2010 Hyundai Elantra Complaint Log

AS I WAS EXITING THE HIGHWAY ONTO A SHARP CURVED OFF RAMP, UNEXPECTEDLY THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN WITHOUT WARNING. THIS UNEXPECTED LOSS OF MY POWER STEERING ALMOST PUT ME INTO THE ROADS GUARD RAILWHILE NAVIGATING THE OFF RAMP. I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL AND SAFELY PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I NOTICED THE 'EPS' LIGHT WAS ON. I SHUT OF MY VEHICLE AND TRIED TO TROUBLE SHOOT IT, WHICH I WAS UNABLE TO DO. I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND MY STERRING RETURNED TO NORMAL POWER STEERING MODE. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP SO THEY COULD TROUBLESHOOT THE EPS ISSUE, AGAIN THE VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING WITH THE EPS LIGHT TURNING ON. THE VEHICLE IS BEING TAKEN TO HYUNDAI OF SLIDELL FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THE VIN WAS EXCLUDED FROM A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 15876848 THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 148,000.

ON SATURDAY JUNE 15 MY EPS CAME ON. I LOOKED IT UP AND SAYS THERE IS A RECALL ON THE STEERING. TODAY JUNE 17 I CALLED HYUANDAI AND THEY TELL ME THERE IS NO RECALL. I WOULD RECOMMEND ALL 2010 ELANTRAS GET LOOKED AT FOR A RECALL ON THE STEERING. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND DRIVING THE CAR VERY FAR TILL YOU GET IT CHECKED OUT. I STARTED THE CAR WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON SATURDAY

THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN NEEDS TO BE REPLACED MAKES CLICKING NOISE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT BACK IN 2015 NOT SURE IF IT WAS REPLACED THEN. I WAS TOLD THEY CANT FIX IT THE RECALL BACK FROM 2015.

AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY DURING FRONT END CRASH AT 35-40 MPH

POWER STEER ASSIST FAILED PULLING OUT OF DRIVEWAY, EPS LIGHT WAS ON, STEERING DIFFICULT

THE STEERING COLUMN FELL INTO MY LAP WHEN I WAS PARKING THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY REPAIR SHOP TOLD ME THAT ALL THE SCREWS HOLDING IT IN PLACE HAD COME LOOSE.

EPS LIGHT IS ON. RECALL #127 AND #110 ONLY UPDATED EPS SOFTWARE WHEN IF FACT THE STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY NEEDS REPLACED ON OVER 300,000 CARS RECALLED FROM 2008-2010. MY CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALER ON 5/7/2019 AND EPS SOFTWARE UPDATED ONLY!!!! CASE NO. 15684240. MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO DO ANOTHER RECALL FOR SAFETY REASONS AND SAFE LIVES!!! PEOPLES POWER STEERING IS BEING LOST. PLEASE READ ALL COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET AND CONTACT CORPORATE AT HYUNDAI. CAR HAS 97,000 MILES ON IT. EPS SOFTWARE UPDATED ON 5/7/2015 WITH 79,000 MILES. HYUNDAI SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRING ALL STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY, NOT THE CONSUMER AT OVER $2,400. BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS CAR, I CHECKED VIN AND NO OPEN RECALLS. I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR IF I KNEW OVER 300,000 VEHICLES WERE INVOLVED AND HYUNDAI WOULD NOT FIX!!! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED.

TYPO: DATED SOFTWARE UPDATED WAS 5/7/2015 - 79,000 MILES - NOT 5/7/19 (TYPO ON DATE). SEE COMPLAINT NUMBER 11202976.

EPS LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A TOTAL COST OF $2500 APPROX (REPLACE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN). CAR HAS ONLY 113K. NOW I HAVE NO POWER STEERING. THERE WAS A RECALL TO UPDATE THE EPS CONTROL UNIT WHICH MY MECHANIC SAYS IS JUST A PATCH AND NOT A REAL FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ON A LOT OF HYUNDAI VEHICLES. MY POWER STEERING WAS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AND IS NOW COMPLETELY OFF, MY CAR WAS PARKED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED BROWN'S MANASSAS HYUNDAI (8651 CENTREVILLE RD, MANASSAS, VA 20110, (703) 361-9600) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY OR INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V100000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000.

