| Description of the problem | Purchased our 2017 sonata. While driving for no apparent reason i lose power steering and can barely turn the wheel. I have to pull over with great struggle and turn the car off then restart it to be able to get power steering back. The light for power steering illuminates on the display panel and then disappears after i re-start it. Along with the traction control at times, but often just the power steering fails. Happens usually at speeds around 10-30 miles per hour. They have had multiple recalls in the past years for the same problem. Even other models and same year. Https://www. Caranddriver.
