Description of the problem	I started to notice that the steering has become increasingly loose in march of 2020. Recently while driving over even the smallest bumps in the road the steering wheel has started to rattle and shake and feels like it may come off. I work from home, so the car has not been driven a lot and mostly in the neighborhood where the speed limit is 35 to 55 miles per hour. I asked my local hyundai dealer to take a look at it while i was there last week (9/22/20) to have a recall fixed and i was told it would be $150 just to look at the steering wheel unless there has been a recall for it. After seeing the many complaints regarding this same issue, this should certainly be fixed by hyundai via a recall. I was considering replacing my vehicle with another hyundai next year, but due to this issue, probably not. It is disconcerting to drive a vehicle that the steering wheel feels that it may break. I have never experienced this with any car and i have been driving for 40 years.
