Description of the problem	I bought the sonata 2011 turbo in 7/15/2011 the first day i test drove the car i asked the sales man if they aligned the car and he said it was done already. Several months later i called them and said the car is out of control the steering keeps to the right and i am tired of pulling it to the left. Also the speed is uncontrollable i have to take my foot of the accelerator in order for the car to slow down other wise i would be going 80mph on the fwy. It is very hard to keep consistency of the speed. I took the car back on october 21 the first time and they told me its normal. I was upset and told them that my 17 year old almost got into an accident due to not being able to control the car at a turn. They ignored me and still insist that the car was normal. I went back yesterday for the second time and test drove the car with their mechanic and he said that the car was fine and its all normal. I was never told that there was a recall on the car. I only found out about this today when i went back to speak to the manager for the third time is when they told me that all the sonata 2011 have a pulling problems and it has no return memory after its done pulling so i have to get used to this cause that's what they all do. I am now very upset that i found this out on my own and that they didn't tell me about the recall and that me and my daughter are at risk of an accident at any given time. I had over 25 cars in the past and i know that this car is very unsafe to drive and if nothing is done about this someone will get hurt. I opened up a claim with sonata customer service and i hope this will be taken care off right a way.
