Kona 4-cyl

  • 8,300 miles
At about 8300 miles I was backing out of a parking spot. Heard a noise coming from steering column. Took to Hyundai dealership. 1st visit they were closed due to power outage. 2nd trip. Mechanic couldn't hear noise. Had another mechanic along. Had to play a video I recorded on my cell phone. Mechanic pulls back into shop. Half hour later, I get told they had to order a steering column. Car now has just over 8600 miles. The noise sounds like a bad bearing. Can be heard parked and turning steering wheel left and right.
