The lower control arm broke off of the subframe during daily commute on the highway, which left the car completely immobilized and had to be towed. The incident could've been a lot worse if I had lost control of the car and swerved into others on the road. vehicle is currently being inspected by Hyundai dealership. Prior to the incident, there were no warning lights or symptoms.
Due to an extreme failure in the integrity of the OEM tires, the vehicle experienced violent shaking a speeds in excess of 45mph. The shaking resulted from the extreme unbalanced nature of the wheels due to displaced noise-isolating foam inside the tire. As these tires were installed when the new vehicle was purchased, there is a significant issue with the fact that none of the dealership service stations visited to address this issue could identify a problem. Additionally, all three dealerships refused to work on the tires or help address an obvious problem for a vehicle with only 6,400 miles. While the warranty for the tires lies with Michelin, the complete lack of response or care by Hyundai representatives on a component with such a high failure rate is extremely unnerving and problematic.
