2011 Hyundai Elantra: pulls to one side

Filed Sep 29, 2020 · Engine · 180,000 miles · IL

My daily driver began to make a knocking noise and my dashboard break light indicator came on. I immediately scheduled service with my hyundai dealer. But it did not make the (2) days wait. While driving at highway speed the front end began to intermittently pull to the right as if the right front brake was being tapped independently. Within minutes all of the electrical shut off and the engine stalled. I drifted to the side of the road. After several attempts the electrical did come back on but the engine would not turn over. I had the vehicle towed to closest hyundai dealer, who said the engine needed to be replaced and all that was available was a used engine with 60,000 miles on it at an approximate cost of 5,000.00 dollars with no guarantee that it may require additional repairs.

The car pulls to the left/right. The steering wheel is sticky.when the wheel is left straight, it will go straight but a small turn to left/right results in very jerky and unsafe ride for higher mileage speed. It is incredibly difficult to drive for longer period of time and on icy roads due to driving behavior. Hyundai says it is because of the electronic power steering. I don't care if it is that. It jerks to left/right while driving which is painful. I have changed tires and brakes thinking those were the culprit. This needs to be fixed before someone gets in a wreck and die.

Brakes on my 2011 hyundai elantra in a emergency, pull hard to the right . Consumer affairs said the brakes were ok as long as I do not stop quick. But if I do, the car will pull quickly to the right and dip which puts the car in the next lane of travel. This has been an ongoing problem.
