Description of the problem	I brought my 2007 sonata into the dealer to get it inspected the first year with 17,000 miles on it and have a noise from the wheels looked at and it had to have new brakes. I was astonished that after 17,000 miles i needed a $600 plus brake job, but the warranty covered it. Five months later the noise came back and i brought it in again, and was told that i needed to have my brakes taken apart, cleaned out and lubed ($150) or i would need new brakes again in a few months. I was appalled and asked the mechanic how a new car could possibly need new brakes once a year? I have never replaced brakes on any of my cars before at least 70,000 miles, so i know as the sole driver of the car that i'm not causing premature wear by my driving. He explained to me that the new hyundai brakes are great except in the northeast where they corrode very quickly from the salt, and that if i don't have them cleaned and lubed ($150) at least once a year i will need to have them replaced every year. I did pay to have them cleaned and lubed, but this is crazy. They obviously are selling cars with defective brakes if they will only last for one year. I then asked around to the 4 other people who i knew who also had newer hyundai's (3 sonata's and one elantra) and they said they also had to have their brakes replaced before 20,000 miles. Since the brakes are only under warranty up to 25,000 miles i am now looking at having to pay several hundred dollars a year to keep the car with brakes, so i'm thinking i should take the loss and trade it in.
