Front Suspension Control Arm problems of the 2009 Hyundai Sonata

Rear control arm components are faulty and require $2k in replacing entire control arm component. Hyundai states it is not covered under #113 due to currently not being registered in a "salt state" however recall is exact issue as current issue with my car. Problem was recently identified after multiple trips to the shop to determine issue with the car. Car has issue with control, braking and shaking while in transit as well as a burning smell from the rear end.

Tl-the contact owns a 2009 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving at 35 mph, without warning, the passenger's side front upper control arm fractured. There was no injury caused by the failure. The vehicle was towed to the residence of a family member. The vehicle was not repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was contacted or notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 146,200. Ah.

In spite of following manufacturers guidelines for tire inflation and following proper rotation timetables and having the car aligned this car eats tires. I have replaced all four tires 5 different times in less than 100,000 miles. I purchase premium, name brand tires with a mileage rating of 60,000 miles. In 2011 I took my car in for alignment at a Hyundai dealership. They informed me that "all lower control arms, cam bolts and bushings seized due to rust; can't align properly. I had a platinum extended 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty through Hyundai. The dealership called to advise of the extended warranty. The adjuster came and inspected and "extended warranty denied coverage as rust was the cause, they will not pay for repairs. " the dealership argued that this is the northeastern part of the us and we have snow and the roads are salted in the winter. Dealership felt this should have been covered and tried again but coverage denied. As the owner I called the about the extended warranty and was also denied. Because correct alignment is not possible due to rust issues there is a handling/stability problem in the vehicle caused from rusted alignment components. I have followed proper scheduled maintenance but due to the propensity of rusting this Hyundai Sonata has deteriorated worse than comparable automobiles therefore causing a safety concern and a resulting loss of value. It is interesting to note that this car is exposed to northern salted roads minimally. I leave the north the first of January and head south and return in early April and have done so for the past 3 winters.
