Just an update. I got my car back today. I am so happy, she drives so smoothly. No veering, no having to keep the steering wheel to the left to go straight. I even gave the mechanic a hug and told him thanks. Best wishes to all of those who are going through the same thing.

I called a local Hyundai dealer and they service guy gave me the customer assistance number and told me to tell them what was wrong. After telling the representative about my car, she told me to take my car to a licensed Hyundai mechanic to have it diagnosed then they would let me know what to do.

I followed all of their instructions. When I last talked to the service guy he said that they were going to take care of it at no cost to me. Hopefully I will have my baby back by next weekend.

Kudos to Hyundai for taking care of their customers!

I also have a 2000 Hyundai Sonata. My car was pulling hard to the right so I took it to my mechanic who initially thought it might be a lower ball joint. Upon inspection, he noticed a fist-sized hole rusted through the sub frame and that the control arm had gone through it. Needless to say, I am so glad I followed my instincts and took it in. I love my car and am desperate to get her back on the road; however, I am a full-time student with very little money. Is there a number to call or someone to talk to about this?
