| Description of the problem | On 6/20/2015, while travelling on an interstate highway,, the steering wheel made a "clunk" noise and the power assisted steering warning light came on. Lights indicating a malfunction of the esc and downhill brake assist also lit up. There was complete loss of power assisted steering. I was able to manhandle the steering on side roads and made it home. On the first business day after the incident i took the vehicle to the local hyundai dealer where it has remained awaiting a replacement steering column. Updated 11/01/2017*cn |
