I purchased this vehicle back in January of 2019 & when I purchased it the steering wheel made a clicking sound. I mentioned it to the car dealer & was assured it was nothing. After having my oil changed I was told my steering column needed to be replaced. This is quite disheartening as I have had the car for just one year & a half at this point. I was told to research for recalls in relation to this particular issues as it has been reported for other vehicles of the same make, model & year. I am afraid my car steering will go out while driving.

The steering knuckle (coupler) is bad.

- Chesapeake, VA, USA

Car has been in shop 3 times for same issue. Car pulls dangerously to the left. I've noticed many complaints online for this exact problem but not recall or fix available. This is extremely dangerous due to the fact you have to over compensate steering. This will happen on any road or highway. Even worse if roads are bad, the will over compensate itself. Scary to drive.

There is an existing safety issue with Hyundai electric steering. The rubber steering coupling is defective and they have issued an extended warranty for 2013 Hyundai Elantra sedans but not the GT models. However, they both use the same electric motor. My car exhibits the "clunking noise" which is a symptom of the worn part. My Hyundai dealer checked it and immediately said that it was indeed the problem but upon checking my VIN number my GT model Elantra is not covered. I think Hyundai has just overlooked this but even though I have an open case with them they keep beating around the bush about it. I tried explaining to them that this is a serious safety issue but it didn't seem to help. When you move the steering wheel back and forth you hear this clunking noise which is indicative of the worn rubber bushing. Attached in the next paragraph is the verbiage from the Hyundai website regarding this issue. I really need to get them to cover my car. It is a $300 plus repair. Bulletin number: 5np-F8M5G-03 bulletin date: 02-27-2017 component: 353000 equipment:electrical summary: Hyundai has announced an extended warranty for the motor driven power steering (mdps) coupling on the following vehicles: ? 2011-2014 sonata (yfa), 2011-2014 sonata hybrid (yf hev) ? 2007-2015 Elantra (hd, md/ud), 2009-2012 Elantra tourin

The steering coupler in my 2013 Hyundai Elantra went bad around 150,000 miles... now there's a clicking sound and 'play' in the steering wheel because Hyundai used an inferior part. Once I started researching I realized it's an incredibly common issue that the dealership wants several hundred dollars to repair. This should absolutely be repaired under a recall or extended warranty (well beyond the 100K mark) since this is not part of normal wear and tear or abuse.

Steering cupler makes a knocking noise when turning. My family machinic stated that that these cars had a recall on them. But when call dealership they said my car is not part of this recall for same issue?

The vehicle was taken to mcconnell Honda dealer, (2840 eastern blvd, montgomery, al 36116, (334) 271-2500) where it was diagnosed that the router cuff on the steering wheel had worn out and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to the repair fees. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 19,602.

- Selma, AL, USA

With less than 22,000 miles, the steering wheel began making a knocking sound when turned left to right while driving or stationary. The steering wheel was more difficult to control as time went on. I took it in for repairs and found that the coupler had been shredded. This is a $5 piece which costs a few hundred dollars to have replaced by an auto shop. Hyundai should be replacing these, instead of its customers.

My Elantras brake lights are always on. My traction control light, eps light, ABS light, and brake warning light are always on as well. I see where my vehicle is shown that the recalls have already been repaired on my car and I do not believe that is true or this would not be happening. My brakes lights constantly being on is a major problem because that can cause confusion on other drives and especially when I'm really using them to slow down. I'm always having to constantly replace the light bulbs on the left hand side of my vehicle as well which is odd. I'm very concerned and frustrated and wish I would receive assistance in fixing the problem. I have not been in any wrecks with my vehicle either. I also had someone check my car for any codes and vehicle speed sensor came up as well as brake switch.
