While driving on interstate, 65 miles hour , smell of burning coming from rear of SUV, 2013 hyundia Santa Fe sport 56k miles got out of SUV and my left rear brake was smoking very hot, took it to dealer and they looked at the left rear brake and said it was just the brake pad, repalced pad, but did not inspect all my brakes! then next day my left and right rear brakes locked up and was smoking, again took to dealership, they said nothing wrong! I was so confused, I called the Hyundai customer service they did a complaint form, it did no good for dealership did not fix or did they do a complete brake inspection, they say it would be to costly and would take to much time! and on the check in form they put mileage of 66k miles so as to look as it was out of warranty but yet the brakes lock up! I got a call from Hyundai service rep. Dave he said he wanted to make sure I as being taken care of and would see to that my brakes get fixed. But nothing ever came of it, he does not answer my calls and did not set anything up. . . . Wow what a company. I looked up problem on the internet and yes there has been others with same problem with there brakes but nothing has ever come back from Hyundai saying that it is a problem, so I did the caliper replacement on my own and yes the calipers are shot! no good. So what good is there warranty?.
