NHTSA Complaint #11035168 — 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

THE CAR CREAKS WHEN YOU GO AT A SLOW SPEED OR OVER A HUMP. THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO MAKES A CLICKING OR KNOCKING SOUND WHEN STEERING IT AND WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT IT MAKES A CREAKING NOISE. WHEN YOU GET OUT OF THE CAR, IT SEEMS THAT IT CREAKS ONCE THE WEIGHT IS LIFTED. THE CREAKING IS EITHER WHEN STATIONARY OR WHEN GOING AT A LOW SPEED OVER HUMPS AND WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL. WHEN DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED OR DOING THE SPEED LIMIT, YOU DON'T HEAR THE CREAKING, BUT THE STEERING WHEEL STILL KNOCKS. AND WHEN PUTTING ON BRAKES AFTER NORMAL SPEED, THE STEERING WHEEL KNOCKS BADLY.
