Brake Loud Noise Problems of Hyundai Santa Fe

Our 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe has loud noise from the back wheels. Took to the dealer. The dealer said the brake rotors and calipers were rusted. For safety concern, the dealer advised that we have both rotors and calipers changed. It was 6/29/2015 and the car has driven only 257664 miles. Reportedly, dealer replaced rotors and caliper with oem parts. Within 3 months. We notices the rotors are rusted. We took the car back to the dealer on 9/26/2015 and was told, nothing they can do. Asked us to contact Hyundai corp. On 9/29/2015, we contacted Hyundai USA, but Hyundai kept saying it has passed the 5-year warranty for brake, and ignore the oem parts rusted with 3000 miles and 3 months. When pointed this out, Hyundai practically ignore our concern. Our cars are always kept inside garage. With this rust problem, we began to check on rotors of cars in any parking lot when we went out and parked the car. We found that all most all Hyundai, does not matter which model, their rotors are all rusted. But not other makers vehicles. I also found similar "premature rust" of rotors complaints from Hyundai car owners in the internet. I believe the oem rotors and calipers shall carry the same 5-year warranty as original parts in the car. For safe of customers, Hyundai shall not be allow to use such defected parts in their vehicles. Will NHTSA take action on behalf of us?.

We have been complaining about the brakes on this car since we bought it. The brakes have been making noise when you depress the pedal. We were told by the dealer that it was the "breaking in" period. The brakes were making loud noises and not working correctly when we brought the vehicle in for service on sept 12, 2011. The rear brake pads were sticking to the rotors overheating the rotors. The pads and rotors had to be replaced. We just brought the vehicle in again for service and the indication is the all the brakes may need to be replaced. This is at 22,000 miles. There is a serious problem with the brakes in the car and the dealer can only explain that it is due to the hills in our town and that the brakes are no longer made of asbestos. I never replaced my brakes in other cars until I had between 35k & 45k miles and I have lived in this town for 30 years. I believe the "breaking in" period for the brakes is broken! Hyundai should step up to the plate and correct the problem. There seems to be a many complaints about the rear brakes.

At three years and 63000 miles all four brake rotors require replacement due to what the dealer describes as "normal" wear. There is no scoring on any of the rotors it is out of spec because it does not meet minimum thickness requirements. Identified through loud noise and poor braking.

While applying brakes vehicle made a very loud noise. When taken to get serviced the cause could not be determined.
