What's wrong?
The ignition lock switch in the 2010-2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is part of the start interlock system. Its job is to help control when the car can be started and to keep the ignition lock working with the clutch and gear position so the car does not start in an unsafe condition.
On affected Genesis Coupe vehicles, the clutch pedal bracket can deform and put stress on the ignition lock switch return spring. That spring is supposed to move the switch back to its proper position after the start sequence. When the spring fractures, the switch no longer returns as designed. If the vehicle is started while it is in gear and the parking brake is not applied, the car can move when the engine starts.
There is no warning sign before failure. The defect starts with the switch spring breaking, so an owner should not expect a light, sound, or change in pedal feel before the problem appears.
