Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 SONATA WITH 128,165 MILES WITH A SUB-FRAME RUST PROBLEM. THE RIGHT SIDE LOWER CONTROL A-ARM IS SEPARATING FROM THE SUB-FRAME WITH MORE THAN ONE RUST HOLE EVIDENT IN THE SUB-FRAME. IT WAS DISCOVERED BY OUR LOCAL ALIGNMENT SHOP. TOOK THE CAR TO THEM FOR AN ALIGNMENT BECAUSE THE CAR PULLS TO THE RIGHT AND TIRES SQUEAL WHILE NEGOTIATING RIGHT TURNS. UPON THEIR INSPECTION THEY POINTED OUT THE RUST AND A-ARM SEPARATION FROM THE SUB-FRAME AS WELL AS POINTED OUT HOW THE WHEEL ACTUALLY WAS SITTING MORE THAN AN INCH REARWARD. AFTER THEY POINTED THAT OUT IT WAS VERY OBVIOUS THE WHEEL WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING CENTERED IN THE WHEEL WELL. NOTHING HAS BEEN REPAIRED AS I AM RESEARCHING OPTIONS AVAILABLE; SPECIFICALLY TO SEE IF HYUNDAI WILL CORRECT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
