The plastic steering coupler has broken and is causing a clunking noise in the steering column. this is the same part that was recalled on the sonata and elantra but it is not covered under warranty because it is a veloster. the vehicle had just 50,000 miles and the part has failed. the dealer knew exactly what the problem was and said this was a common issue
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 hyundai veloster. while driving 70 mph, the steering wheel began to vibrate and became difficult to turn. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where they balanced the front driver and passenger tires; however, the failure continued. the contact called greenway hyundai orlando (located at 4110 w colonial dr, orlando, fl 32808, (407) 578-5337) and informed them of the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 77,300.
Known mdps rubber coupler failure. steering has a clunk in it when wheel is turned left or right. there is a tbs out for other hyundai's having this problem, but not the 2013 veloster.

Steering wheel making clunking noises when it is turned and messed up clocks ring causing the vehicles airbag light to turn on
Steering coupler problem. same issue on the elantra and sonata have been recalled, but not on the veloster. i have read of many people having the issue with the coupler on their veloster. please help get this recalled.
While driving, my steering wheel will begin to shake. this has been occurring frequently, during moments while i've driven straight and have turned. regardless of the position of my wheel, it has increasingly began to shake, as if the wheel is out of place. the wheel has become loose. i visited a hyundai dealership, and they identified the issue, relating it to a small, plastic part in the wheel. the dealership told me that hyundai issued recalls for this exact part in other hyundai vehicles, just not the veloster. it is the same part in other hyundai vehicles, one that has been recalled in those makes and models, but hyundai has yet to issue a recall for this exact part in the veloster models. this issue has made it increasingly dangerous to drive, as the dealership verbally told me that eventually, the steering will may disconnect from the vehicle.
2013 hyundai veloster non turbo 39,000 miles catalytic converter failure and engine failure while driving. while driving the vehicle on a rural road, the engine shut down and the car lost power. i noticed smoke from the exhaust when the engine shut down. i was able to pull the vehicle to the side of the road. vehicle was towed to dealer where it was found the catalytic converter had failed. it was noted that the engine had a loud ticking sound that it did not have prior to the catalytic converter failure. the engine is going to be replaced with cost share from hyundai. this is not a unique issue and has been recalled for the same exact same issue in the kia soul with the 1.6l engine. this issue should be addressed in full by the manufacturer.
This has actually happened multiple times, each time when turning.the first time was turning left out of a parking lot, my car refused to accelerate, i had to put it into neutral and then back into drive, it finally started driving. the second time, was driving and turned left into an intersection and it just stopped. i had to turn it off and then on again before it would move. i am lucky no one was behind me. the 3rd time i was not alone in the car and again i turned left into an intersection and it just stopped. emergency blinkers on and again, i had to turn off the car and turn it on again for it it move. the most recent was this morning when i turned right and like before, it just wouldn't move. i had to turn emergency blinkers on, and turn off and turn on car again. living in a busy city with people that are not paying attention all the time, this is really starting to be worrisome.
My steering wheel shakes continuously while driving and when stationary the steering wheel makes the same noises while shaking but the tires are not turning with it. has been happening a long time now.
Steering column "clunks" when turning. this appears to be a known problem with hyundai models and is a result of a coupler? elantra models are covered under warranty why not veloster?
The rubber steering bushing failed, same part that has a recall on sonata and elantra hyundai models. the part failed while driving on a highway
My 2013 veloster has 49,000 miles and it appears the rubber fitting inside the steering wheel has deteriorated. the wheel shakes and shudders violently. i'm unhappy that hyundai has allowed owners of elantras to have their vehicles repaired under a service bulletin, but velosters apparently do not qualify?
My steering wheel makes a clicking noise when turning or shifting the wheel from side to side. the steering wheel isn't tightly secured. in addition, the buttons on the steering wheel for voice control, etc. no longer works.
The steering wheel makes a loud clicking noise when you turn it. it does it with the car on or off. it also shakes a lot more than it should ever since it started making the noise.
Deering wheel shake while driving. took it into the car dealer where it was bought was told was not covered by warranty had to pay repair $435.47
On this model we are experiencing a violent shake in the steering wheel. the shake starts when the car reaches around 40 mph. there is a lot of play in the steering wheel. i had my mechanic inspect the issue and as soon as he sat down a moved the steering left and right he knew what the issue was. he said the problem is a plastic bushing located in the steering column. he said that this is happening a lot in hyundai cars including the sonata. he has already replaced 4 in last couple of months and it seems to be happening right after the warranty expires. i am 10k miles over my 60k warranty and hyundai said there is nothing they can do. it is now going to cost me around $400 to replace a $3 part. i looked online and this issue seems to be a regular complaint with numerous complaints online stating the same issue. i have been notified by my mechanic that if that plastic bushing wears out anymore and the plastic "teeth" on the bushing wear out anymore that we could lose the ability to steer the vehicle. we cannot even drive the car on the highway because the steering shakes so violently. we noticed the issue happening about a month ago and it has just gotten worse since. i'm currently having the issue repaired by my mechanic because hyundai will not warranty the issue as they state they have never heard of this issue which i find hard to believe because i typed it in google and found more cases on this issue than i can count.
