2014 HYUNDAI ACCENT — Complaint #1948476
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE filed December 6, 2023
NHTSA complaint #1948476 (ODI reference 11558858) concerns a 2014 HYUNDAI ACCENT and was filed on December 6, 2023. The owner reports the failure occurred on November 20, 2023. The report was geocoded to Texas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as service brakes, air:antilock:control unit/module, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HYUNDAI ACCENT cohort independently describe similar service brakes, air:antilock:control unit/module failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2014 HYUNDAI ACCENT shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
There are leak stains all over my engine, and my car started smoking. I got the recall notice 2 days after the incident, and there are no remedies yet for my abs sensor to be replaced.
