The steering has been progressively getting worse over time. Initially I started with my steering wheel locking occasionally. Then started small clicking and clunking noises when turning steering wheel or going over bumps. Now the noise is all lot worse and the steering wheel feels like it wants to come off at times. I have read several complaints with the same issues and yet Hyundai has not admitted this is an issue with these vehicles. I have been basically pleased with this vehicle up until this issue started. A lot of complaints I read was that this started around the 100,000 mile point, which would be correct with me as well, it started just before I hit 100,000 and has continued and progressively gotten worse.

Purchased a 2013 Hyundai Sonata around April of 2019. Noticed a slight clunking noise when turning steering wheel left or right immediately after purchase. Took it to the Hyundai dealership in chambersburg PA. They took care of 2 open recalls. Then they asked if we wanted to fix the clunking noise in the steering wheel & said there were no current recalls for it yet. The noise has changed to a louder more constant noise at all speeds and road conditions that is really annoying & makes us fear that there is a more extensive problem. Found out that the 2011 models had a recall for the problem & are very concerned about our vehicle. We drive a lot on interstates & do not want to risk a loss of steering. We have grandchildren that are babies! please help!.

Also, voiced concerns about repetitive failure of rear light bulbs and what appears to be faulty poor quality light plugs or too light of wiring for lights on car; nothing done a peacock Hyundai in columbia to check matter or remedy matter.

I have been hearing and feeling a knock noise in the steering wheel. I has been when I'm turning the wheel when not moving. Now it started happening when I'm going to make a turn going slow and the steering wheel has started to feel looser to the turn. I have looked it up and have found many complains about the same issue. I don't know what to do. I called the dealer service dept. To see if there is a recall. No answer. I'm a grandmother that drives 2 toddlers and are afraid about a dangerous accident happening. I don't have anyone to advice me. Please tell me what to do. Should I fill a complaint so it's on record. Should I just go to any auto repair. But after seeing complaints about same issue I'm worried. I din't know what you do but I need advice. Can you check up about these complains and what could be causing this and what needs replacement, so I know if it is a danger. It seemed yesterday to start to be happening while moving which makes me scared to drive the car. Please if you can tell me if this is just to make a report. Thank you sherry bernstein tex 9542993671 or email mbsbassoc@aol. Com.
