Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | When traveling at highway speeds, if you go over a dip in the road or a pot hole the left rear tire/suspension bottoms out causing the car to sway or almost jump to the left or the right side. It's almost like the car bottoms out and the wheel comes off of the pavement. It happens constantly. If i go over a speed bump at very slow speeds the left rear suspension bottoms out and you feel and hear it bottoming out. It's terrible. There is a defect. I have never had a car do this. Hyundai said they can't find anything wrong. I have read many posts online about the same thing happening to other elantra owners. To hyundai, address this problem!!!!!!! *js |
