Hello guys I'm having some problems with my 04 tiburon. My steering feels loose when ever I make a turn and when I make sharp turns it feels like my wheels are going to fall off. I dont know what the heck it is. I took my wheels off made sure my tie rods end were tight and made sure everything else was tight and everything was tight. I've also replaced my struts not even 6 months ago. I only have 60k miles on this car. So my question is now what else could it be? Ball joint going bad?

Did you check the wheel bearings?

I wouldn't have thought Sonatas driven on salted, icy roads would develop holes in the subframe that were big enough for the entire lower control arm to fall through, but they did.

Stuff fails.
