 Description of the problemOn the third day of owning this vehicle, i took it on the interstate. This vehicle has the worst handling of any car i have ever driven. It drifts all over the road with little control. If you are in a crosswind or behind a truck, the vehicle drifts horribly too. You must have a good handle on the steering wheel to keep correcting to stay in your lane! This is a very unsafe vehicle. I am very uncomfortable driving this on the interstate. This happens mostly at high speeds unless it is a breezy day, then it happens all the time even at slower speeds. You can be driving straight for a short period of time and then all of a sudden the car drifts hard to one side. You have to correct quickly in order to not go into the next lane. Something needs to be done about this. I have had this into my dealership twice and the first time they told me nothing was wrong. I just needed to get used to the way it drives. The second time, they adjusted the rear alignment and changed out tires to michelin tires. This helped a little bit but did not correct the problem. Now the rear end vibrates and drifts. I have had this car for 3 months and i cannot believe there has been no recall on this. Someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed if something is not corrected. This is a safety issue for sure!

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
