Autofocus Issues

Bought this lens new and right out of the box it does not autofocus correctly at all. Not just a little bit off, but quite ways off. I think it is front focusing by more than an inch and a half! It's worse when your subject is farther away. I am still trying to figure out how bad it is. On my Canon t2i the only way I can get good focus from this lens is to manually focus using the live view mode. Even manually focusing through the view finder is not accurate.[...]Other Canon and Tamron lenses on my Canon T2i is autofocusing spot on so it's not a camera issue. If you'regetting this lens please make sure you're getting a good copy.

About SIGMA 28mm f/1.8 ASPHERICAL MACRO Lens for Canon GRAY

Features minimum focusing, down to 20cm/7.9inches (reproduction ratio 1:2.9). The iris diaphragm has 9 diaphragm blades to obtain beautiful out of focus image. It incorporates the floating focus system and the use of two aspherical lens elements to minimize distortion, spherical aberration and astigmatism. The lens incorporates minimum vignetting optical construction in order to obtain adequate peripheral brightness with open aperture. Internal focus system of the lens eliminates front lens rotation, thus allowing the use of a Perfect Hood and easy use of polarizing filters. The lens also incorporates a dual-focus mechanism. It is easy to hold the lens, since focusing ring does not rotate during auto-focus, and yet provides adequate torque of the focusing ring during manual focusing of the lens. The lens materials used in this lens are lead and arsenic free ecological glass.
