problem #1

Jan 012014

Sonata GLS 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 60,000 miles

ANOTHER electrical issue.

Cruise control buttons started to work intermittently then stopped working altogether shortly after.

I'm really handy, so I removed the steering wheel and gained access to buttons. Hyundai used cheap

cheesy connectors on their switches. Applied di electric grease and only bought myself another month before it stopped working altogether again.

Now when I'm desperate on a long road trip for cruise control I literally smack the steering wheel until the contacts on the bottom actually engage the cruise control. Also why would I pay for a replacement when its a bad design to begin with and only going to happen again.
