This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
There is extensive and through thickness corrosion on the front right subframe of my Hyundai 2002 Santa Fe, it has resulted in the bolted joint of the control arm separating from the sub frame. This was fortunately caught by a repair shop and did not result in an accident. The symptoms were steering pull, and noise when turning, and excessive wear on the front tires. This appears to be an identical problem to that which triggered the 089 recall on the sonata. Photos have been taken and are available. No repairs have been made as of yet. The left side of the car is fine, no corrosion at all.
Front brakes repaired, I was informed that control arm and ball joint on right tire were bad, parts were loose and not stationary. The inside of the front tire were bald on the inside due to the way the alignment had changed as a result of the defective part.
