Details

What's wrong: A poor connection within the vehicle's wiring harness may result in a reduction of steering assist from the vehicle's motor driven power steering system or the inability to move the vehicle's shifter from the park position.

Why it matters: The reduction of power steering assist can increase the steering effort needed, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Hyundai notified dealers to suspend sales of affected sonata vehicles and has published recall bulletin 14-01-024 providing a service procedure to repair the affected vehicles. On June 7, 2014 Hyundai began to contact the affected retail customers.
