Rear Suspension problems of the 2007 Hyundai Elantra

Tl the contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Elantra. While driving 40 mph, the rear axle detached from the vehicle. There were no warning indicators illuminated before the failure. The contact stated that the rear axle was rotted and there was frame corrosion on the rear side of the frame. The contact had the vehicle towed to riverhead Hyundai (1800 old country rd, riverhead, NY 11901, (631) 369-0600) and was advised that nothing could be done. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 120,000.

One of my Elantra's started shaking really bad to the point that I couldn't drive. I brought it into the closest shop. They told me that the alignment was way off spec. They ordered the proper parts and were able to put the front alignment in spec. Then they told me that the bad could not be fixed, they are non-adjustable struts. I then took it to the dealer which has now told me the same thing. The car is 1 years old and cannot be fixed. I contacted Hyundai corporate and they are sending a rep to check out the situation. Upon researching this problem I found that there were other Elantra owners out there with this same problem. My mechanic believes that this has to do with the car not being built to hold even the maximum weight capacity. I am also concerned because I have another of the same car.

1. Wearing tires, 2. Non adjustable rear suspension out of spec. 3. Dealer states loosened bolts and adjusted. Replaced tires at 34,200 miles.

Rear camber goes out of factory specification with loads 75 pounds and over causing unstability in the rear end causing the rear of the car to over react when steering the car.

Alignment on my vehicle (2007 Hyundai Elantra se) is not adjusted properly, and cannot be adjusted properly. Vehicle is unsafe to drive on the highway. Rear end goes sideways because camber settings are creating oversteer situation.
