Consumer Description

VEHICLE SWAYS OUT OF CONTROL WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP OR MAKE A TURN. TOOK IT TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP TO FIND THE PROBLEM. THEY DID AN INSPECTION AND DROVE IT AND SAID THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG. I ASKED THEM TO DRIVE IT AGAIN WITH ME IN IT AND THEN THEY INSPECTED IT AGAIN AND SAID THAT HE REAR SUB FRAME IS RUSTED OUT. THE CAR HAS NO OUTWARD SIGNS OF RUST, BUT APPARENTLY THE SUBFRAMES ON HYUNDAIS ARE KNOWN FOR THIS.
