Description of the problem	Whenever i'm driving for the past 5 going on 6 months since i purchased the vehicle i've noticed the steering column makes a loud clunking noise. No matter the speed i'm traveling the steering column continues to make this noise. I have noticed the on going issue has affected a lot of other consumers on numerous other hyundai sonata year models! I'm afraid that if this issue is left unresolved that steering column may detach and cause serious injury and or death!! I would like to know what could be done to resolve this issue asap!!!
