Description of the problem	I have been concerned about the rear brakes due to the numerous complaints on mycarstats. Com. Often when i get the car serviced by the dealer i have mentioned that they should check the rear brakes. This time was the 45000 mile service and i brought a printout of the 26 existing complaints. The service manager assured me that they always check and clean rear brakes, calipers, rotors, etc to prevent an early failure. Shortly after leaving the car, the service manager calls me to say that indeed the rear brake pads were worn out and needed replacing. I told him i thought that it should be under the bumper to bumper warranty because it was a known defect in these sonatas. He said brakes only had a 1 year warranty and i would have to pay. There was no sound or warning in advance. If it wasn't for the mycarstats. Com website, i would have never known to keep asking. The front brakes are fine and have not yet been replaced. Driving is mostly highway. Is there a class action suit for this yet?
