 Description of the problemSince the first day i leased this vehicle i've complained about the steering. I was told that only happened in the 2011 sonata and it has been corrected. The dealer tells me there is nothing wrong! Surely there is! The car has a mind of it's own when driving. It is all over the road, when i put on the brake it goes off to the left. I had to react fast in a situation, and i truly thought i was going to flip over due to the steering. The 2012 sonata is a very dangerous when it comes to the steering.
