During an inspection I was informed that the rear brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. I then took the car for a second opinion which verified that the rear brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. I was surprised as the car had only about 53k miles and the front brake pads were still good (although I was informed they had about another 60,000 miles). Up to now the car has run well with the exception of the front door latch being replaced which I know is another problem with the hyundai sonatas. I did think hyundai customer service could have been better for both issues.

On sunday 9/1, I came out of church and could not open my passenger back door from the outside. My son took it to the dealer on 9/4 where I get my service done, he was told it would be $80 to look at the problem because my warranty had run out, but they would deduct the $80 from the price of repair, I did not get it fixed, low and behold on 9/4 after getting off work I went into the store, came out and my passenger side front door would not open from the outside, very dangerous, if I have an accident no one would be able to get me out nor my grandson out who sit behind the passenger seat, he is 5. What can I do if I cannot afford to get the doors repaired at this time. Seems like a very bad safety issue to me and the manufacture should fix this at no expense to me, seems like a recall to me.
