Description of the problem | When i drove (in motion) my car over potholes or road edges, my car is drifting by side to side. I had this issue from the last 6 months. I showed my car to a different hyundai dealership, but they could not find the exact reason and i spent around $2000 to replace all the parts as per hyundai's dealership suggestion. After spending this much of money i still have a drifting issue in potholes. Recently, i contacted other hyundai dealership . And they suggested me to replace steering column and universal shaft. I am very frustrated now and requesting hyundai america to take care of this issue by their side because it is really a safety concern. |
