I love my 2013 Hyundai Sonata SE, but with that being said I hate driving it. When on the road the 2013 has the same exact issue that the 2011's had, it will constantly wander in and out of the lane making it nearly impossible to keep a straight line. Its very fatiguing having to keep moving the steering wheel back and forth just to keep it straight. And for two its a serious safety issue!! The slightest slip could send your car off the road or into another car! When bringing the car into my local dealership they blew me off and said its " a normal thing because of the electric power steering and how the car rides the grooves of the road." And they refuse to help me out further to fix the issue. PLEASE GUYS. I know I am not the only one to report this issue please ask Hyundai to create a recall on it.

I was driving out of my home and my vehicle suddenly slowed down and stopped for no apparent reason.I jumped start the car for about 20 minutes and was able to reach a auto zone. They told me it was a dead battery so I buy a new $160 battery for the car to still not work and turn back on. Its like it would start but it would not fully turn all the way on. I recently purchased this vehicle 5 days ago and its already stopping in the middle of traffic.

The steering has become loose makes a very audible clunking sound when steered left and right. There is a severe amount of play in the steering you can turn it up to 3 in before the vehicle actually turns. It also causes drift due to the play. It makes the clunking noise even when sitting still, also has the play in the wheel when sitting still. It will drift while in motion and have the same play in the wheel and clunking.

- Johnson City, TN, USA

The Hyundai Sonata has a known steering issue. There is a loose clicking sound when steering. It apparently is caused by a faulty rubber coupling in the power steering mechanism. (part # 57315 2K000fff 'flexible coupling'). there are many complaints online about this issue. It should be a recall to replace this part with an improved version.

Hyundai corporation knew that was a problem with my car and identical cars steering wheel coupler and therefore increased coverage for repair from 50000 miles to 100000 naming ' concern' instead of faulty- defective to avoid recall. They never notified costumers regarding this concern! most inexperienced drivers don't understand the click sound that later turns into clank when part is totally damaged and that time their car is beyond 100000 miles. Hyundai dealerships failed intentionally to notify customers since they have been benefiting charging $380 to $480 to replace $2 part. If you review online complaints you will see similar significant amount of statements. Further more Hyundai corporation and dealerships compromised lives because of vibration of steering wheel can cause major accidents you may obtain copies of repair documents from Hyundai, dealers and owners regarding this ongoing outrages act that took place intentionally to avoid cost, liabilities and benefit from repairs while disadvantaging owners, jeopardizing lives and getting paid for something that should have been ' recalled '. I can give you an example that Hyundai issued safety recall fuel pump that small crack can lead to major problem and no time or millage limits applied. On the other hand steering wheel flex coupler can start as small crack and can cause major problems yet that failed to treat this defect same way and failed to notify customers

I started to notice that the steering has become increasingly loose in March of 2020. Recently while driving over even the smallest bumps in the road the steering wheel has started to rattle and shake and feels like it may come off. I work from home, so the car has not been driven a lot and mostly in the neighborhood where the speed limit is 35 to 55 miles per hour. I asked my local Hyundai dealer to take a look at it while I was there last week (9/22/20) to have a recall fixed and I was told it would be $150 just to look at the steering wheel unless there has been a recall for it. After seeing the many complaints regarding this same issue, this should certainly be fixed by Hyundai via a recall. I was considering replacing my vehicle with another Hyundai next year, but due to this issue, probably not. It is disconcerting to drive a vehicle that the steering wheel feels that it may break. I have never experienced this with any car and I have been driving for 40 years.
