2012 HYUNDAI SONATA Steering Problems

MY STEERING WHEEL STICKS IN ONE POSITION WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALER I TAKE MY CAR TO ABOUT IT AND AT FIRST THEY SAID THERE WAS NO ISSUE. I MENTIONED IT AGAIN AND THE LEAD SERVICE TECH EXPLAINED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE. THATS ALL FINE EXCEPT IF YOU ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE THEN I AM BY NO MEANS THE FIRST PERSON TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I AM WORRIED THAT ONE DAY IT WILL FINALLY LOCK UP COMPLETELY. I NOTICE THE ISSUE ON THE HIGHWAY THE MOST AS THERE ARE NOT AS MANY TURNS BUT YOU CAN ALSO NOTICE IT A LOT WHEN ON STRAIGHT BACK ROADS/COUNTY ROADS. IT HAS BEEN SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE THAT I HAVE NOTICED THIS ISSUE, SO AROUND 15,000 OR SO MILES NOW.

WHEN DRIVING THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND SHAKING OF THE CAR AND WHEN RUNNING OVER MAN HOLES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE CONTACT TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT AND HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN UNIVERSAL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE IF I GO OVER ANY BUMPS THE STEERING RATTLES AND SHAKES.

WHEN DRIVING IN HUNTSVILLE, AL ON CITY STREETS AND THE HIGHWAY WHEN I'M TURNING MY STEERING WHEEL IT MAKES A CLICKING NOISE AND THE COLUMN APPEARS LOOSE. THE BRAKES ARE STICKING AND REQUIRES ME TO PUSH DOWN HARD TO STOP MY VEHICLE. I HAVE REPLACED THE FRONT LIGHTS AND BACK ENDS LIGHTS NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY CONTINUE TO GO OUT FREQUENTLY. I PURCHASED NEW TIRES IN JUNE 2019 FROM BENTLEY HYUNDAI IN HUNTSVILLE, AL AND WHILE DRIVING THE TIRE TUBE POPPED AND DEFLATED. THERE WERE NO NAILS IN THE TIRE. THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE TUBE. I ALMOST CRASHED.

STEERING WHERE MAKES LOUD CLICKING NOISE WHEN TURNED LEFT AND RIGHT. ALSO, WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, SOUNDS LIKE THE ENTIRE UNDERNEATH IS ABOUT TO FALL OUT. MY MECHANIC SAYS IT IS THE COUPLER AND HE BELIEVES THERE IS A RECALL ON IT. HOWEVER, WHEN I LOOK IT UP, SAYS THAT THE 2011 AND 2013 WERE RECALLED, BUT NOT THE 2012. THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED ON THIS YEAR'S MODEL. ALSO, THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THAT IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WHEN DRIVING IT; I WOULD LIKE TO GET IT REPAIRED, BUT DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE PAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT HYUNDAI KNOWS IS A DEFECT.

WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL RIGHT OR LEFT THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE. WHEN GOING OVER EVEN A SMALL BUMP THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE THE CAR ALSO VEERS SLIGHTLY. THIS CAN NOT BE SAFE AND HYUNDAI SHOULD REALLY LOOK INTO THIS AND FIX IT WITH A RECALL.

I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT MAY BE WHEEL ALIGNMENT OR BALL POINT WHEN STEERING. I TOOK IT FOR A 2ND OPINION, AND THE SAME THING WAS STATED. I CALLED MY INSURANCE GEICO, AND THEY TOLD ME THER WAS A RECALL.

WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT A LOUD CLICK CAN BE HEARD COMING FROM STEERING COLUMN. WHEN DRIVING AND DRIVE OVER A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD THE STEERING COLUMN ALSO MAKES THE SAME NOISE.

STEERING WHEEL COUPLER IN STEERING COLUMN IS BROKEN.

