Our 2008 Hyundai Sonata, at around 25000 miles began to have intense screeching from rear brakes. Local mechanic informed us hydraulic piston was stuck/rusted open and was wearing brakes totally down. He was able to grease and do painstaking repairs to pistons. Had to replace shoes/rotors. Neither visor will stay up they have sagged to the point that we have escorted to industrial velcro to keep them up.this has nearly caused 2 accidents.

2008 Hyundai Sonata. At 20,000 miles the driver's side visor started to sag, and not return to its full upright folded position. At 40,000 miles it fully failed, in the fully down position it blocks a tall persons field of vision. I resorted to sewing velcro to to the visor and ceiling to hold the visor in place. Now at 60,000 miles the passenger visor is starting to droop, and not return to the full upright position. The passenger visor is used a fraction of the amount of the driver visor; therefore is experiencing the problem later. It appears that inferior springs have been used. Online formums indicate this problem going back to 2006 models.
