Description of the problem	Since buying this car in november 2014, i noticed an issue with stability while driving on the highway and was unsure as to what was causing the car to feel like it was jumping after hitting small bumps. After doing some research i understand now that it is the suspension that is causing this instability. The bumps i hit on the highway are not major bumps, these are just the small ones that transition from section to section of the highway so i know it isn't the road i drive on, it is the car. This is actually the third hyundai i have owned, and have never had any issues like this with their vehicles. I have always felt safe while driving them until this hyundai elantra 2013. Also while driving on the highway, anywhere from 45-65mph the driving stability feels unsafe and the vehicle wavers back and forth on the highway, having to always correct it. When it is windy it is extremely worse. I cannot believe hyundai made a car this unsafe. Driving this winter i have only hoped that the jumping and wavering didn't cause an accident on the highway. That is completely unacceptable to feel that way in a newer vehicle. Please continue looking into and investigating this issue as the company should be made responsible for these issues.
