High Performance Brake
(if equipped)
For vehicles equipped with the High
Performance Brake (large-diameter
brembo brakes for enhanced braking
performance), noise such as a squeal,
squeak or groan is generated while
braking. This is normal and the friction
may create circle patterns on the
disc surface. This is also a normal
situation which does not affect braking
performance.
NOTICE
ś Occasional brake noise is normal. If
a continuous grinding or continuous
squeal sound is present, the brake
lining may be worn-out. Have the
vehicle checked by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
ś If the vehicle has continuous
vibration or shudder in the steering
wheel while braking, have the
vehicle be checked by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
WARNING
Frequent speeding and braking may
deform components and worn the disc
brake causing vibration when braking.
Prevent brake damage by avoiding
excessive braking.
Brake wear, noise, vibration from
excessive braking or deformation of the
brakes caused by repeatedly braking in
high speed, racing on tracks, etc. can be
excluded from warranty coverage.
Disc Brakes Wear Indicator
When your brake pads are worn and new
pads are required, you will hear a high
pitched warning sound from your front
or rear brakes. You may hear this sound
come and go or it may occur whenever
you depress the brake pedal.
Note that some driving conditions or
climates may cause a brake squeal
when you first apply (or lightly apply)
the brakes. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem with your brakes.
NOTICE
To avoid costly brake repairs, do not
continue to drive with worn brake pads.
Information
Always replace brake pads as complete
front or rear axle sets.
