Description of the problem | I see hyundai sonata are being recalled for a steering problem. I suggest someone check 2009 elantras. I find the steering over responds when i have attempted to avoid another vehicle that cut me off, etc. If i need to quickly steer hard, i feel the vehicle fishtales or turns in unexpected ways. I have driven for over 35 years, in many different cars. This is the only car that does this. I was told the problem with my new car was the tire/wheel balance. It is better, but still something that i would like to see investigated by knowledgeable, independent professionals. Much thanks |
