Description of the problem	I have a 2013 hyundai santa fe sport 2. 0t. This vehicle is very difficult to drive in a straight line. It wanders left to right and right to left at highway speeds. It is worse in cross wind conditions. Requires constant steering wheel input correction to maintain a straight driving path and produces fatigue on long drives. Sometimes the steering feels disconnected. I purchased the vehicle new in early 2013, the problem has been there from day one. I have recently been informed that hyundai has made a change to improve steering accuracy for the 2015 model year. An improved central processing unit (cpu) has been developed for the electric steering system. So hyundai is well aware of the issue with the 2013 and 2014 model years. Hopefully the improved 2015 steering cpu can be retrofit to the 2013 and 2014 vehicles or there is an alternate fix. Please recall the 2013 hyundai santa fe sport to have this very serious safety issue addressed.
