I have gone to multiple Hyundai dealerships to remedy the open recall on my vehicle. None of them are able to accomplish it due to lack of equipment. My electronic power steering recently failed after multiple attempts to accomplish the recall. The most recent attempt was at the Hundai dealership at Doug's Hyundai, 22130 Hwy 99, Edmonds, WA 98026, in 2026. Previous attempts were at Hyundai dealership at 641 Orange Dr, Vacaville, CA 95687 in 2023, United States and the hyundai dealership near Macon Georgia in 2017.

I own a 2010 Hyundai Elantra that has experienced a sudden loss of power steering assist on multiple occasions. When this happens, the steering wheel becomes very difficult to turn, especially when maneuvering at low speeds or parking. The EPS light comes on and stays illuminated. This creates a serious safety hazard, particularly when driving with children or in traffic. I am aware of Hyundai Recall 127 (the federal safety agency Campaign 15V100000), which addresses the same issue, but my VIN is not included. I am requesting that Hyundai investigate and provide the same repair remedy for vehicles outside the initial recall VIN range that are experiencing identical failures.

My dealer alledgely fixed the recall in 2021 along with 2 other recalls. At that time I had no problem with my steering. Now 2 years later my power steering went out in the middle of a turn in a very busy intersection and hasn't worked since. The dealer would not fix because they said my car was out of warranty. Hyundai USA also reviewed and denied me. On their webpage, it does not say anything about a time limit on their recall. It is a recall and not a warranty concern. Below I send 2 pics taken off their webpage. Please help me. Thank you.

My power steering just stopped working. There was a safety recall on my car. i did not receive a warning notice. On Hyundai's website i entered my vin # and it said my car was affected and would be fixed free of charge or if I had already paid I would be reimbursed. The dealership refused to honor the recall. I called several times to HyundaiUSA and finally they said my car was out of warranty. No where online did it say the recall had to be fixed before the warranty ended. They just refused me and told me to take it up to someone else. I have a 2010 Hyundai Elantra Touring. I did not cause this problem, they admit in the recall that there is a problem but are looking for a loop hole to get out of fixing it. Please help.

Power steering stopped working. I had sqeaking noises when turning the wheel.also shimmering over slightest bumps. Dealer estimate for new steering columns was about $2000.00 . I was pulling out of a parking space when it froze. After I tuned of the car it worked. However I have read many complaints that this problem continues under normal driving conditions including highways. I feel the manufacturer should be responsible for this problem.
