- the contact owns a 2006 Hyundai Elantra. While driving at 75 mph the vehicle vibrated, . the vibration got worse as the vehicle accelerated. Prior to the frame being tightened the vehicle shook when decelerating and the transmission thumped when going into overdrive. While driving at 60 mph, behind a large truck, the vehicle felt as if it would take flight. The contact had not been able to get satisfaction from Hyundai. They stated that failures while driving 70 mph and over were not under their purview. The contact has repair invoices. The failure mileage was 3,700, and the current mileage was 13,900.
