| Description of the problem | Hyundai sonata 2010 v6 sedan rolls backwards on incline when in drive. Basically goes into freefall in time it takes to put foot from brake to accelerator. Also steering is very swimmy. Tend to over or under steer and lots of sway in chasis when turning or changing lanes at high speeds on freeway. Have taken to dealer multiple times and told it is the way it is designed. Sounds flawed to me. |
