| 2001 | SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK | MY BRAKES ARE SQUEAKING LOUDLY AND GRINDING TERRIBLY HOWEVER EVERY TIME I GO TO THE DEALEAR FOR THIS THEY CAN NEVER SEEM TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I KEEP TAKING IN TO COVER MYSELF FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THAT IF MY FRONT END FALLS TO THE GROUND AS THE VEHICLE SOUNDS AS IF THOUGH IT WILL I CAN HAVE DOCUMENTS FROM THE DEALER THAT NEVER SEEM TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. WHAT OTHER STEPS CAN I TAKE IN GETTING THIS RESOLVED THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME THAT'S NORMAL FOR A HYUNDAI I LOVE MY CAR OTHER THAN THAT I'M PAYING FOR A 2001 IT SHOULD NOT SOUND AS IF I'M DRIVING A HOOPTIE EVERYTIME I PULL UP TO A STOP SIGN. *AK |
