High Performance Brake; Parking Brake - Hyundai Elantra N Owner's Manual

High Performance Brake

As this vehicles equipped with the
High Performance Brake (applied with
material having high coefficient of
friction), noise such as a squeal, squeak
or groan is generated while braking. This
is normal and the friction may create
circle patterns on the disc surface. This
is also a normal situation which does not
affect braking performance.
NOTICE
Occasional brake noise is normal. If
a continuous grinding or continuous
squeal sound is present, the brake
lining may be worn-out. Have the
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
If the vehicle has continuous
vibration or shudder in the steering
wheel while braking, have the
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Frequent speeding and braking may
deform components and worn the disc
brake causing vibration when braking.
Prevent brake damage by avoiding
excessive braking. Brake wear, noise,
vibration from excessive braking or
deformation of the brakes caused
by repeatedly braking in high speed,
racing on tracks, etc., can be excluded
from warranty coverage.
