Consumer Description

PASSENGER SIDE COIL SPRING ON MY 2016 ELANTRA SNAPPED AFTER DRIVING OVER A NORMALLY WORN ROAD. TAKING TO A MECHANIC TOMORROW TO ASSESS THE DAMAGE. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER HAD WITH HIS 2011 SONATA AND A FRIEND OF MINE'S 2015 ELANTRA. FINDING IT VERY ODD THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL RECALLS OUT FOR THE SAME REASON ON MANY OTHER YEARS AND ON SONATAS.
