| Manufacurer | Hyundai Motor America |
| Brand | HYUNDAI |
| Model | AZERA |
| Model Year | 2013 |
| File date | 20/08/20 |
| Component | STEERING |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Steering wheel makes a click/clunk noise when turning from left to right. Makes a large rattling noise when driven over any bumps. Steering wheel vibrates at highway speeds, lots of play in the wheel, pulls the car to the left. I later learned its a faulty steering coupler. Hyundai provides a 10yr/100k warranty on this part for the elantra and sonata. Its unfair when the same faulty parts are used on the azera but not covered as it is on the other models. |