STEERING COLUMN MOTOR MDPS RUBBER FLEX COUPLER REPAIR. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS - STEERING IS OFF AND MISGUIDED! DANGEROUS TO MANUVEUR CAR ON THE ROAD, TRAFFIC AND ON THE FREEWAY. CAN'T JUDGE/GUESS THE STEERING PLAY IF UNFORESEEN HAPPENS AND DRIVER HAS TO ACT QUICK TO GET CAR TO SAFETY. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE SONATA'S AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE THE STEERING COLUMN HAS TO BE TAKEN APART TO FIT IT.

MY STEERING IS CLUNCKING WHEN I TURN MY WHEEL. I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR 2 RECALLS AND I ASSUMED THIS WOULD BE ON THE RECALL LIST AS WELL. THE HYUNDIA DEALERSHIP THAT I BROUGHT THE CAR TO SAID THAT THIS WAS UNDER WARRANTY BUT I HAVE EXCEDED THE MANUFACUTRERS WARRANTY TO COVER THIS AND IT WOULD COST ME ALMOST 300.00 TO FIX IT MYSELF. I KNOW THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE SINCE MY SON IS A MECHANIC AND HAS TOLD ME OF SEVERAL THAT THEY HAVE REPLACED. I WOULD HOPE THAT HYUNDAI WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM FOR ME SINCE I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 7 YEARS AND NO COMPALINTS. IF THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX THIS PROBLEM I WILL JUST TRADE THE VEHICLE IN FOR A MANUFACTURER THAT WILL TAKE CARE OF PROBLEMS WHEN THEY HAPPEN.

HAVE A POPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT. READ ONLINE 2011 MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THE COUPLING. HOW IS THIS NOT A SAFETY RECALL ON THE 2012 MODEL?

AFTER HAVING EVERY RECALL IMAGINABLE INCLUDING THE REPLACEMENT OF MY ENGINE RECENTLY AFTER IT STALLED WHILE DRIVING DOWN ONE OF THE BUSIEST HIGHWAYS IN LAS VEGAS, I AM STUNNED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE ELECTRICAL FOR THE BRAKES HASN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. MY STEERING COLUMN IS CLICKING AND MAKING NOISES THAT HAVE INCREASED IN THE VOLUME OF THE SOUND AND IT DOES THIS EVERY SINGLE TIME I TURN THE WHEEL. I SEE OTHERS HAVE ALREADY HAD THIS FAIL IN THEIR 2012 SONATAS ENTIRELY AND PREVIOUS YEARS OF MY EXACT VEHICLE FOR THE SAME ISSUES HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I DRIVE A THREE YEAR OLD AROUND FREQUENTLY AND I AM AFRAID THAT SOON MY COLUMN WILL COMPLETELY DETACH ITSELF AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I SEE OTHER CONSUMERS HAVE HAD TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED OUT OF POCKET AT LOW MILEAGE AS WELL. CLEARLY WE CANNOT ALL BE MISUSING OUR VEHICLES....

MY 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA HAS BEEN ALIGNED TWICE BY FIRESTONE AND STILL HAS A PULL IN THE WHEEL WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO PULL AND SLOWLY DRIFT OFF THE ROAD THE CAR HAS NO STEADY ALIGN AFTER BEING ALIGNED AND I HAVE A YEAR WARRANTY ON THE ALIGNMENT IT'S SO IRRITATING DRIVING A NICE CAR WITH LITTLE THINGS LIKE THIS WHICH RUINS THE LUXURY OF ENJOYING MY ROAD CAR .

STEERING WHEEL MAKES CLICKING NOISE WHILE TURNING AND WHEN GOING OVER SPEED BUMPS, POTHOLES ETC

WHEN TURNING WHEEL SHARPLY WHILE IN MOTION, CAR MAKES CLICKING NOISE THAT SEEMS TO COME FROM THE FRONT WHEEL. THIS PROBLEM ORIGINALLY STARTED AROUND 60,000 MILES WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A PRIVATE PARTY. I DID NOT REALIZE IT WAS A PROBLEM AT THE TIME BECAUSE FOR ME, IT HAD ALWAYS MADE THE NOISE. AT FIRST THE NOISE ONLY HAPPENED WHILE IN REVERSE. NOT IT HAPPENS ANY TIME THE WHEELS ARE TURNED FAIRLY SHARPLY AND THE CAR IS MOVING IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. MILEAGE IS NOW ABOUT 85,000.

