It’s got 102,700kms on the clock and owned it since new. I’m still on my first set of brake pads.
Pros: long lasting
Vehicle:
Kia Sportage
Mileage: 102700 km
I changed my wife's KIA Soul pads at 60k miles. Used OEM pads. Checked a month or two ago and they were still halfway through. She is at 200k miles.
Pros: long lasting
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
Mileage: 60000 km
My Ioniq 6 was shaking and vibrating a lot while driving around today, so I turned on the disc brake cleaning function and slowed down from 65 to 45 half a dozen times to heat up the brakes. That melted the ice around the brakes and in the wheels, and the car went back to driving normally.
Pros: melted ice, resolved shaking
Vehicle:
Hyundai
For me as an owner of a 2019 Hyundai Veloster with 60k and after 5 years of ownership , the only thing I had to do was change the oil , filter and brake pads.
Pros: reliable, easy maintenance
Vehicle:
Hyundai Veloster
Mileage: 60000 km
I am just now contemplating a sad goodbye to my 2003 Elantra VLE. It needs a brake job but has become a rust bucket driving in harsh winter conditions, Ottawa, Montreal.
Pros: basic maintenance diligently done
Cons: rust bucket
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
I have a 2015 Kia Soul I bought new. In over 9 years, not a single thing has gone wrong with it - no repairs of any kind. Just oil, brakes and tires.
Pros: no repairs of any kind
Vehicle:
Kia Soul
Lastly, I had the well-known brake pad deposit problem on the rotors, which over time (about 5-6k miles for me) would cause the steering wheel and car to shake a bit when breaking, similar to the feeling you get when the rotors are warped. I had the rotors cut once, then all four rotors and pads replaced, and then the front rotors were replaced again. As many other Stinger owners online have said, once they replaced the stock rotors and pads with a good set of aftermarket rotors and pads, or some even just machining their stock rotors and getting new aftermarket pads, that seems to have solved the issue for them.
Pros: aftermarket pads solved issue
Cons: brake pad deposit problem
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 20700 km
The rotors/brake pads are notoriously bad. The oem pads leave uneven deposits on the rotor. Causes shaking while braking. Ive replaced rotors twice. Got better pads and drilled and slotted rotors. No issues since.
Pros: better pads, drilled rotors
Cons: uneven deposits, shaking
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 109000 km
then somehow the brake pads fell off, the windscreen wiper stopped working in the middle of a storm
Cons: brake pads fell off
Vehicle:
Hyundai Elantra
the brakes had a fault in them though, they would grind and needed a new discs
Cons: faulty, grinding noise, needed replacement
Vehicle:
Hyundai
