Consumer Description
THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED WITHOUT REASON. THE TREMENDOUS FORCE AND FLYING DEBRIS CAUSED THE DRIVER TO REACT AND BRUSH THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL AGAINST THE CURB. PLASTIC PIECES WERE THROWN THROUGHOUT THE FRONT OF THE CAR. LUCKILY, THERE WERE NO INJURIES. EARLIER THAT SAME DAY THE CAR HAD BEEN SERVICED BY THE HYUNDAI DEALER FOR A RADIO ISSUE. *TR
