Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Front end making a noise upon a slow to medium front or back-up turn. Also, at various times the esp light came on and i lost power steering(very dangerous while on the road at speed). Also, the front tires were wearing very unevenly(rear tires fine). They replaced the steering angle sensor and steering shaft assembly on 24dec 2010 with mileage at 35,791. They offered to sell me two front tires, alignment and balance at a steep price, i declined and had my mechanic do it for less. I strongly feel that the defect caused my tires to wear out too soon. This is a potentially fatal defect because if it happens while at highway speed you will suffer injuries. This is my third hyundai, the two were fine.
