My steering coupling needs to be replaced, but because I have over 100,000 miles Hyundai is refusing to replace it. I went to the dealership when I was at 70,000 miles with the same issue and no one said that it could be the steering coupling. This has been an on going issue and Hyundai should recall the steering coupling

This is a known issue with Hyundai and they still charge to fix it. I took my car in for the 4 recalls that were out on it and the dealership said that I need a coupling. The man in the service department said that the part Hyundai used is faulty and they have made a replacement that doesn't break but they still charge $300+ to fix it. The part only costs about $5. my steering shakes incessantly and makes a very loud clicking and clanking sound while driving and it's getting worse. It's a danger to drive and is hard to control because there is so much play in the wheel. I have called Hyundai and made a complaint but haven't heard back from them yet. They told me that the warranty for the part had been extended to 100,000 miles but my part didn't break until after the 100,000 miles. It's so frustrating, why wasn't this part of the recall since it is also a danger to the driver and passengers?? if I would have known that it was subject to breaking, I would have brought it in before the 100,000 miles - Hyundai should have taken care of this as it is a known problem. This is an issue every time I drive.

"steering coupler is bad" per the second mechanic that has looked at my car, one was from a Hyundai dealership. I know two individuals that have replaced their steering coupler after the steering wheel started shaking, rattling, or clanking noises. If it is not replaced and the coupler breaks, I will loose control of my car.

The steering wheel clicks when turning or hit a bounce. It is the motor driven power steering coupling, part # 56315-2K000-ffff. The technical bulletin # 14-St-002-1 states that it takes 1 1/2 hours to replace yet the dealer states it is a 3 hour job. There are numerous complaints about this yet no recall even though it is a piece of crap part.

The sterring wheel is loose.

- College Park, GA, USA

I felt a "looseness" on my steering column especially when hitting a bump. I put the car in for service with my personal mechanic. He pointed out to me that a plastic gear well in the inside of the steering column had worn down. Almost at same time I received a recall notice from Hyundai entitled "collision risk electric power steering unit may loss" NHTSA code 16V190000. I called the service manager at carousel Hyundai in West chester pa. Where I purchased the car. He told me that the worn plastic gear was not part of recall and it was a separate issue. Implying that I would have to pay for it. This is a safety issue and they will have steering column apart for recall, why can't they replace plastic gear while steering column is broken down. It is hard to reach space. I am taking car to dealer for two recalls tomorrow at 8:00. I will let you know what happens

Steering coupler replaced within 6 months of service for recall 16V190000. Maybe be unrelated to recall repair but from forums read, this has been a stand alone issue and in conjunction with the recall repair
