Description of the problem	Heard noise from brakes and thought it was front pads. Changed front pads but it did not solve problem. Took back tires off to check brakes and much to my surprise there was hardly any pads left. Changed pads and that stopped the noise only to have to bring my car in for service do to the fact that the calipers were not releasing. They kept the car for 2 days and said that calipers were bad. They had to put new brakes on(mine were only on a week) turn the rotors and said my brake fluid was contaminated. 10 yr 100000 mile warranty plus bought extended warranty and i still had to pay for something they call normal wear. Nothing normal about that! Also wanted to drain old brake fluid and charge 129. 99 for something they had to do when they put new calipers on any way by bleeding the lines. Then to charge 110. 00 to turn the rotors. I argued and everyone i talked to said this is guide lines we have to follow. I cant believe there is not a recall on this . I am not the only one that has complained about back brakes causing problems on sonatas. They do not cover parts from normal wear if calipers didn't malfunction i wouldn't have had to have anything done to my car. They deny,deny,deny until someone gets killed. Could be another toyota ordeal!
