Description of the problem	I started the car and could not turn the steering wheel without applying heavy force. Looking at the dash board the esc and eps lights were both on. I turned of the car and restarted and the problem was gone. A few days ago i saw the recall of the 2009 and 2010 cars regarding this very problem. I called hyundai customer support to report my issue but was told my 2011 car was not on the recall list. Upon further research i have found this very issue appearing in elantra cars as resent as 2014. I ask the safety board to reexamine the issue in regards to later year of the elantra cars.
