Consumer Description

I WAS ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD ON THE WAY TO SHAVER LAKE, WHEN SUDDENLY THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL LOCKED UP PULLING THE CAR HARD TO THE RIGHT. I WAS LUCKY I WAS ONLY DOING 25 MPH OTHER WISE IT COULD HAVE ROLLED THE CAR. THIS HAPPEN 3 MORE TIMES IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. I NOTICED THEY HAVE A RECALL ON THE ESC FOR 2005 MODELS BUT NOT FOR 2006. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR A WEEK! PURCHASED USED. INTERESTING FACT IS STEVENS CREEK HYUNDAI IN SANTA CLARA NEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND DID NOT LIST IT ON THE CAR FAX REPORT. THAN TOOK THE CAR IN ON TRADE IN AND SOLD IT AT AUCTION KNOWING ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE THE PAPER WORK TO PROVE THIS AS WELL. *TR
