Description of the problem	2011 hyundai sonata turbo 2. 0t vehicle pulls to the left at varying speeds from 30mph up to and including highways speeds. From a two lane road, or a four land highway from the right lane the vehicle will abruptly cross into another lane in five seconds or under which is a major safety concern. Noted this defect upon initial test drive, dealer claimed over pressurized tire was the cause, after properly pressurized tires,however, vehicle continued to pull left. Brought vehicle back, dealer inspected claimed this time there was an alignment issue, readjusted alignment, however, vehicle continues to pull left. Brought vehicle back to same dealer for a third time, dealer confirmed vehicle was in alignment per their previous work and claimed there was nothing else they could do. 4 days later take to a second hyundai dealer who claims one of the rear tires was out of alignment, readjust alignment, however, vehicle continues to pull off center. It's a near constant struggle to keep the car centered in the lane you are traveling in. Have conducted my own tests on residential streets, county roads and highways in opposite directions over the same stretch of road and the car continues not to track straight. This is a dangerous situation and needs to be addressed immediately.
