| Description of the problem | As many other complaints on the internet and the nhsta site my sonata makes a clunking noise when turning the steering wheel. The 2011 sonata was recalled. Why are the later years not when apparently the same issue exists. This is dangerous and needs to be repaired by the manufacturer. How many complaints will it take for the government to take action? How many deaths? The noise is made when turning the steering wheel to the left and right. |
