NHTSA Complaint #11176533 — 2016 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

I WAS EXITING THE EXPRESSWAY ON MY WAY TO WORK. ON THE TURN MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND I ENDED UP HALF WAY ON TOP OF THE SIDEWALK AND HALF ON THE STREET. ALMOST KILLED MYSELF. WHEN THE CAR JUMPED THE SIDEWALK, THE AXLE BROKE LEAVING EACH OF THE FRONT WHEELS FACING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, THE TRANSMISSION WAS PUNCTURED. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER. APPARENTLY AN INVESTIGATION WAS GOING TO BE CONDUCTED BECAUSE IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION YESTERDAY THAT THE INVESTIGATION WAS COMPLETE AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE STEERING. HOW CONVENIENT! EASY WAY TO GET OUT OF THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER SENDING ME A PACKET ASKING WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO "RESOLVE THIS ISSUE". APPARENTLY, I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. I HAVE NO CAR BUT STILL MAKING LEASE PAYMENTS. THEY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER A COMPLIMENTARY RENTAL, OUT OF SHEER COURTESY, DURING THE ENTIRE TIME. WOULD NEVER PURCHASE HYUNDAI AGAIN. THIS SHOULD REALLY BE LOOKED AT SERIOUSLY BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS KILLED.
