| Description of the problem | I took my car in to a hyundai dealer for campaign #133, 136, 132, and was told that there is a problem with the steering column, it will be $400 to fix. Upon further research, i learned of a old recall in 2010 for this same problem, but only on certain vin numbers. There are to many complaints for this not to be reopened with all vin numbers included. Obviously the manufacture continued to make the same mistake on all vehicles. |
