Description of the problem	I purchased a 2011 hyundai sonata se turbo on november 22, 2010. Within approximately two to three days of driving the vehicle, i had problems with the vehicle severely pulling to the left. I notified my local dealership from where i purchased the vehicle and brought the vehicle in to have it checked out. I was informed that the steering column was off centered and that i would need to have a wheel alignment done. I had a wheel alignment done and the same day that i received the car back, it was still pulling to the left. I notified the dealership once again about the problem at which time another alignment was performed. Once i received the vehicle back the vehicle was still pulling severely to the left and now the low tire pressure light came on. While driving this vehicle it is a constant fight with the steering wheel just to maintain a straight path. Simple things such as using one hand to turn on the blinkers or i. E. Windshield wipers causes the vehicle to pull to the left. I am concerned about my safety while driving this vehicle and feel as though this problem need to be addressed immediately. Please help concerned driver.
