    Steering · Unknown Or Other

    Steering is quite tight at times on slow turns; however, when full speed 0-70, seems the power steering is cutting off and on and sticking. Going around a curve causes the steering to tighten up and it takes massive effort to bring it back center, and sometimes this causes you to over correct which is a safety issue. It's like a sticking sensation in the wheel, pulling. Tires are good, alignment is amazing. None of…

    Steering · Unknown Or Other

    After two weeks of consistent steering wheel locking up and not being able to turn key in the ignition i brought the car into the dealership on june 6, 2017. I also turned the wheel counterclockwise and did as the manual instructed. It took several attempts, frusteration and being stranded at work several times and it finally unlocked. My husband had a difficult time unlocking the steering wheel as well. When i…

    My vehicle did not come with a spare tire, but with something called a "tire mobility kit" which is used to inflat a flat tire (maybe). In anticipation of the need to use this gadget, i have read the instructions and came across this item: "warning: sealant is an irritant to skin, eyes and respiratory passages. Overexposure may cause central nervous system and kidney effects......do not breathe vapor or…

    When parking our car, the key got stuck in the ignition switch and could not be removed. Obviously, we could not leave the car in a parking lot with the key in the ignition. I looked at a video on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4t6ydzkb5g and this guy's video saved the day. This obviously has happened for other people and seems to be an intermittent problem. We will be taking this to the dealer to fix,…

    On july 6, 2016 we purchased a 2016 elantra limited. We do like the car. However, in less than 2 months, just over 2400 miles the new 2016 has the same problem as a 2013 elantra that we used to have. We would press the brake, then press the push start button. Nothing happened, it didn?t even try to crank. It was as if the brake and start button had never been depressed. The car would not start. It was dead as a door…
