On some 2024 Hyundai Tucson and Santa Cruz vehicles, a circuit board inside the power steering system can short circuit. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering assist, which means the steering wheel becomes much harder to turn. Dealers will replace the power steering electric power pack at no cost to the owner.
