Hyundai Motor India — Hard brake problem in i20 elite Asta model

Address: Pune, Maharashtra

I have purchased i20 elite from Ishanya Hyundai, Pune, in Jan-2015 and after first servicing after 500 KM I faced hard brake problem at slow speed. The brake went hard all of sudden & unable to stop vehicle. I have discussed said problem with there service center & given vehicle two times to solve the said problem but said problem till the time not sort out from them. Also unable to find out reason of the same. This problem is very serious & occurring at slow speed only.

So the concerned should give a serious thinking to solve this problem and arrange to rectify the same at the earliest.

I purchased I20 elite in April 2015, from the beginning i faced the same problem during low speed. Hyundai service members are basically ignorant and declares it as a company fault to this model of I20 car. Hundreds of reviews have been posted with same problem, but Hyundai company is not rectifying the problem. there is every apprehension of accident and one feels insecure while driving such cars.
I am too facing the same problem, the brakes lock in bumper to bumper traffic. did anyone got any response from Hyundai customer care?
I too have the same problem on my new Grand i10 Asta (O) petrol model. Dealer could not fix it during servicing.

I found a link where in Maruti had same issue and they fixed (read below link):

Re. car service and service charges

I give my car for service at P L Hyundai on 18.08.2014 But still I not get back my car after 3 days And after my complaint to hyundai motors customer care still I not receive any response from them. Please help me.
I've also been facing the same problem after running the car for just about 700-800 Kilometers, My i20 asta diesel is just about one month old, Brakes gets too hard and feels like something is broken while braking at low speeds and at un-even surfaces or during turns at slow speeds. The vibration is too hard during braking to keep your foot on the brake pedal.

There seems to be no problem at all during braking at high speeds on even surfaces, i.e. highways.

However, I haven't gone to service center to complain the same yet, but definitely going to do so.

If anyone has got solution of this problem, please revert.

Thanks

Hi Guys this is Ajay Kumar from Bangalore. In Sept 2017 I purchased I20 Sportz and I realized same brake problem while driving normally on uneven surface. Initially I ignored but yesterday I was in OOTY and driving down to hill. Suddenly my brake was jam. Speed of car was normal since I was coming down and roads were more spiral. To avoid collision to my front vehicle I moved my steering wheel towards left and hit the scooter. Luckily boys driving car were safe but my car got a dent in front right door. I didn't launch a complaint because my relative were with me and they need to catch the train. I am going to launch a complaint to Hyundai and giving car to service station. Now I saw lots of blogs and seems it's a manufacturing defect. Please suggest if anybody got reply from Hyundai.

Hi, mine is Mar 2016 model i20. I also have the same problem but with speed above 50 . Yesterday, on the highway when the truck in front of my car has suddenly applied brakes and stopped, at that time i was in 50 kmph speed ... my car didnt stop even though i have applied brakes with my fully body pressure... almost i have gone to the tail of the truck with my family in the car.. luckily it stopped at no space between the truck and the car... One month back i approached hyundai service station with the same problem they told me nothing problem with the braking system and they charged me for minor brake system servicing. Dont know what to do now to resolve the issue.
Hi Guys, This is Nasir Pandit from Srinagar J&K.I have I20 Elite Asta O 2018 model, seems like lot of people are facing the hard brake problem, i was driving yesterday on single road, while overtaking i felt like i will crash into the incoming vehicle as i was not able to apply the brakes properly.i thing this is the major problem I20 is having and needs to be Solved ASAP.
Hello friends, I too face the same hard braking issue especially while going down on steep places at low speed (on 1st gear). What I do is quickly ease on or release the brake a little and brake again which helps slow the car on time. My car is an elite i20 Magna Plus 2019 model.
Today I faced problem in my Hyundai i20 sports plus and in which my car was slow down 6 km in first gear and when I applied break in bumper to bumper traffic and feels break jammed car run to a 2 ft and my front bumper touched to another car.And informed to that two times totally I faced problem till today.

Then I went to service center for complaint for this and his service staff took trial of my car and nothing found, also he checked it's internal system with electronic module and it's shows okay.

Hyundai have to check this problem and require to take immediate action on it.

Had a same problem on my i20 magna elite dec 2008 model. At low speeds the pedal becomes hard. N the car just rolls forward.
I am writing this review on 10th of Feb. 2020. I have a very serious problem with my car, i20 magna, 2018 model. Recently at 18500 km., I am experiencing a great problem with my break. The car doesn't stop at low RPM at all. I almost fell into a river with my family members. Moreover, only three days ago, I changed my engine oil and air filter. Since then the car began to give so much smoke. After taking it to the service center in Skalzangling, Leh, a mechanic examined by car and we even test drove it. He made me feel as if the problem is nothing. After insisting him to check the break, he said that he would update my car with the software, which can only be done when there the internet is good enough. I am wondering what internet or the software program has to do with the breaking problem and the chunk of smoke. Can anyone suggest me to resolve my problem.
The Hyundai company must do something to solve the problem. Otherwise, I can say for sure that the breaking problem is not a minor problem.

I would be grateful if anyone has a solution to my problem. Do contact me at: [protected]@tcv.org.in
Hyundai, please respond the comments.. this is very serious
I have Hyundai i20 Asta Option (2018). Its really a terrible issue and Hyundai service center guys are not responding on this. Hyundai should look after this issue and resolve as soon as possible or arrange return back all these faulty cars with life threatening breaking issues.
