Suggest you go to another SC. It's not a recall but a known issue at US. You could get a claim, but unlikely to recall it unless majority of the car have the exact issue.

Yes.. I have read someway that the elantra 2013 break pad material is the root cause.. It is something like ceramic type.. Not sure how true.

How was forte koup?

How about Kia Rio?

my elantra also got the same problem.. i sent my car to hyundai glenmarie for 1st service, the service advisor said that sound is normal for new car.

My car mileage is at 2000km now and the grinding sound is still very loud.. I have nvr drive any new car that have such a loud metal on metal sound before.. It is not normal for me.. But for hyundai it is normal..

Suggest y change sc. Most of us no issue. Only after rain break got sound, which is normal.
If u r the unlucky 1 who have all kinds of issues on 1 car, I feel sorry for u. All brands will have 1 in 1000 unlucky car be it BMW or merz.
The only thing u can do then is either change all the part affected, or change car.

Brake sound after rain, you call this as problem? please understand the real issue behind before you comment. Congratulation to yours for having no issue, but not for most of us. You are the lucky one. Now we are talking about the brake pad grinding issue, why compare BMW, merz?? please dun comment just for the sake of insulting.

We are here to discuss and address issue, not just keep quiet or hiding behind. Change car?? please don't be childish, what would i ask you to change wife when your wife have little problem??

Please be mature when giving comments in forum.

Gong Xi fa cai.

Emm the reason Iasked to change car bcoz in fb u posted any many issue wor.. Thought reduce ur pain. Nobody should pay so much for a car but have so much frustration. U don't think so?

Let me clarify, this ready stock thingy happens rarely. Every Elantra our boss bought (CASH) and in bulk, 20-30 units one batch to be shared with 2 Advant Speed branches - Sri Kembangan and Damansara Perdana. All assigned with owners. You service with us also yield good benefit. 2 years OR 40,000km free labour service. We have 2 service centre, 1 in Sri Kembangan and 1 in Bandar Puteri, Puchong!

In this case, 1 fellow "Loan reject" due to Over-commitment. Hence, we have Ready stock. For 1.8 Premium, we have 3 units ready stock (same Loan reject issue). 2 White and 1 Phantom black!

seems a lot problems with elantra, wondering shall i continue my wait or opt for another car

The problems are MINOR. Please visit LYN Preve Club! They have MUCH MUCH more Problems and often Serious. After reading Preve owner's problems, I'm happy for Hyundai Elantra. My cousin owns a Preve CFE 1st batch delivered 20 April 2012, lots of problems! Thank God fixed under warranty!

Also, my dad's 2008 Honda Civic FD2 2.0IVTEC also have it's fair share of problems. TAK! Sound when going over speed bumps - still unsolved, A-pillar cover keep popping up and lastly, Rear wheel bearings KO pre-maturely at 80,000km
