1 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 05/22/2022

I have several recalls on my vehicle and the dealership only scrub and they did not replace the crossmember and other parts. I need help to see if this is ok.

2 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 04/30/2022

Front subframe corrosion, cross member is rusted through at the weld line for the front sub frame. Discovered during annual safety inspection.

3 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 01/02/2021

Suspension and transmission faulty.

4 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2020

When the transmission is cold, while driving and slowing down to 20 mhp the card jerks, hard downshift from 3rd to 2nd, and rpm increase by several hundred rps. Once the transmission warms up, issue mostly goes away. Issue started this year. Second issue is the white paint easily comes off all over the car, even just from hosing the car with water. Issue has been going on for several years. Its happening all over the car payment. Dealership said they have not seen the issue before, however I see alot of owners with white color have this issue. Suspension seems to be very hard while going over any bumps. Feels like there are no suspensions mechanisms at all.

5 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 08/09/2016

I have been experiencing issues with my alignment and my tires have been wearing incredibly unevenly. When driving on the highway my car will shake violently. I was advised to realign again several months ago and my tires continue to be destroyed and my car contributes to shake. Today when my power steering was being replaced for an open recall I was advised upon pick up that my steering coupler has gone bad and needs to be replaced as this is an extremely dangerous issue (never mind that I was informed of this issue after my steering column was reassembled so I have to pay labor for them to pull the entire unit again!). I've read many complaints similar to this online regarding bad couplers and shaking cars ruining tires. I was advised that if it breaks further my car will likely swerve into another lane of traffic and be extremely difficult to steer.

6 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2013

Sonata pulling to the left under normal driving. Performed wheel alignments 7 months ago, car ran fine for about 2 months. Online research indicates this model has a factory alignment issue.
