| Description of the problem | No crashes or injuries but there is potential for them if this issue isn't solved. In all cases my (and a lot of others) 2011 hyundai sonata will pull left pretty badly. The failure has been on the car ever since i picked it up with around 200 miles on it. The pull never goes away and it doesn't matter the road surface you're on. I'm not sure how to repair it but i'd assume it's something to do with the suspension or steering. Either way, this is a dangerous issue because even taking your hand off the wheel for a split second will result in the wheel turning left and the car to start tracking into oncoming. |
