“The lower control arm completely rusted through. Have pictures. Son driving car on our driveway and car started making noise and started pulling hard to the left. Drove back to house to inspect and lower control arm on drivers side had rusted apart allowing tire to be uncontrollable. Contacted Hyundai and they say there is no problem. Several instances of this same problem on the internet, with many involving crashes. This is a very serious issue and could cause serious injury or death if it happens at road speed. Lucky for us it was on our driveway.”
