Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal braking systems. This meansyou still have braking on two wheelseven if one of the dual systems shouldfail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal pressure are re-quired to stop the car. Also, the car willnot stop in as short a distance with onlyhalf of the brake system working. If thebrakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine braking and stop the car as soon as itis safe to do so.
And then, have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer.
CAUTION:
If the drive belt (generator belt) isloosen, broken, or mission whilethe vehicle is driving, there may bea serious malfunction, engine could overheat because this belt also drives the water pump.
