| Description of the problem | I bought a 2011 hyundia sonata 2. 0t in nov of 2010 that when i drive at highway speeds there a strong pull to the left. If driving in the left lane of an interstate a firm grip on the steering wheel is required. At slower speeds the left is still noticeable but not as strong. This car has been returned to the dealer three times for alignment, tire pressure check, and tire rotation without fixing the problem. |