After approximately 78000 miles the steering wheel began making a clicking sound when turning left or right. the problem stems from a plastic piece that needs replacing but the cost is over $300.00 due to the entire steering wheel assembly has to be removed. hyundai has issued a recall for the elantra's for the very same thing but not the veloster. 1st major concern with vehicle but not pleased that hyundia wont own up to this brand problem. my cousin has a 2-door genesis and the same thing has happened to him at 30k miles.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 hyundai veloster. while stationary and driving various speeds, the steering wheel shook violently. doral hyundai in doral, florida was made aware of the failure and stated that the steering wheel coupling was faulty. the dealer stated that the failure was known to be an issue, but was not included in a recall. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. the failure mileage was approximately 123,000.
Auto was stopped at a red light. when light turn green i pressed gas pedal auto did not move. all lights on dash board turned on, steering wheel locked ,the auto transmission lever locked, ignition locked and brakes locked. screen did not show what position if auto was on neutral, parked etc., some guys helped me push car to side of a street. after 4-5 minutes or so i was able to put my car in neutral and then after 5 or 6 minutes ignition unlocked and i was able to turn auto off.
1) steering wheel remote controls for radio & phone have been intermittent since original purchase; 2) air conditioning system does not completely restrict outside/engine warm air coming into cabin when not using a/c, for instance when windows down; 3) clock does not work consistently (it only recently just started working all by itself.
The problem initially started with an errant tire pressure warning when in reality i had a faulty wheel speed sensor (right front). the tire warning light would clear when the ignition was turned off then back on but the problem would persist and progressed to the electronic steering disabling (no steering), the speed controls not functioning (no speedometer or cruise control), the traction control disabling (no traction control), and most worrisome is that the built in keyless ignition safety systems were disabled. this meant that the keyless ignition button (postioned 2 inches from the gear shift lever!) would and did turn the car off if inadvertatnly bumped. i down shifted on the freeway from 6th to 5th at approximately 65 mph and bumped the button completely shutting off the entire car. 65 mph and no control is horribly dangerous. the design is inherently flawed if a wheel speed sensor can disable the entire car at freeway speeds.
At interstate speeds (60 mph and above),the vehicle's steering becomes unexpectedly heavy, and it seemingly takes an unusual (and possibly, momentarily alarming) amount of steering effort to keep the vehicle "centered" on the road. *tr
Vehicle slips out of gear often. dealership cannot duplicate problem, and one dealer dismissed my complaint. happens after accelerating from a stop when shifting from 1-2 but has happened when shifting 2-3 and it slips out and engine revs, disengaged from wheels (as if in neutral). this is when using it in normal mode, not sport or manual shift. there are numerous other complaints online in various forums (not yet on nhsta site it seems) this is very unsafe in traffic as the driver must stop accelerating, shift car into n and then back to drive to get it to work again.
My daughter was driving at a low rate of speed and preparing to make a left turn on surface streets. the steering wheel locked in place and she was able to stop the car. she kept the car running and continued to attempt to turn the steering wheel. after approximately 60 seconds of this activity the steering wheel returned to normal operation. *js
When i entered the car and turned it on the steering wheel was locked . the engine was running and i could put it in gear but the steering would not turn. after i restarted the car a couple of times the problem was corrected but i am worried this will happen while driving and might cause a crash. this problem was repeated in 2 different occasions. another issue that happened twice was that i would put the car in reverse and it would not move. same issue was resolved . if this car is faulty and from the complaints i see that it is .. there must be something done about it! *tr
When driving the vehicle the back wants to step out of line when going over bumps, this is more pronounced when going around a curve. also when the vehicle hits a patch of snow, during the transition on to the snow and off the car feels like the ends want to switch places. if one rear tire transitions onto snow or ice the entire rear of the car wants to travel that direction, it also does this when crossing asphalt patches. it is more pronounced on roads with vertical grooving in the concrete. there have been time when in light snow conditions i have had to go about 35-40 mph just to keep the car straight and in my lane. by doing so i became a rolling roadblock, as the other traffic did not have the same issue as i did. i did go through a bbb case with the vehicle, but neither time were the road conditions conducive to this issue, and per hyundai everything is set to factory specs(which i do not doubt). there is an inherent design flaw with the rear suspension of this vehicle and if something is not done, lives may be lost. *tr
As i was driving on the freeway, traveling down an interchange to another freeway, i depressed the gas pedal. once i completely let off the gas, i started to apply the brakes. just as i started to steer into the turn, the steering wheel locked up and i removed my foot from the brake pedal. the car started accelerating and braking on its own, without my application of any pedals. the wheels locked up without me applying the brakes. i was put into a four wheel slide where i was almost ran into an embankment. the wheels then unlocked prior to the possible impact and the vehicle started accelerating and braking again on its own. during this entire time, my steering wheel was still locked up. i was able to put my car in neutral and the car headed to the side of the freeway. the steering wheel was still locked up when i put the vehicle into the neutral position. the convulsions (random braking and accelerating) stopped once i put the car into neutral. with the car still unable to be controlled and traveling on the side of the freeway, i shut off the vehicle. once the vehicle was restarted, the random braking and accelerating ceased and the steering wheel was no longer locked up. this could have ended very badly, not only for myself, but for others who may have been on the road at the time. *tr
When driving the steering does not stay straight. when driving over a bump the steering is knocked off by a few degrees it does not straighten out again (for eg if it is knocked to 5 deg it won't go back to 0, instead it will settle on 1 or 2 degrees). this means a minor lapse in concentration could result in the car drifting into another lane. *tr
