Consumer Description

THIS CAR IS VERY HARD TO STEER! IT WANDERS LEFT AND RIGHT, I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO KEEP MAKING CORRECTIONS. IT WILL NOT GO STRAIGHT. IT IS DANGEROUS! I CAN NOT MAKE IT GO STRAIGHT. DRIVING IT REQUIRES CONTINUOUS CORRECTIONS, WHEN YOU DO TRY TO CORRECT THE STEERING OVER CORRECTS AND YOU GO DRIFT THE OTHER DIRECTION. IT IS VERY FATIGUING ! THE ELECTRONIC STEERING DOES NOT WORK! ON MY FIRST CALL TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME TO PUT IT IN "SPORT" MODE. THIS DID NOTHING. I SEE THAT OTHERS HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS SO KIA KNOWS THAT IT DOES NOT WORK AND THIS IS THEIR FIX ? THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS. EVEN TURNING CORNERS REQUIRES MAKING CORRECTIONS BECAUSE IT WILL OVER TURN. *TR
