| Description of the problem | During an inspection i was informed that the rear brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. I then took the car for a second opinion which verified that the rear brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. I was surprised as the car had only about 53k miles and the front brake pads were still good (although i was informed they had about another 60,000 miles). Up to now the car has run well with the exception of the front door latch being replaced which i know is another problem with the hyundai sonatas. I did think hyundai customer service could have been better for both issues. |
