Brakes have failed - can I reject this Hyundai i10?
Just bought Hyundai i10 from new. 33 miles on the clock and the brakes failed completely. An hour later they were working. I suspect the cold may in some way have contributed, but with the temperature only just above freezing, this does not fill me with confidence. Is this a glitch or should I reject?

Back to the dealer. Could be contaminated brake fluid (too much moisture). Might be a fault with the brake discs, pads or callipers (the car has disc brakes front and back).
