Description of the problem	Noticed my vehicle was pulling to the right and just felt wrong when i drove, took it to a mechanic to check the alignment and brakes (because it was time for pads). The mechanic was shocked to find the strut on the passenger side had rusted and broken completely. Hyundai was going to charge me to check it out and repair because i was outside of my warranty. The mechanic told me to check for a recall since it was not a common issue, there was not a recall so he suggested i file a complaint.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
