| Description of the problem | I have a lunk noise and play in my steering wheel though it needed a alingment but was told it was a steering coupling. Sonta and elantra has a recall on the same issue its the same $1. 88 part that is failing in the other hyundai cars and they have a recall but not the veloster well if its the same part then it is a defective part recall it. This is safety concern guess they waiting for someone to get hurt before its recalled oh by the way its $388. Roughly the dealership said to fix it for a $1. 88 rubber piece go figure. I purchased this 2012 veloster off the showroom floor i am the only owner |
