The contact stated that when she switched the hi-beam lights on to drive at night at 60 mph the entire lighting system including the hi-beams would flicker on and off. The lighting system would also go on and off when the contact turns the steering wheel. The lights would stay off for about three to five seconds before coming back on.

Headlights and interior lights flickering/going out while the car is in motion or stationary on city streets and highways. Sometimes they don't come back on unless I tinker with the headlight control switch. It is a major safety concern seeing as how I drive daily in the dark to work

This car has several issues which I have found other 2014 owners having the same issue as I do. The headlights and taillights take turns going out. I am to the point about every 5 weeks I am replacing a burned out light. One headlight will go out then I fix that. A few weeks later I will get pulled over for a taillight.being out. One officer told me he was giving me a warning because his wife has the same issues with her lights going out. I will replace the taillight then a few weeks later the other headlight will go out then the other taillight will go out. I find myself always replacing a light. I've pulled up to many Forte owners to let them know a taillight was out and they all say "again" the lights are a major problem. Also my driver side window won't go all the way up. I have had the problem fixed then about 6 months later the same problem happened again where the window will go almost all the way up but it still leaves a little gap in the window for air to come inside which will cause your car to rock back and fourth from the air flow in and out. Its dangerous as it has even pushed me into the other lane from the air pressure coming through the opening in the window.

While driving at night, my headlights would go completely out. Once I switch them on again, they would go out once again. This would take place every couple of minutes and is very dangerous. I took my car into the dealership and was told that they knew exactly the issue because they repaired quite a few cars with the same issue. The total cost to repair this issue was $238. This is very dangerous and should be placed on the recall list.

Steering: Steering makes a loud knocking noise under the dashboard when turning the wheel left or right. Noise happens when vehicle is stationary or moving at any speed.
