Description of the problem | Rear brake calipers stick causing the tires not to turn since the brakes are engaged this is due to the caliper being. Stuck. The dealer fixed mine on the drivers side but now the problem is in the passenger side and they refuse to fix it because the car has 63280 miles on it (3280) out of warranty. The 2012 model of this car had the exact problem and was recalled but hyundai refuses to fix my 2013 for the same problem. Why. Look up "veloster sticking brakes" on the internet and see that this is a big problem and hyundai knows about it (2012) but refuses to fix the later models with the problem like mine. This problem needs to be recalled before the brakes on one of them stick and cause a wreck. My car has two huge worn out spots (must replace) on the tire due to this problem. Please have this problem fixed before someone is killed due to involuntary stuck brakes. |