STEERING MAKES A CLICKING NOISE WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, POTHOLES, ETC. DEPENDING ON THE CONDITION OF THE ROAD, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL SHAKE. OCCURS AT ALMOST ANY SPEED (BUT OCCURS LESS DUE TO THE STABILITY AT LOW SPEEDS)

CLICKING NOISE WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL AT 68,000 MILES. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT 2011'S WERE RECALLED FOR THIS ITEM BUT NOT 2012'S, SO IT IS A WARRANTY ISSUE, BUT IT WAS BEYOND THE 60,000 MILES FOR WARRANTY. DEALER SAID IT'S "NOT A SAFETY ISSUE" SO I COULD KEEP DRIVING IT UNTIL I HAD THE MONEY TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR.

MY HYUNDAI SONATA SE 2012 STEERING WHEEL RECENTLY STARTED SHAKING ONCE I HIT 65 MPH. IT'S DOING IT ON AND OFF, BUT AT TIMES IT SOUND SCARY LIKE IT'S GOING TO FLY OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS HAD AN INTERNAL ELECTRICAL SHORT AND CONTAINED RUST AND CORROSION. ALSO, THE SOCKETS MELTED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS. THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT HAD TO BE REMOVED TO PREVENT THE MIDDLE REAR BRAKE LIGHT FROM REMAINING ILLUMINATED. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TAIL LIGHT WAS OPERABLE, BUT EVENTUALLY SHORTED OUT AS WELL. THE CONTACT ORDERED REPLACEMENT TAIL LIGHTS THREE TIMES, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED EACH TIME. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD NOISE CONCERNING THE FUEL SYSTEM. WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 18V137000 (SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS) AND 18V934000 (ENGINE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE CONTACT DID NOT RECEIVE ANY NOTIFICATIONS. MCGRATH CITY HYUNDAI (6750 W GRAND AVE, CHICAGO, IL 60707,...

STARTED HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES, 1: WHEN YOU USE THE BUTTON TO ROLL UP FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW OR PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE THE ELECTRIC TRUNK OPENER WILL POP THE TRUNK OPEN. 2: TROUBLE WITH LOW VOLTAGE TO THE WASTE GATE ACCURATER SENSOR THAT CONTROLS THE TURBOCHARGER UNIT. 3: NUMBER 2 DID NOT START UNTIL TWO OTHER CODES SHOWED UP ON MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THOSE TWO CODES ARE P0011 & P0014. THIS ELECTRICAL ISSUE SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. ME AND MY WIFE ARE ON DISABILITY AND CAN NOT AFFORD THE COST OF A DEALERSHIP TO CONTINUE TO TRY TO FIX IT WHEN THEY DON'T EVEN SEEM TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.

LOUD CLICKING NOISE WHEN DRIVING SPEED OF 50 MPH OR MORE ON THE INTERSTATE, SUDDENLY LOSS OF POWER STEERING CONTROL AND HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL. TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC. HE RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND CONFIRMED THAT THE STEERING COLUM COUPLING WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND THE POWER STEERING ASSIST MOTOR NEED REPLACING. RESEARCHED FOUND THAT THIS WAS INVESTIGATED FEBRUARY 2017 TSB #5NP-G5Z6W-03 , HOWEVER I DID NOT RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE.

I HAD TAKEN MY CAR IN DECEMBER 2018 AND I WAS INFORMED TO CHECK MY STEERING FOR THE COUPLING, BUT THAT WE WOULD. IT FALL UNDER THE WARRANTY. JAN 31. 2019 WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY MY CAR STARTED TO SHAKE AND THEN IT STALED. I TOOK TO A MECHANIC. WHO CALLED ME AND STATED THAT MY STEERING COUPLING WAS SHAVED DOWN AND CAUSE MY STEERING NOT TO WORK WHICH ALSO CAUSED DAMAGE TO MY TIE RODS. HE TOLD ME THIS WAS A RECALL FOR CAMPAIGN 132 BUT I INFORMED HIM THAT IN 2016 ACTUAL PART. I ALSO WENT BACK AND LOOKED TO SEE IF I HAD THE COUPLING PART ON MY RECEIPTS AND THERE IS NOTHING ON IT.

WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL THERE'S A CLUNKING NOISE. IT HAPPENS WHEN STATIONARY, OR WHEN DRIVING AND TURNING. HAD A WORN STEERING COUPLER REPLACED 1-10-19. HAVING SAME NOISE. NOW THEY SAY IT'S THE STEERING SHAFT AND IT'S GOING TO COST $420. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS.

THE DRIVER EXPERIENCED A STALLED ENGINE WHILE DRIVING. THE BRAKES FAILED TO RESPOND AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. THE CAR COASTED, DESPITE REPEATED BRAKING ATTEMPTS, AND JUMPED A CURB AND STOPPED WHEN IT RAN OVER ONTO A PERSON'S LAWN. THE DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO STEER AND STOP MULTIPLE TIMES. AS A CONSEQUENCE, THE TWO DRIVER SIDE TIRES BLEW OUT. THE CAR WILL BE TOWED TO A DEALER. A POLICE REPORT WAS ISSUED.

STEERING COUPLER HAS DISINTEGRATED ALLOWING DANGEROUS FREE PLAY IN STEERING ACCORDING TO AUTO TECH. OCCURS WHILE STATIONARY IF WHEEL IS MOVED SIDE TO SIDE, AS WELL AS IN MOTION. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR APPROX 6MO BUT HAS GOTTEN WORSE SO IT WAS JUST TAKEN TO A PRIVATE GARAGE FOR DIAGNOSIS. I REVIEWED FOR RECALLS BUT DID NOT FIND ANY FOR THIS ISSUE WITH THIS VIN. I BELIEVE MANUFACTURE SHOULD COVER REPAIRS DUE TO NATURE OF PROBLEM.

STEERING ASSIST FAILED AND THEN BEGAN OPERATING AGAIN WHILE IN MOTION. ALSO A KNOCKING WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT.

WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL OF MY 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA, IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, LEFT OR RIGHT, THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE. RECOMMENDED SERVICE HAS BEEN TO REMOVE AND REPLACE THE STEERING SHAFT WHICH IS EXTREMELY COSTLY. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS WHILE DRIVING. AS OF DATE, THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL CAMPAIGN, ALTHOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN OVER 200 COMPLAINTS REGISTERED WITH THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA). WILL HYUNDAI ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM?

STEERING WHEEL MAKES CLICKING NOISE WHILE TURNING THE WHEEL TO LEFT. NOISE ALSO HEARD WHEN CAR GOES OVER A SPEED BUMP OR POTHOLES

CLUNKING SOUND COMING FROM MY 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA. STARTED OFF VERY SOFT POPPING/CLICKING SOUND FEW MONTHS IN IT IS VERY LOUD AND NOW GOING OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD IT HAS GOTTEN VERY LOUD. ALSO MAKES SOUND WHEN SITTING AND JUST TURN THE STEERING WHEEL.SOUNDS LIKE THE STEERING WHEEL COULD GIVE OUT AT ANY MOMENT.

STEERING WHEEL IS MAKING A CLICKING NOISE. CAN BE HEARD WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR ON AND HAVE IT IN PARK AND TURN THE WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT. CAN BE HEARD BOTH WAYS. I HAVE BEEN READING A FEW COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME. ONLY HAVE 42,000 MILES ON MY CAR. WILL THIS BE A RECALL?

WHILE STATIONARY, TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL MAKES A CLUNKING SOUND AND HAS TO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING. WHILE IN MOTION IT FEELS AS IF THE CAR IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT, AGAIN WAY TOO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING. THIS IS CAUSE OF CONCERN. BEEN NOTICING FOR A FEW MONTHS

MAKES A POPPING SOUND WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. STARTED 3 WEEKS AGO, AT 1ST, IT WAS A QUARTER IN EITHER DIRECTION, WHILE STATIONARY, & HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE TO NOW 1/16 TURN & EVEN SOMETIMES IN MOTION. MY VEHICLE HAS ALMOST 119,000 MILES IT NOW.& I FOUND A STEERING COUPLING RECALL FOR THIS FOR MY VEHICLE,BUT I NEVER RECEIVED ONE, & THE RECALL I FOUND WAS FOR 100,000 MILES.

