Hi everyone!

I'm dealing with a strange issue with the steering in my 2013 Hyundai Accent that I'm hoping someone here can help with. Occasionally, while driving at highway speeds, the steering wheel feels like it's "sticking" slightly when I try to make minor adjustments. It's like there's a brief hesitation before the wheel moves, which is pretty unsettling, especially when I'm trying to make small corrections. The dealership quoted me a ridiculous amount just to diagnose it, and local mechanics don’t seem to know what’s causing it.

Has anyone else experienced this, or have any ideas on what might be going on? I’m really trying to avoid getting ripped off if this is something that can be easily fixed.
