1 Steering Wheel Vibrate problem of the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe

Failure Date: 03/15/2020

Started out with the steering wheel having a lot of play and small clicking noises with sharp turns, this has gotten progressively worse. If I go over a speed bump or even slightly adjust the wheel in street traffic there is a clicking sound in the steering column. On a small highway when I accelerate to 65mph the steering wheel shakes and jerks back and forth to the point of nearly losing control and there is a constant clicking noise. I took the vehicle in to be serviced and was told the problem is a plastic coupler within the steering column. I was told this is a widely known issue and it should be recalled. I did my own research on line and I am very unsettled with what I read. Several people have complained of this issue yet nothing has been done. This is very dangerous and a very expensive repair that can only be done at the Hyundai dealership. This needs to be addressed and a recall issued ASAP.
