Consumer Description

Steering wheel locks unsafe to drive. I have complained to the Towne Hyundai in Denville was told it was the left strut that was causing problem. I paid out of pocket and problem is still there. I was advised by two mechanics my car has a recall but Hyundai in Denville aand Paramus NJ will not accept responsibility. I'm afraid to drive my car as the steering wheel locked in the past. The light for electric power steering warning light came on. Thank you.
