Why is my steering wheel making a clicking noise when I drive my car?

Asked by Juliette Mar 30, 2021 at 06:54 PM about the 2012 Hyundai Elantra GLS FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I've had this problem since buying her from the dealership. They said it was
power steering, but other vehicles I've been in that also have power steering do
not make this noise. What could it be, and how serious? Thanks!

My first suspect would be the clock spring for the airbag system. It moves with the steering wheel and sits right behind the steering wheel. Hope that helps! Jim
