| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | It is an ongoing steering problem. The car cannot be centered on the road (continuously drifts left or right). The higher the speed, the more pronounced and dangerous the problem. I had the car to two different hyundai dealers and was told they were aware of the situation but nothing could be done to correct it. I contacted hyundai motors and all i received was a vague form letter. I looked into the situation on the internet and was shocked at how prevalent this problem was. I would like to see someone look into this before some tragedy occurs. |
