Description of the problem	I have had issues with this car since i purchased it and purchase the extended warranty however all it has done is help with standard oil changes. The power steering or the steering wheel rather begin making a loud clicking noise when going in reverse it would be more pronounced i took it to the dealership and after two times there they finally said oh it's the left transaxle i took the vehicle home and immediately same sound i took it to capital hyundai and they said oh it's the right transaxle my tires have worn three times already on the front since i purchased this car in 2014 so i'm going through six tires in three years on the front end in addition to this problem i took the car in because the radio volume up button when i pressed it would initiate the phone functions of the car when i would hit cruise control resume then it would cancel the cruise control completely i told him this and they ended up replacing the left side buttons on my steering wheel but now my cruise control doesn't work at all in addition to this when i plug in iphone charger socket into the power receptacle the radio stops working and has complete interference when i pull it out the interference stops in the radio returns to normal the cooling function of the vehicle is nonexistent it blows hot air regardless until the engine gets really warm then it will blow cool air. As soon as the vehicle stops moving instance if i stop at a red light it begins blowing hot air again. When i had my oil changed in the last time i checked the oil and it was already black i took the car in for these service for the recall for the engine inspection and i feel like hyundai is going to say there's nothing wrong with the car because they're representing hyundai. I believe there should be an independent inspection facility to ensure that these engines are up to standard i don't believe my engine is ok
