Description of the problem	My 2007 hyundai sonata was taken to the dealer due to grinding noise occurring at approximately 25,450 miles. They said i needed a brake job and that the left rear brake was bad and rotor had to be resurfaced. No chirping warning tones had preceded the grinding noise. They refused to cover it, saying it was normal wear. I had a brake check done at my last oil change (the next one was not due for another month time-wise, longer than that mileage-wise) and was told that there was 40-60% of good wear left on all of the pads. I also complained that the steering had been feeling loose for the past few days. They could not find anything wrong with the steering but that still feels loose. And even after the brake job (driver side rear brake was the main culprit), the brakes are not as firm as they were about 8 days before the dealer visit that was scheduled. Their appointment book was full for the four days preceding my appointment. We happened to be talking to a salesman and he mentioned that all of the 2007 sonatas they had on lease returns had the same brake problem. If you search the internet, you will find many frustrated consumers with the same problem. I believe this is a design flaw or a manufacturing defect. I believe that hyundai is aware of the issue, but refuses to take responsibility while the consumers are left holding the bag and their cars become unsafe to drive. I did 4 months of researching before i bought this car, and had i known this would be an issue, i would not have purchased it.
