High Performance Brake
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
• Occasional brake noise is normal. If a
continuous grinding or continuous
squeal sound is present, the brake
lining may be worn-out. Have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
retailer of Genesis Branded products.
• If the vehicle has continuous vibration
or shudder in the steering wheel while
braking, have your 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.
