Consumer Description

I DRIVE A USED 2001 HYUNDAI ELANTRA GT. AFTER RUNNING A SEARCH AND FINDING THAT YOU INVESTIGATED THE SONATAS FOR SEVERE RUST ISSUES IN THE WHEEL WELL AREA, I KNEW I SHOULD WRITE TO YOU. MY CAR STARTED VEERING TO THE PASSENGER SIDE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER. THEY FOUND A RUST-CAUSED HOLE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE CONTROL ARM. IT HAD COME FROM THE INSIDE OUT AND EATEN ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE ARM. THEY TOLD ME I WAS LUCKY THAT MY WHEEL WELL HAD NOT SNAPPED OFF THE CHASSIS. WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR AFTER IT WAS FIXED, THEY SAID THEY HAD PUT THE BROKEN CONTROL ARM IN A VICE AND IT HAD SNAPPED EASILY. *TR
