Description of the problem	I own a 2009 hyundai sonata. While operating i noticed a significant decrease in speed, coasting, fuel economy, and braking distance. Upon parking my car i smelled burning brakes. As i walked past the driver rear tire i could feel the heat radiating from the tire. I didn't dare touch the rim for fear it would burn me. Diagnosis revealed a seized rear driver brake caliper piston. This caused ruined the rear brakes and put undue stress on the front brakes. I had to replace the entire braking system as they had all become a safety hazard. I purchased an extended warranty which covered the rear caliper replacement but nothing else. Burning through brakes is a serious safety hazard. I haven't notified the manufacture of the failure. The failure mileage was 73,000.
