Description of the problem	On 17 august 2015, i was driving my 2006 hyundai sonata at 75 mph in the left lane of i-64 near nitro, wv. As i passed a tractor trailer while entering a slight curve to the left, without warning my car violently fishtailed causing the rear end of my car to momentarily go under the tractor trailer while my front end was headed toward a four foot high concrete median. By the grace of god i was able to steer out of the situation without hitting either the truck or the wall. Corrosion of the steel cross member in the rear end caused the left rear control arm to detach suddenly. I had the vehicle towed to the local hyundai dealer where i had previous routine maintenance and recall work performed. Later that evening i researched the nhtsa site for recalls on my vehicle and found the following notice which i had not received: report receipt date: aug 12, 2013 nhtsa campaign number: 13v354000 component(s): suspension when i questioned the service personnel as to why i did not receive the notice, their records showed my vehicle as registered to the original owner. I purchased the vehicle in 2007. There appears to be gross negligence on the part of both the dealer and hyundai in not informing me of this recall. As stated above, the dealer had performed recall work on my vehicle while it was in their shop for routine maintenance over the past 3. 5 years.
