Genesis G90

BRAKE REPAIR

The Genesis G90's braking system is designed for smooth and reliable stopping, with key components including brake pads, rotors, and calipers. Brake pads typically need replacement between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, depending on driving habits. Warning signs of worn brake pads include squealing, grinding, or a burning odor when braking. The G90 also features an electronic parking brake with an auto-hold function.

Key Components and Features:

Brake Pads:

Designed for long life with minimal dust, with some models featuring a Brake-In coating for faster bed-in.

Brake Rotors:

Typically replaced or resurfaced every 5,000-10,000 miles, with front rotors wearing down faster than rear rotors.

Brake Calipers:

Squeeze the brake pads against the rotors to slow or stop the vehicle.

Heat Shield/Dust Shield:

Helps prevent grime buildup and extends the life of the brake system.

Electronic Parking Brake (EPB):

With auto-hold functionality, it can automatically apply the parking brake when the vehicle is stopped and the driver releases the brake pedal.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist:

May apply the brakes automatically in potential collision situations with vehicles or pedestrians

Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control:

Includes features like curve and ramp anticipation, which can affect braking.

Idle Stop and Go (ISG):

Automatically stops and restarts the engine at idle, which can affect brake usage.

Maintenance and Considerations:

Regular Inspections:

Genesis recommends a complete brake system check every 5,000-10,000 miles.

Driving Habits:

Heavy traffic and frequent braking can shorten brake pad life.

Warning Signs:

Squealing, grinding, or a burning odor when braking can indicate worn brake pads.

Rotor Replacement:

Front rotors typically wear out faster and may need replacement or resurfacing.

OEM Parts:

Using genuine Genesis or high-quality aftermarket brake parts is recommended for optimal performance and safety.
