Hyundai Elantra 2009 SteeringHyundai Elantra 2009 Steering Review #10616422 HYUNDAI ELANTRA 2009 car safety problem was reported on July 08, 2014.HYUNDAI ELANTRA 2009, manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company had a problem with STEERING . in the last 2 weeks, the eps light has come on my dashboard 3 times, accompanied by the power steering failing. the first time it happened, i was in the middle of an intersection, turning left, and my power steering failed. the second time i was in my driveway, luckily not yet pulled out into the busy street on which i live. the third time was just today on the highway, and as i was going 65 mph, the power steering failed. the only way i've found to "fix" it is to turn off my car and start it again. had i been going over the bridge near my house where there is no shoulder to pull onto where i could restart my engine, today i would have been unable to steer around the curves of the highway. this is not just a minor problem. this is a safety liability on the part of the manufacturer and needs to be addressed. i have read about many other people with the same car having this issue and hyundai doing nothing about it. so far, only a handful of 2015 sonatas have been recalled for the exact same issue, but nothing has been done about the elantras. i have contacted hyundai regarding this, and they say that my vin is not part of a recall, even though it clearly has the same problem as the recalled sonatas occurring repeatedly, and therefore i must absorb the cost of whatever it will take to remedy this problem. again, this is a liability on hyundai's part, and they should be responsible for fixing it at no cost to the consumer. thank you for your time..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 78000 miles.

I also own and drive a Hyundai. thanks Bill Finn I had a problem with stability control in a 2010 AWD hyundai Tuscon in windy conditions. I was driving on a straight stretch of road in New Mexico and with gusts of wind the car tilted onto the 2 right wheels. I was so shaken I pulled off the 2010 Santa Fe Limited alternator failed within 2000 km of new. Are there any service bulletins out on this? I have a 2006 Sonata 2.4 which frequently fails to start on first attempt and appears to be getting more frequent. In addition the fule consumption averages about 13 l/100km. Low revs are sometimes uneven and 1st gear pull off shudder is frequentl hyundai 3500 generator ,no gas going to sparkplug sounds like clutch, i believe you need to change it!
