Car was parked 1/3/17 at night in garage. Went to start 1/4/17 and ignition key would not turn. Called two dealers and both told me NOT unusual just to pull down hard on steering wheel wiggling it a little and turn key. There was a POP and car started. The Service Manager at Troy, MI Hyundai said some newer cars are equipped with a wheel lock if wheels are turned after car is stopped. What the heck.
Hyundai USA was supportive only to the point of glad I fixed the issue. More to come.
