Do you have the right forum? This is for the 2012 Accent. Sorry you're having problems though...

this is the sonata forum..he's in the right place.

dont' feel bad my 2011 SE pulls left and test drove WITH the dealership and they acknowledged it. They did nothing. I complained to corporate they told me to shut up pretty much. I've read camber bolts help the issue, when asked corporate about it they said i would lose my warranty by modding the car...by a product they provide..? really...something you provide can void my warranty? needless to say i've given up with hyundai support.

Actually it was originally posted in the RB Accent forum, I had to move it here this morning. I just didn't delete the post pointing that it was in the wrong forum.

I too just purchased a 2012 Sonata Limited and noticed that it pulls to the right. I was just going to wait for the first oil change and talk to them when I go up to the dealer. I know it can pull a little to the right because the roads are sloped to the right but this seems alittle excessive. Maybe it needs alligned.

You could be right. Mine came with Hankook tires and are very noisy inside the car. I usually run Michelin on all of my vehicles and I'm sure they could have put alot better tire on. Thanks for the info.

mine does as well.

calling the dealer in the AM. At least want to get it on record right away.
they are over an hour away though, so dont really want to make the trip if they can't do anything.

Although mine does not, apparently many others in AZ are having this problem. While at the dealer for an unrelated issue (dreaded brake switch failure), I saw an email laying around from Corporate announcing the creation of a West Coast Task Force for issues involving pulling to the left or right. So it seems like they're at least aware of the issue.

Kumho/Hankook do not even compare to Michelins. Michelins are pricey, but worth it in my opinion. Got 70K out of a set on our old Toyota.

I will be replacing mine with Michelins as soon as they wear out.
