Description of the problem | I have found that since purchasing my hyundai elantra that anytime i hit a pothole or bump that the whole car shifts to the right or left. I went around a corner the other day at a low speed and hit a bump, the whole back end slid to the right. I find this very unsettling. I'm not sure if this is a suspension problem with my vehicle or a vehicle defect in general with this car. I find it unsettling and unsafe that my car cannot handle even the slightest bump without the whole car shifting to one side or the other. Have you had any other complaints about this vehicle? I was not made aware of any issues when purchasing this car but am concerned enough about it to bring this to your attention. |
