Consumer Description

PROBLEM APPEARS CLOSER TO RECENT RECALL OF HUNDAI SONATA CARS W/ STEERING WHEEL BAGS. WHILE TRAVELING DOWN BUSY 4-LANE HIGHWAY, SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON ASSOCIATED WITH SEAT AND AIRBAGS. ROSWELL INFINITI , ROSWELL, GA HAD TO COMPLETELY TEAR APART STEERING WHEEL COLUMN, WORK ON AIRBAGS, SENSORS, AND OTHER ITEMS. I HAD JUST PURCHASED VEHICLE FROM ANOTHER DEALER, BUT HAS ONLY A LITTLE OVER 105,000 MILES. DID NOT EXPECT ALMOST $4,000 IN REPAIRS DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I THINK IT IS A PROBLEM ASSOCIATED WITH OTHER JAPANESE MODELS AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. WHEN LIGHT CAME ON I WAS VERY SCARED BECAUSE I WASN'T SURE WHETHER I SHOULD KEEP DRIVING AND I WAS OVER 25 MILES FROM DEALERSHIP BY THAT TIME. BROUGHT IT IN NEXT DAY BUT TOOK OVER 3 DAYS TO REPAIR DUE TO PARTS, ETC.
