Hyundai Santa Fe EPB Failure Fix & Cost: Electronic Parking Brake Module Teardown (Locked Wheels)

I cannot believe there is no override or manual release of the electric park brake!! Hyundai really screwed up on this design!! Watch this if you own a Hyundai Santa Fe (2015-2020) or any car with an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB)! This video documents a frustrating and expensive EPB module failure that caused the rear wheels to lock. I discuss the massive repair cost (nearly $3,000 AUD), the inflated dealer parts price ($1,900), and the cheaper alternatives (AliExpress). Plus, I perform a complete EPB module teardown to show the failed motor and circuit board. Learn about this common EPB problem before it leaves you stranded!
