| Description of the problem | Brought the car in for the steering recall and they tell me the steering coupler is bad will cost $400 to replace and is not covered under the recall. I see numerous people are having serious steering issues because of this faulty part. The 2011 sonata with 68,000 should not be having this issue. Why wasn't this included with the recent steering recall |
