 Description of the problemSitcky steering wheel. At highway speeds the sticky steering wheel is very prominent, infact gets progressively worse after 50 miles per hour, very pronounced at 70. Vehicle would sway to the left or right first, when pressure is applied to get the tire point to the center, the steering wheel instead of getting to the dead center would over correct and make the wheel slightly point to the opposite side. And this would repeat. The steering wheel feels sticky or notchy, that it gets stuck in slots around instead of moving smoothly around. This causes not just driver fatigue, but is extremely dangerous constantly throwing the car of out of the lane. I reported this to the service center an year back, and wheel alignment was recommended, but the issue has only gotten progressively bad now. Will be going to dealer back again to see if this can be fixed. But when i googled about this issue so many other people are also encountering the same problem, for many steering column was replaced and yet was not resolved. Hyundai must perform a recall on this voluntarily, and find a fix for this highly dangerous safety problem. This is not a simple old car worn out problem, my car had far less than 20k miles when i initially reported it, and now close to 30k, and the car is just two years old, just driven on highway. If it was a lease, i would have just handed it back and forgotten about it, unfortunately we bought it.
