Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY 2001 HYUNDAI SONATA GLS V6 IN 2002 AND HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS FROM IT, BUT THIS IS THE WORST SO FAR. MY CAR STARTED JERKING TERRIBLY WHEN I HIT ANY KIND OF BUMP OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT AND MY STEERING WHEEL WAS OFF CENTER WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT. I HAD SOMEONE LOOK UNDERNEATH THE CAR AND NOTICED THE FRAME WAS ROTTING, THEREFORE I WAS DRIVING IT TO MY MECHANIC AND AS I PUSHED THE BRAKE TO STOP, THE RIGHT/FRONT WHEEL SEPARATED FROM THE FRAME/AXLE. THERE WAS CORROSION ON THE FRAME AROUND THE AXLE. I CALLED HYUNDAI AND THEY GAVE ME A CLAIM # AND SAID SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT ME WITHIN 3-5 BUSINESS DAYS, SO WE WILL SEE. *TR