I HAVE A 2010 ELANTRA 4DSD 2.0 102,000 MILES I HAVE HAD NO MAJOR ISSUES WITH THE CAR UNTIL ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. SUDDENLY THE EPS LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST POWER STEERING. UPON PULLING OVER AND RESTARTING THE CAR THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. I WENT ABOUT A WEEK, AND SUDDENLY IT DID IT AGAIN. RESTARTED CAR, WENT AWAY, STILL DOES THIS INTERMITTENTLY. 2 DAYS AGO, EPS LIGHT WAS ONE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO REMOVE THE LIGHT USING THE METHOD ABOVE. ALSO, MY POWER STEERING WHEEL IS SO STIFF. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TODAY, THEY FOUND THE FOLLOWING CODES: EPS - ELECTRONIC POWER - C1290 - TORQUE SENSOR MAIN SIGNAL FAULT EPS - ELECTRONIC POWER - C1604ECU(BRAKE SYSTEM) HARDWARE ERROR THEY TOLD ME I WOULD NEED A NEW STEERING COLUMN ($2500+). THIS SEEMS A BIT STRANGE TO ME FOR AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE. PER GOOGLE CHECK @ HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/HYUNDAI/ELANTRA/STEERING-PROBLEMS.PHP, THIS ELANTRA STEERING ISSUE IS A CONSTANT ISSUE FOR MANY YEARS. WHAT CAN NHTSA DO TO HELP AMERICANS OWNING HYUNDAI CARS HAVING THIS PROBLEM?

BOUGHT MY CAR USED TO FIND OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. I'VE LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. GOING ON TO THE HIGHWAY I'VE NOTICED THAT MY RPMS GO HIGH UP TO 3RD AND DONT KICK INTO GEAR UNTIL I'M ON FLAT SURFACE ON THE HIGHWAY ALSO WITH A ROUGH SLAM INTO THE RIGHT GEAR, BARELY FEELS LIKE I'M GETTING THE RIGHT POWER. EVEN DRIVING IN THE CITY MY CAR HAS A ROUGH JERK WHEN GOING INTO GEARS. I CANT BELIEVE THIS IS NOT ON A RECALL!!!?.

THIS LIGHT CAME OF SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR AND AFTER 15 MINS OF DRIVING IT EVERYTIME SEEMS TO CONE UP IVE TRIED PRESSING THE OFF BUTTON FOR IT BUT THAT DOESNT WORK THE CAR SEEMS TO STEER ITSELF AT TIMES ALONG WITH OCCASIONAL BREAK PROBLEMS... I TRIED TO ANSWER YES TO IT HAD BEEN IN A WRECK BUT DIDNT KNOW ANY OF THE REQUIRED INFORMATION FOLLOWING THAT BECAUSE I DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE WRECK SINCE IT HAPPENED DURING THE POSSESION OF ITS PREVIOUS OWNER ALL I WAS TOLD IS THAT IT HAD BEEN IN A WRECK DURING PURCHASE

I HAVE EXCESS PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL/BUMPING/CLICKING, WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. THIS CAUSES A SHIMMY IN THE FRONT END WHEN BRAKING. THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES SO FAR. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER STEERING. THERE IS NO EXCESS PLAY IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING. THERE IS EXCESS PLAY ANYTIME THE ENGINE IS RUNNING, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL MOVE SEVERAL INCHES WITHOUT MOVING THE FRONT WHEELS.

FLEX COUPLING IN STEERING COLUMN HAS COME APART.

