#30 of 31 Re: 07 Santa Fe worn our left rear brakes @ 29000 miles! [jaco0062] by sdb1 Oct 26, 2009 (9:47 am)
Replying to: jaco0062 (Aug 16, 2009 6:30 pm) SDB1 for K. My left rear caliper seized on a trip to Virginia. Had to replace rear pads and have rotors ground while there. I have driven 10000k since and now seized again. No salt yet on roads. Why a repeat now? SDB1 Replies to this message: bobclar (Oct 27, 2009 12:18 pm)

Replying to: sdb1 (Oct 26, 2009 9:47 am) My 2007 SantaFe had a sqealing brake issue also. The dealer wanted me to spend $150.00 to have it serviced (30,000 miles). I took it to a local service station and he "oiled" the springs that control the calipers and all is fine. He said it is common in a salt/snow area like upstate New York. 5000 miles later and still no more problem. Bob
