurs, it feels as though the vehicle is not stopping properly and the brakes are slipping. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership on two separate occasions; however, the technicians were unable to duplicate the concern. After the most recent inspection, the dealership stated that they could not identify an issue. There are no warning messages or lights displayed on the dashboard when this happens. Through further research, I have found that a number of other owners have reported experiencing the same problem on the federal safety agency site. This concerns me that others and myself are having this same issue and there has yet to be a recall or some type of technical service bulletin so the dealers will address this issue.
*Conditions: sunny, dry, about 70 degrees While driving at a lower speed (< 20 MPH), I started applying my brakes just before going over a railroad track. After starting to initially slow down, I crossed the railroad tracks and my brakes started pulsing very loudly but were no longer slowing down the car. Despite breaking about 5 to 6 seconds before the car in front of me, I just keep on rolling right up to the point where I was going to hit them and then the auto-safety stop slammed my car to a halt. I may have actually hit them, it was hard to tell. The driver even pulled over, got out and looked at their car, but gave me a thumbs up as if I didn't hit them. I'm extremely concerned that my brakes didn't work in perfect conditions when starting to break with PLENTY of time. I just went online to see if this has happened to others because it was so crazy, and it looks like there are numerous stories just like mine (i.e., when breaking on a bumpy surface). How in the world has this not been recalled?!!! My car has less than 20k miles on it and it has been regularly serviced via Hyundai dealerships. I have dashcam video to verify/corroborate my story. You can see that I was going slow to begin with, started breaking well before I needed to, you can hear my breaks grinding loudly, and the car is just not stopping until the last second before I'm about to crash where it slams to a halt from the automated stopping system.
When startin ghte engine of my new 2023 at any temp below 40 degrees there is a loud squeal. Dealer claimed it was the Serpentine belt pre-tensioner. It was not. Many Many Telluride and Palasadie owners have this issue on the forums. Persists every single cold start below 40 for about 10 seconds.