I'M REQUESTING NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE FAILURES OF SEVERAL SYSTEMS OF HYUNDAI ELANTRA 2010: SIMULTANEOUSLY FAILED/UNRESPONSIVE BRAKING, LURCHING/ACCELERATION DESPITE TRYING TO PUSH BRAKE PEDAL, &FAILED POWER STEERING CAUSING UNSAFE SITUATION AND ACCIDENT IN WHICH AIR BAGS ALSO FAILED TO DEPLOY DESPITE 2 IMPACTS TO FRONT END BUT FORM ONLY ALLOWED 3 PARTS OF CAR AFFECTED.

THE HOOD LATCH IS INCREDIBLY RUSTY AND NOW IS STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION. THE HOOD IS NO LONGER PROPERLY LATCHING CLOSED WHICH COULD CAUSE IT TO FLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING. WHEN CLOSED IT SOUNDS LIKE IT HAS LOCKED BUT UPON CLOSER EXAMINATION IT IS NOT LATCHING. I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM A WHILE BACK BUT WITH SOME EFFORT WAS ABLE TO ENGAGE THE LATCH. NOW I AM NO LONGER ABLE TO CORRECT THE ERROR AND I'LL HAVE TO GET IT REPLACED.

TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND JERKS GOING TO THIRD GEAR AND SOMETIMES TAKES ABOUT 5 SECONDS TO DOWNSHIFT IF ACCELERATION IS NEEDED AS I'M ENTERING A HIGHWAY. MY CAR HAD ABOUT 45,000 MILES WHEN THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM ACCORDING TO ONLINE FORUMS BUT THE MANUFACTURE WOULD NOT ISSUE A RECALL ON THESE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE STEERING ASSIST FAILED AND CAUSED THE STEERING WHEEL TO SEIZE WHEN TURNED IN EITHER DIRECTION. THE DEALER (MURFREESBORO HYUNDAI, 2203 NW BROAD ST, MURFREESBORO, TN 37129, 1-615-713-1532) WAS NOTIFIED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V100000 (STEERING) ALTHOUGH THE FAILURE WAS IDENTICAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WITH ONLY 44, 434 MILES ON THE CAR, THE STEERING COLUMN HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED EXTREME PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND A NOISE WHEN IT REACHED THE END OF A FULL TURN; MY MECHANIC EXAMINED IT AND FOUND A COUPLING IN THE COLUMN WAS BROKEN AND LUBRICANT WAS OOZING OUT. HE REPLACED THE STEERING COLUMN.

REQUEST EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR AIRBAG LIGHT THAT CONTINUALLY STAYS ON. REQUEST EXTENDED WARRANTY AND FREE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND CHECK OF CLOCK TIMER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V100000 (STEERING). WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS AND MAKING TURNS, THE STEERING WHEEL PULLED TO THE CENTER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (SPECKS HYUNDAI OF TRI CITIES, 002 N 28TH AVE, PASCO, WA 99301, (509) 542-0234) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING SHAFT NEEDED TO BE ADJUSTED, THE STEERING MODULE NEEDED TO BE REFLASHED, AND THE STEERING COLUMN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS NO STEERING FAILURE PRIOR TO THE RECALL REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

THE ESC LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY AND STAYS ON FOR LONGER PERIODS OF TIME. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE STEERING RACK, REPROGRAMMED THE SYSTEM AND THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA TOURING. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE AND A UTILITY POLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SUSTAINED INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 11,000.

HAD BEEN DRIVING TO STORE AND WHEN I STARTED IT UP AGAIN THE EPS LIGHT WAS RED.

59,600 MILES IN CAR. PARKED CAR FOR NIGHT, NEXT MORNING TURNED VEHICLE ON AND EPS AND ESC OFF LIGHTS WERE ON. VEHICLE HAD NO POWER STEERING AND WAS HARD TO TURN IF NOT MOVING. RECALL ON EPS SOFTWARE WAS DONE 11 MONTHS AGO. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WHERE PROBLEMS WERE DIAGNOSED AS BAD SENSORS. THAT'S NOT BAD UNTIL THEY TELL YOU SENSORS THEMSELVES CANNOT BE REPLACED AND YOU NEED TO HAVE A COMPLETE NEW STEERING COLUMN INSTALLED AT $2,500. YES THE CAR IS 8 YEARS OLD, BUT ONLY 59,600 MILES. LOOKING AT COMPLAINTS, THIS IS A PROBLEM HYUNDAI SHOULD ADDRESS.