I FOUND A SONATA STEERING COUPLING EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 10 YRS OR 100,00 MILES TXX7 ISSUED ON FEB 27,2017 THAT I NEVER RECEIVED, & SINCE MINE NOW HAS ALMOST 119,000 MILES, IT SHOULD STILL BE COVERED.

VERY LOUD CLICKING / POPING NOISE COMING FROM STEERING COLUMN, WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION

CLUNKING SOUND COMING FROM MY 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA. STARTED OFF VERY SOFT POPPING/CLICKING SOUND FEW MONTHS IN IT IS VERY LOUD AND NOW GOING OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD IT HAS GOTTEN VERY LOUD. SOUNDS LIKE THE STEERING WHEEL COULD GIVE OUT AT ANY MOMENT. I WAS TOLD BY THE HYUNDAI DEALER THE COST IS $400 TO FIX FOR A $3.00 PART. THIS IS HIGHWAY ROBBERY. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED FOR THE STEERING TO GO OUT. IF SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN TO OCCUR I WILL CERTAINLY BE CALLING MY LAWYER. HYUNDAI FIX YOUR PROBLEMS BEFORE WE GO ELSEWHERE.

STEERING WHEEL MAKES CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNING AND HAS SLIGHT RESISTANCE.

ABOUT A YEAR AGO I STARTED NOTICING THAT THE STEERING WAS VERY STICKY AND HARD TO TURN ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE STEERING WHEELS IN THE SONATA STICK A LITTLE. ABOUT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO I STARTED HEARING A CLICKING/POPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT. ON SEP 1, 2018 I NOTICED THAT WHEN MY CAR WAS PARKED AND STILL RUNNING THAT MY STEERING WHEEL WAS STICKY AND MAKING A CLICKING/POPPING NOISE. WE BROUGHT IT TO OUR MECHANIC WHICH CHECKED THE FRONT END AND SAID EVERYTHING LOOKED GOOD. HE NOTICED THE CLICKING/POPPING IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND SAID THIS WAS A SERIOUS ISSUE.. I HAVE HAD MY HYUNDAI FOR 5 YEARS AND IT'S BEEN ONE RECALL AFTER ANOTHER OR THEY ARE EXTENDING THE WARRANTY BECAUSE OF AN ISSUE THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE A RESOLUTION...

STEERING WHEEL STARTS TO SHAKE AND RATTLE AFTER RENTING A CERTAIN SPEED LIMIT. MAKING IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE CAR ON THE ROAD SAFELY HYUNDAI NEED TO STOP BEING SO [XXX] CHEAP AND PUT A RECALL OUT ON THIS [XXX] BECAUSE I KNOW MY CAR IS NOT THE ONLY ONE DOING THIS, YOU SHOULD LOOK IT UP ONLINE AND YOU WILL BE SURPRISED AT ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS THAT ARE OUT THERE ABOUT THIS STEERING WHEEL PROBLEM!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THERE IS A "POPPING" NOISE HEARD IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT. THIS IS A WELL KNOW ISSUE WITH A PLASTIC BUSHING LOCATED WITHIN THE STEERING COLUMN. THERE ARE NUMEROUS VIDEOS ON THE INTERNET ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM. THEY ALL DEAL WITH THE SAME PART BEING "CHEWED UP" WITHIN THE STEERING COLUMN.

CLICKING NOISE WHEN STEERING,TURNING, AND DRIVING INTO A PARKING SPOT. NEVER HEARD ANY OTHER CAR MAKING CLICKING NOISE BEFORE THIS CAR AND I HAVE DRIVEN MANY DIFFERENT MAKE AND MODEL CARS! HYUNDAI SHOULD ISSUE AN ORDER TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN MANY HYUNDAI SONATA OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO.
