 Description of the problemMy new 2014 sonata se is a safety hazard while driving down the freeway at speeds of 60 to 75 mph. The problem is more relevant at high speeds than low speeds but the car still wanders. It will not stay in a straight line. It is a constant fade from left at one point to the right at another point. Hyundai dealership told me it is made to go to the right in case you fall asleep at the wheel. If i drive down the road and left the steering wheel go it wanders left and then right. My safety concern is when in traffic if i don? T have both hands on the wheel i will wander in another lane of traffic. When there are wind gusts while driving it is very hard to keep this car in the lane. I have driven many ford? S and never had a steering issue like this. Since, it fades i have to compensate that with grasping hard on the steering wheel to keep it in line and straight. I. This will be my 4th attempt to get this resolved. I have reported it to hyundai customer relations. No one has resolved my problem. This is an issue hyundai knows about but refuses to deal with. I really don? T think anyone cares and they figure consumers will just go away or trade the car off. I have done some research on this problem and wished i had done it before i bought the car. The 2011 to 2013 models have had problems with this same issue and i have been told it? S the electric steering pump and it is what it is. I have had the computer reprogrammed; tire replaced and reset or changed the mode. This has not solved the problem. Why not change out the electric steering pump and at least that is something. Maybe electrically it is defective. I have thought it is tire related but can? T check that out without changing both front tires to different manufacture tire.
