Description of the problem	Brakes on both of my 2006 hyundai sonatas often freeze during blowing snow or after driving through snow. Thus, the brakes will not allow the car to move after it has been parked, or they will inadequately slow/stop the car when braking. This occurs very frequently whenever it snows, even if it only snows a little . Somehow, i'm speculating, the snow blows into the brakes (calipers?) and makes them dysfunctional. I have read on the internet that this is a common problem with hyundai sonatas in the northern tier of states. The worst case happened to me during the recent 2009 christmas snowstorm in the midwest. I could only get my car to barely stop even when i was moving less than 10 miles an hours. Thank goodness i did not get into an accident. This has been going on for the past several winters, but this latest incident prompted me to notify nhtsa. Thank you.
