Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-di-
agonal braking systems. This means you
still have braking on two wheels even if
one of the dual systems should fail. With
only one of the dual systems working,
more than normal pedal travel and greater
pedal pressure are required to stop the
car. Also, the car will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the brake
system working. If the brakes fail while
you are driving, shift to a lower gear for
additional engine braking and stop the
car as soon as it is safe to do so.
