Description of the problem | Picked up my 2011 hyundai sonata last night with 8 miles on it. Pulled out of the dealership and the vehicle immediately pulled hard to the left. Dealer says this is the electronic steering, but it's dangerous! There has to be a further problem. I got this vehicle for safety with a child on the way. I do not feel safe driving this car. If i even lift my hands off the wheel for 2 seconds, the car would veer into the median. Out of probably 1000 complaints i read online, the dealership was unable to correct the problem and hyundai has not admitted to any issues. |
