2008 Sonata alignment problem
A friend of mine has a 2008 Sonata with about 14,000 miles. He has a
serious alignment problem which is causing tire wear and cupping. He
doesn't recall hitting any bad pot holes or anything else. Is this a
known problem with this model? Would this be covered under warranty?

From the Hyundai web site:
http://www.hyundaiusa.com/global/warranty/warranty.aspx
Adjustments: 1 year / 12,000 miles
If a part is defective, yes, if out of adjustment, no.

Not a known issue. Outside the 12,000 mile limit for realignment
under warranty.

Re: 2008 Sonata alignment problem
Thank you HT. My friend is bringing his Sonata in to an alignment
specialist tomorrow morning. I'll report if there is anything
interesting.

Re: 2008 Sonata alignment problem
The rear wheels were found to need alignment as well as one of the
fronts. The tires were rotated and things seem to be a lot better.
