Steering developed "slack" when turned wheel car did not respond immediately. Problem was diagnosed as defective steering column. Computer search suggested this was similar to previous recall for models other than Azera. Hyundai declined to repair without $1500 charge, when driving car wanders and will not track straight. Obviously worse at highway speed,.

Had to replace faulty steering wheel coupler that was a subject of a recall in other Hyundai models. Literally the same exact part and part number as recalled models, but no recall on Azera. Blessedly I had it replaced before it completely failed, but others undoubtedly may not recognize issue and car will eventually completely fail to steer. Car would make odd clicking sound from steering column turning left of right just off center or over bumps.

My 2013 Hyundai Azera engine failed may 19, 2019 as I was driving on the highway, my car insurance denied my claim due to findings of a manufactures/mechanical default and Hyundai refused to fix it stating it was out of warranty and that I had to pay out of pocket, if and wheni get it towed there. On October 2020, Hyundai received my car by tow and said that they could rebuild an engine and put it in at a cost to me. The rebuilt engine was put in Jan 2020 and failed at the dealership as the tested in February 2020 I picked my car up and the engine failed a week later as I was driving on the highway again. Chp impounded my car and Hyundai refused to get it out. I payed the fee. March 2020 Hyundai rebuilt another engine and put it in and I am having issues and concerns of my safety and Hyundai refused to address releasing the car to me with, airbag light on, horn doesn't work nothing on the steering column works, front light falls back into car,and now the back camera broken windshield wipers/fluid doesn't come out, hood of car lifted up on rights side ,panorama roof continues to get stuck, I asked them to repair all these things and to check my cars engine on yesterday April 2020 and management and corporate they refused and ive been having car issues starting the month after I bought the car, like the airbag issue.

Our 2013 Azera, with less than 29k miles, started wandering back and forth while driving. Even on neighborhood streets at slow speeds not just on city streets and highways. I started noticing that I had play in the steering wheel. At first it was only maybe a half inch but if I turned the wheel fast enough back and forth, it made a thumping noise and I could feel it in the wheel. Now there is 6 inches turn from left to right and the wheel and column rattles and thuds on every imperfection in road surface. The first indication was noticed 4 days ago. Today I fear it's not safe to drive anywhere. Even to drive in to get it repaired. The problem I have seems to be similar to those already documented complaints on this model and will be fixed at my expense since there is no recall for my year/model Hyundai. As it is still under 30k miles, this is highly disappointing to say the least.

The steering column has the same faulty coupler that has to replaced on all the sonata, electra's and kia's in the year ranges from 2009 to 2017. They have a recall for the power steering coupler in the 2009-2017 sonata and electra cars, but did not include the Azera. After talking with many dealerships, they replace them daily on the Azera's as well, why was this coupler not included in the recall? if the coupler breaks while driving all steering is lost. Just a small amount of research will show you how many Azera owners are having the same repair. It happens when the wheel is turned and it makes a cracking noise, both stationary and in motion. The noise increases over time and starts to rattle on bumps. The problem can cause deaths, if not made aware of to the owners of these vehicles.

As of 7/26/19 my airbag light came on when I started my car it was still overnight and hasn't gone off I took it to nalley Hyundai in lithonia g. A 8/12/19 where I was told theirs no recall but the clock screw needs to be replaced and my steering column to fix the click in the steering wheel and was then given an estimate I feel this is a faulty item that is conducive to my safety and I shouldn't have to pay for it.

There is 'slop' or 'play' developing in the steering. You can move the steering wheel left and right without it engaging the steering. While driving, you must move the steering wheel farther to change direction. It has been diagnosed as a defective steering column coupler by an ase certified mechanic. Other Hyundai's have a recall on this part but not the Azera and they are the same part doing the same function and failing the same way. Hyundai should be directed to cover all their models with this same part. It can be felt failing while sitting still and moving the steering wheel and is more noticeable when driving, especially on the highway.

The steering column and wheel had a lot of play that got progressively worse. I had a spot that would " pop" when you turn it left or right. That also progressively worsened to the point that I would get a loud clunking noise when I turn the wheel or hit even the slightest bump on the road. I found a lot of similar complaints online for the Hyundai's and a large recall for the sonatas and elantras but doesn't include the Azera. Its the same exact issue and same part with a defective rubber coupler behind the steering wheel. I paid to have the part repaired yesterday when the two other people on the Hyundai work shuttle had their repairs covered by the recall. All 3 of us in that car had the same exact problem ! that's how common it is! how in the world can they not include the Azera?.

My Azera is out of warranty but the steering coupler is worn and needs to be replaced. Several models and model years have been issued a recall for this problem but my vehicle (according to Hyundai customer care) is not one of the vehicles. Hyundai should repair the worn steering coupler with no charge to the customer or at least discount the cost of repair from the outrageous $500. 00 price quoted to me. The part is less than $20. 00 to purchase. My steering column clunks over bumps and vibrates at speeds over 50 miles/hour.

2012 Hyundai Azera, vehicle has 64,000 miles. Has developed a clicking/clunking sound in the steering column when turning the steering left, right, and when hitting bumps. The issue can be replicated sitting still or when driving via a prominent clicking/clunking sound. Steering has become sloppy and dangerous. Research shows it is a defective steering coupler that Hyundai is aware of, which is not covered under warranty. This issue is documented by numerous complaints, yet Hyundai has not provided a recall despite it being recalled for replacement on other Hyundai models using the same coupler.
