Consumer Description
IN 2008 I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HYUNDAI STATING MY CAR WAS BEING RECALLED DUE TO THE AIRBAG SENSOR. THE LETTER STATED ONLY THOSE CARS WHICH HAS THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED ARE AFFECTED. AT THE TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. IN 2010 THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, AND I HAD THE CAR SERVICED AT A HYUNDAI DEALER, AND THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THE LIGHT WAS ON BECAUSE OF A "BAD BATTERY". NOW A MONTH AGO THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY ARE CLAIMING IT IS THE OCS SENSOR IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THAT IS BAD. I INFORMED THEM OF THE RECALL, BUT THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF MY VEHICLE BEING PART OF THAT RECALL. I HAD CONTACTED HYUNDAI CORPORATE, AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT PARTICULAR CAMPAIGN WAS NO LONGER IN THEIR SYSTEM, SO THEY HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF MY CAR WAS PART OF THE RECALL OR NOT. HYUNDAI REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM AS MY CAR IS NOW 5K MILES OUT OF WARRANTY, AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS QUOTED ME OVER $1K TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *KB
