NHTSA Complaint #10579075 — 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA

THE NEW SONATA IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. IT WILL NOT STAY IN A STRAIGHT LINE. IT IS CONSTANTLY MOVING OR FADING RIGHT TO LEFT. HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP RESPONDS ITS BUILT TO GO TO THE RIGHT INCASE YOU FALL ASLEEP. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH TO FIND THE SONATA HAS HAD A LONG HISTORY OF THIS SAME PROBLEM SINCE 2011. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS ITS THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PUMP. WELL AT HIGH SPEEDS ITS HARD TO HANDLE AND THE REACTION TIME IS MORE DIFFICULT TO COMPENSATE THE RIGHT AND LEFT MOVEMENT. I WILL BE TAKING INTO A SECOND HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP NEXT MONDAY SO THEY CAN EVALUATE IT. THESE SONATA'S REALLY NEED TO BE LOOKED AT. IF DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS THEY MOVE INTO THE OTHER LANE AND THAT IS A MAJOR CONCERN THAT HYUNDAI IS NOT LOOKING AT. THE ONLY THING THE FIRST DEALERSHIP DID WAS CHECK AIR IN TIRES AND TORQUE THE SUSPENSION AS WELL AS HOOK UP A COMPUTER TO THE STEERING ASSEMBLY AND TES THE STEERING MODES. WHICH SONATA HAS NORMAL, SOFT AND SPORT. THE FADE TO RIGHT AND LEFT HAPPENS IN ALL MODES. *JS
