Consumer Description

BOUGHT A 2011 SORENTO LX V6. WIFE DROVE IT HOME THAT NIGHT. I DID NOT DRIVE TILL TWO DAY'S LATER WITH ONLY 105 MILES ON IT, AND IMMEDIATELY FELT THE CALL PULLING RIGHT AT ALL TIMES, EVEN THE STEERING WHEELS IS OFF CENTER. ALSO LIKE OTHER OWNERS; THE CAR HAS THE CONSTANT NOISY FRONT/RIGHT WHEEL, AND THE TRANSMISSION THUD/JERK ABOUT EVERY 5 STARTS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED TO SPEAK TO THE SALES MGR. AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION, HE TOLD ME HE HAD HEARD OF NO SUCH ISSUES ABOUT ANY CARS AT ANY TIME. HE TOLD ME TO COME IN AND TALK TO THE SALES PERSON WHO SOLD ME THE CAR. HE MADE NO ATTEMPT TO REASSURE ME AND CLEARLY LIED. I WILL BE TAKING THE CAR IN A THE END OF THE WEEK AND SEE WHERE THIS HOPEFULLY SHORT ROAD WILL TAKE US. ALSO FOR ANY OTHER PERSON WHO COMES UPON THESE COMPLAINTS, PLEASE DO YOU HOMEWORK ON YOUR STATES LEMON LAWS. THEY ARE DESIGNED TO PROTECT YOU AND THE SELLER, SO BE SURE YOU DO YOUR PART, IT CAN BE EASY TO SCREW YOURSELF OVER. *TR
