Steering Wheel Vibrate Problems of Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

On Saturday, July 14th, while on the florida turnpike northbound, and driving at approx. 70 mph, the steering wheel started shaking, and I could hear some noise from the steering column. I immediately reduced my speed down to 50, and the steering wheel was still shaking, and the noise from the steering column was still there. I am a disabled veteran, and this is my only means of transportation to my appointments at the va hospital in west palm beach, florida which is approx. A 1/2 hour drive from my house.

Tl- the contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving with two passeners and a dog, the steering wheel had become tight as well as there was an abnormal vibration while driving a highway rate of speed at 70 mph. The contact had to decelerate to slow down the vehicle as the abnormal condition continued with the steering wheel vibration affecting the suspension. The contact was uncertain when an eps failure may progress with no warning indicator at any rate of speed. The dealer and an independent mechanic have not yet inspected and diagnosed the vehicle. The contact had not yet address and was not aware of NHTSA campaign numbers: 17v152000 (seatbelts) and 18v137000 (seat belts and air bags). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was to also address the recall repairs. The approximate failure mileage was 66,000. Dyd.

The recall for the coupler should be explanded to unlimited miles. This is a well documented problem and has failed on thousands of customers. $400 for a $5 piece of plastic is a ridiculous price for something Hyundai should be fixing. With a broken coupler, the steering becomes very unstable and is not safe. The steering wheel shakes violently and is not able to be controlled at high speeds.