THEY RECALLED EPS IN 2015 AND I WASN'T NOTIFIED. NOW THEY TOLD ME IT WAS STEERING COLUMN PROBLEM AND WANTED TO CHARGE ME OVER $2000 FOR THIS. THE DEALER WON'T EVEN USE THE EXISTING EXTENDED WARRANTY TO FIX MY CAR. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS VERY ANNOYING.

2010 ELANTRA HAS 37,000 MILES. I'VE HAD THREE EPISODES (ONE WITH MY 16 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER DRIVING) WHERE THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEED ON CITY STREET. NO PRIOR INCIDENT KNOWN TO CREATE THE CONDITION. THUS FAR, ONLY WAY TO FIX PROBLEM IS TO TURN CAR OFF AND RESTART. NOT VERY SAFE. LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED I HAD STRUGGLE TO DRIVE THE CAR INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT TO SAFELY TURN IT OFF AND RESTART.

RUBBER COUPLING FAILURE IN THE MOTOR DRIVEN POWER STEERING (MDPS) ASSEMBLY A $2 PART WITH A $350 LABOR BILL. SAFETY INSPECTION STATION SAYS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHICH MAY RESULT IN FAILURE TO PASS INSPECTION. HYUNDAI NEVERTHELESS MAINTAINS THAT IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE (IN AN OBVIOUS ATTEMPT TO PREVENT A RECALL). THE PART HAS FAILED JUST BEYOND WARRANTY COVERAGE. I'M SOLICITING GUIDANCE ON HOW TO COVER REPAIR COSTS FOR A POORLY DESIGNED PART THAT SHOULD BE UNDER RECALL AND COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

RECALL STEERING IS CLICKING AND CONTROL OF CAR IS HARD DURING LOW SPEED AND HIGH SPEED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED UNCONTROLLABLY AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND AIR BAG WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V100000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

IN 2016 I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR "STICKY" STEERING, IN WHICH THE DEALER REPLACED BUSHINGS IN THE STEERING COLUMN. ON 5/19/2018, WHILE DRIVING FORWARD AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND MY EPS LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON BUT IT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. AFTER HAVING A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT, WAS INFORMED THEY COULDN'T DIAGNOSE IT BECAUSE HYUNDAI HAS PROPRIETARY CODES ON THEIR EPS AND ABS SYSTEMS THAT DOESN'T ALLOW THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, FORCING ME TO HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. NOT HAVING THE FUNDS TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED 20 MILES TO THE NEAREST DEALER, I DROVE MY CAR WITH NO POWER STEERING TO THE DEALER. THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY CAR HAS 84,000 MILES AND NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. THEY CAN NOT TELL ME THE REASON THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN HAS TO BE REPLACED BUT THAT IT DOES AT MY COST OF $2,500! I FOUND THE RECALL OF THE EPS BUT THAT IS ONLY REPAIRED WITH A PART, NOT THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE FOUND ONLINE HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE WITH LOW MILEAGE ELENTRAS HAVING TO HAVE THEIR ENTIRE STEERING COLUMNS REPLACED AT THEIR COST. HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT PUTTING THEIR CUSTOMERS IN DANGER.

STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST. . NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 15V100000 IS ONLY FOR CAR BUILT BEFORE 4/30/10 AND DOESN'T INCLUDE THE ONES BUILT AFTER WHERE I'M SURE THEY DIDN'T STOP MAKING THEM DIFFERENTLY OR PUTTING DIFFERENT PARTS IN THEM. I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE ONES BUILT BEFORE MAY 1ST AND MANY OTHERS ARE AS WELL AND THIS RECALL SHOULD INCLUDE ALL 2010 CARS AND NOT JUST ONES BUILT BEFORE MAY 1ST. I HAVE THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING AND THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNITS LIGHTS ON SHOWING ITS EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE REST OF THE 2010 MODEL SO ITS ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE THAT NOT ALL OF THE MODELS BUILT IN 2010 ARE INCLUDED. MY LIGHTS STAY ON CONSTANTLY AT ANY SPEED WHAT SO EVER AND LIKE THE RECALL STATES IF POWER STEERING ASSIST IS LOST, GREATER DRIVER EFFORT WOULD BE REQUIRED TO STEER THE VEHICLE AT LOW SPEEDS, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. IF I DIE IN A CRASH BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM LIKE ANY OF THE RECALLS THEY ARE WILING TO PERFORM THEY WILL BE PAYING MILLIONS MORE THAN THE $600 RECALL THEY SHOULD BE DOING TO BEGIN WITH.

ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING GETS DISABLED WHILE DRIVING AND STEERING BECOMES VERY HARD WHEN IT HAPPENS. IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES RECENTLY AND CONCERNED WITH THE SAFELY OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. THIS SEEMS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V100000... BUT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT LISTED AS THE AFFECTED VEHICLE. IT IS HIGHLY LIKELY THAT THE ISSUE IS ALSO RELATED TO THE RECALL. NEED YOUR HELP TO RESOLVE THE SAME.

MY MODEL,MAKE AND YEAR HAVE HAD RECALLS TO RUST UNDER THE CARRIAGE AND UNDERSIDE. I HAD TO REPLACE MY ROTORS DUE TO RUST. I SE THAT YOU RECALLED IN DELAWARE AND I'LL. DUE TO SALT. I LIVE IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA AND WE HAVE SALT. I WOULD APPRECIATE IF YOU WOULD CONSIDER MY ROTORS AS INCLUDED WITH THIS RECALL. I AM ENCLOSING PICTURES AND AM HOPING MAYBE TO RECOVER SOME OF THE EXPENSE THAT I INCURRED.

ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL 4 SWAY BARS NEED BE REPLACED

20 JANUARY 2018- TODAY THE EPS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN MY CAR WHILE DRIVING. STEERING IS OKAY FOR NOW, BUT HAS BEEN CLUNKING OFF AND ON FOR SOME TIME. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A COUPLER WEARING BUT NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. MY CAR MANUFACTURE DATE IS MAY 07 2010. MAY 04 2015 I HAD 60000 SERVICE DONE. CAMPAIGN931 WAS PERFORMED AS EPS S/W CHECK AND ECU UPGRADE ONLY. MY MANUFACTURE DATE IS ONE WEEK OLDER THAN THE LAST MANUFACTURE DATE ON THE RECALL. DID THE DATE RANGE EXPAND? IS MY VEHICLE INCLUDED IN A LARGER COUNT? AM I ELIGIBLE FOR A REPLACEMENT?

FAILURE OF ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST. THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST OCCUR UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN I WAS DRIVING. I NOTICED A HEAVY STEERING WHEEL FEEL. THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU) SENSE A DISCREPANCY IN THE STEERING INPUT SIGNALS AND DISABLE THE STEERING POWER ASSIST. THE LIGHT TURNED ON. THE POWER STEERING ASSIST IS LOST, GREATER EFFORT BE REQUIRED FOR ME, WHILE I DRIVE, TO STEER THE VEHICLE INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

The contact owns a 2010 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle experienced a loss of power steering assist. Additionally, the EPS warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed as a module and steering motor sensor failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

DOOR HANDLE DEFECTIVE. MIRROR DEFECTIVE

IN MY STEERING WHEEL IT MAKES A CLUNKING NOISE. I BROUGHT IT INTO A SERVICE STATION AND THEY TOLD ME IT NEEDED A FLEXIBLE COUPLING GROMT. I DIDN'T DO THIS IT IS ALL THE WAY DOWN IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THEY TOLD ME IT SHOULD BE A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS NOTHING I DID. IT DOES THE NOISE WHEN I AM SITTING STILL. IF YOU TURN THE WHEEL IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS CATCHING ON SOMETHING.
