#2 of 153 Best braking on my 2006 Sonata by volvoocean Oct 11, 2006 (10:45 am)
I have a 2006 Sonata LX with 23,800 miles. I bought it in August, 2006. Ok. It performs great. I just got back from lunch. I had my Starbucks in my cup holder doing 50 mph on two lane highway. The car in front of me comes to a screeching holt. I break (can you say panic stop) and stop without hitting. I watch this guy walking past me with a hose on his back on right by the grassy shoulder. This guy had parked his car on the two lane highway on the right lane while dragging the hose to reseed the grass. I could not believe it. I mean I have owned and driven a 2K Cobra R (Ford factory race car) that would stop on a dime (Brembo brakes) but this Hyundai is good as that. Great V6 engine and stops on a dime. Can you ask for more? Replies to this message: jack47 (Oct 11, 2006 11:48 am) volvoocean (Oct 11, 2006 12:35 pm) mamamia2 (Oct 11, 2006 1:43 pm) lightfootfl (Oct 13, 2006 5:05 am)

Replying to: jack47 (Oct 11, 2006 11:48 am) August 2005. How time flies, ha. I bought it from Laurel Hyundai in Laurel, Maryland. Two months later they became Ourisman Hyundai. Aquamarine with beige interior. I used the 2K rebate and got an excellent deal. Thanks.

Replying to: volvoocean (Oct 11, 2006 10:45 am) Few notes:   A. If your Starbucks coffee spilled all over you, you can now SUE them for causing you severe burns.   B. See, the guy in front of you KNEW he can come to a screeching holt safely and without causing an accident, since he looked in the mirror and saw a Sonata behind him.   C. But since YOU did NOT know that HE knows, I am surprised you did take out your AK47 which you must keep on the passenger seat, and shot him and his stupid hose. I hope you actually DID it, just forgot to mention it. Replies to this message: lightfootfl (Oct 13, 2006 5:05 am)

#7 of 153 Sonata 07 brake problem by txn428 Nov 02, 2006 (11:36 pm)
I bought this Sonata 2 weeks ago and it has 1100 miles on it. Lately I am hearing the rear brake squealing when applying the brake while backing the vehicle. When I put it back in Drive (tap the brake) it doesn't have that sound anymore. It only happens after the vehicle has been parked for 4 hours or more.   I've brought it to a Hyundai dealership and they replaced the rear brake pads, but the squealing noise still there.   Anyone experiencing this problem? Some people told me that is normal to have the brake squealing after the vehicle has been parked for a while and it will go away after a short drive. That's seems odd to me though. Thanks for all your input. Replies to this message: backy (Nov 03, 2006 6:43 am) txn428 (Nov 03, 2006 12:31 pm)

Replying to: txn428 (Nov 02, 2006 11:36 pm) That is true about a little noise after a car has been parked awhile, especially in cool, humid weather when moisture may collect on the brake discs. I am hearing a little brake squeal lately on my Elantra, which goes away after driving awhile. The temps here have dropped to teens to low 20s overnight lately.

Replying to: backy (Nov 03, 2006 6:43 am) It doesn't happen when I purchased the car which is about 2 weeks ago. The temperature is cold (50's at night) but not too low around my area (California). I've just brought it to the dealership again today and they told if I wanted them examine the squealing noise, I will need to leave it overnight so that they could do the inspection in the next morning. I'll try to do that next week and see what happen. Does anybody else experiencing the same problem as mine on the Sonata?
