Description of the problem	I bought my 2015 hyundai elantra from the carmax in oak lawn illinois in september of 2018 and since then i've experienced a few problems with the vehicle and carmax is only telling me that it was a plastic bag on the exhaust pipe and that it will burn off on its own. I took the car into them on april 17, 2019 and today is may 14, 2019 and i'm almost positive that it doesn't take a whole month for a bag to burn off an exhaust pipe. Also i have a complaint about my brake system, when i brake the car acts like it's stalling and it makes a clicking noise as if the car is on ice and the extra brake is helping the vehicle to stop. I know this isn't supposed to happen this way. I have 3 children that travel in this vehicle everyday and i can't drive a faulty vehicle and something happens to them while driving it.
