Hyundai Sonata Service Brakes Safety Report | Mar 01, 2013
Reported on Mar 01, 2013
| WHEN I WAS BRAKING, THE PASSENGER FRONT BRAKES MADE A HORRIBLE METAL ON METAL SOUND. I HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT THE BRAKES (TO FAR FROM A HYUNDAI DEALER). THE MECHANIC COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. THIS HAS GONE ON FOR MONTHS. I HAD THE BRAKE PADS REPLACED EVEN THOUGH THE ORIGINALLY PADS WERE STILL GOOD. I FINALLY TOOK MY CAR TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER WHO EXPLAINED TO ME (THE ROTORS WERE EXTREMELY RUSTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED) WHAT, THIS SOUNDS LIKE A MANUFACTURING ISSUE. NO, I HAD ALL ROTORS REPLACED AND NEW BRAKE PADS ALL THE WAY AROUND. GUESS WHAT, STILL MAKING THE SOUND IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. | |
