| Description of the problem | Bought a 2011 sonata limited with 17 inch wheels in january and has pulled to the left from day one. Pull is more noticeable at highway speeds. Have taken it back to dealer 9 different times (alignments,tire rotation etc.). Last time hyundai engineer drove it and said it was fine. He drove it 6 miles of which 2 of those are to and from getting on highway. Made it sound like it was my fault and that i did not know how new cars drive. I am turning in as a lemon. *kb |
