So I was driving down the highway and I went to pass a car, (I never get close when passing) I was probably at least a quarter mile away from the car I was passing. I have every safety feature turned off, as I have, since buying the car almost 2 years ago. All of a sudden, I’m not sure if my sensor was off or what, but I’m assuming it thought I was too close to that car and it just started swerving all over the highway. I went left/right 4 times before I was finally able to regain control, I couldn’t couter-act the swerves, nor could I hold my steering wheel straight to stop them. Luckily there were very few people on the highway as it was early in the morning. Had the time of day been different, I probably wouldn’t be here today, and some others probably...
2020 Sonata......Steering wheel has started to make a raspy, rubbing noise when turned. When researching this problem on U tube, it is apparently a fairly common problem with Hyundai vehicles. The fix requires that a bearing in the steering be replaced. If not replaced I would imagine that the bearing would eventually seize up and the car could not be steered. I checked with local dealership and they were not aware of the problem and couldn't tell me if it would be covered by my warranty. I only have 9500 miles on the vehicle.
Steering parts being replaced many times, and the engine oil is low after I just got an oil change a week ago. Excessive engine oil usage with no idea where it is going.
Steering wheel makes whining/scrubbing noise when turning. Steering a vehicle is a critical component of safety and being able to avoid dangerous situations. The problem has been reported, inspected, and confirmed by a dealer. The component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or independent service center. There were no warning messages, lamps, or other symptoms of the problem prior to failure. The problem first appeared when the vehicle was under 15,000 miles. The dealership advised that the worm shaft assembly needs to be replaced.
WHEN STEERING THERE IS A LOUD NOISE WHEN TURNING IN EITHER DIRECTION BE IT LEFT OR RIGHT, SOMETHING IS RUBBING IN THE STIRRING COLUMN, WITH THE STIRRING HAVING FOR TO MUCH PLAY ALL MOST TURNING COMPLETELY A FULL CIRCLE I HAVE SENT IN THIS COMPLAINT ONCE BEFORE, BUT GAVE THE INCORRECT VIN NUMBER FOR MY CAR SOMETHING IS RUBBING, AND IT'S A LOUD SOUND. THE SOUND IS THERE IF WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION, OR STANDING STILL, IF YOU TURN THE STIRRING WHEEL
WHEN MAKING TURNS THERE IS A VERY NOTICEABLE SOUND WHEN TURNING BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT, WITH FOR TO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING WHILE TO THE POINT THAT IT ALL MOST GOES COMPLETELY AROUND. ..WHILE IN NORMAL DRIVE MODE IT SOUNDS SOUNDS SOMEWHAT LIKE A WASH CYCLE/
