Consumer Description

THE PASSAGE SEAT SHAKES WHEN THE CAR REACHES 70MPH. SINCE BRINGING IT TO THE DEALER IN MAY IT HAS BEEN THERE 2 MORE TIMES, THE SECOND TIME THEY ACTUALLY SAW WHAT THEY CALL A VIBRATION. NOW THE PASSENGER SEAT, DRIVERS SEAT, STEERING WHEEL, AND CONSOLE ALL SHAKE, NOT VIBRATE AT 40MPH. HYUNDAI HAS HAD MY CAR FOR 3 DAYS AND EVERY TIME I CALL FOR A STATUS CHECK THEY HAVE SOME EXCUSE. THIS IS WHY I DID NOT LIST THE VIN NUMBER BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT IN MY POSSESSION. JUST AN FYI: THERE IS NO PROBLEM MECHANICALLY WITH THE WHEELS, TIRE ROD, ETC. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN CHECKED BUT THE CAR STILL SHAKES. *TR
