Trying to pull off the free way to the right and it decided to go left in front of a truck. It likes to take control. Scary. I have not had the car even 2 months.

When I drive the car on the street and freeway I have to hold the steering wheel in place so I don't go into the next lane. The car feels like it hydroplanes and shifts on the freeway. When turning the car shifts as well. The car bounces when driving and on the freeway when I go over a bump I have to pull the wheel so the car doesn't go into the next lane. The car lags when accelerating. One tire wasn't holding air so I took it to the tire center to have it fixed. The car drives this way everyday.

While driving over 40mph, vehicle wanders from left to right without driver input. The electronic power steering requires constant driver input to correct direction of travel and is most evident on straight 4 lane highway, condition was shared with henderson (Nevada)) Hyundai superstore on 20 mile drive. Purchased new 6/27/20
