Model Year	2012
File date	16/10/16
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The steering wheel column makes a loud clicking noise when you turn it to the left and to the right. When you travel over 50 mph the steering wheel shakes violently and makes a loud noise. When you go over any bumps the steering column makes the same loud noise. I do not feel comfortable driving the car as it feels like the steering wheel is going to break off. This is extremely dangerous. This should definitely be a recall due to the high possibility of something catastrophic happening while driving the car. I have taken it to the shop and it is going to cost approximately $400. 00 to fix for a part that cost only $4. 00. This part should be a recall!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Listen to your consumers as this is a dangerous condition.
