Description of the problem	There is and has been a very loud rattling noise coming from the steering column. When on the freeway, i must drive under 60 mph to avoid the noise. If there is a dip in the road or a speed bump it rattles loud. The steering wheel does not shake, so it isn't affecting my driving, but very disturbing and embarrassing. The lighting,there is a short. I'm constantly having to replace or tightened every couple of months. I spoke to someone that works at kragen who also has a sonata and he said he had the same problem until he ordered a $40. 00 casing. When he replaced my lights, he was unable to remove the bulb by twisting. He had to brake it because it had melted. I have not ordered it yet, but he ducked taped it in place and i still have the issues. This is ridiculous that i have to go through this. I'm an uber driver and i am trying to keep my car safe and in great condition, but it is disturbing when someone tell me my lights are out.
