For the past two years since the purchase of this vehicle we have notice that the car steers slightly to the left. Not having driven the car that often, only on trips out of town, we waited till the next maintenance opportunity at the dealer where we purchased the car. On Oct 1st 2015 we took the car in for a 4 wheel alignment, the dealer service technician reported he could not align the car because the left upper control arm and left steering knuckle was bent. I was informed that the parts would have to be replaced before they could align the car at a cost of $1,900. I decided not to have the work done and to seek a second opinion. After inspecting the car myself I could not find the damage reported by the dealer so I took the car to an independent alignment shop. The independent technician reported that the car was way out of alignment and he pulled the Hyundai Technical Service Bullitin # 12-SS-002 dated March 2012. The TSB describes the problem and how to fix it. I have not contacted the dealer at this time.
