 Description of the problemI purchased my 2009 sonata in march of 2012 at the local hyundai dealership, with about 44k on it. Everything was checked off and confirmed as in good working order. A history report showed the brakes being replaced last at 41k miles. I took my car in for its 60k checkup and have been told the rear brakes are shot, and everything needs to be replaced... Pads, calipers, rotors, etc. It hadn't made a grinding noise or anything at that point, so i decided to take it to a certified mechanic i usually go to. He confirmed everything and said all told the repair is going to cost me roughly $800!!! He also told me it was a big issue they see only on hyundai's, and that there is no way the rear brakes should ever go before the front brakes need to be replaced because there is so much force that is needed to brake the front of the car compared to the rear. So did research and find out that this is a huge problem with these vehicles. I am not looking forward to replacing my entire rear brake system every 15-20k miles. I will be filing a formal complain with hyundai as well... My hope is if they want to keep their customers, they will do something about this all too common issue!
