Consumer Description

MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON IN MY VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TODAY, AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A CLOCK SPRING PROBLEM. THEY SAID MY AIRBAG IS NOT SAFE (MAY NOT DEPLOY). THEY SAID THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL, BUT I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THE OLDER SANTA FE, VERACRUZ, SONATA AND ELANTRA ALL HAVE RECALLS FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. IT IS CLEARLY A HYUNDAI PROBLEM AND THEY NEED TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE LATER MODEL VEHICLES (MINE IS A 2014).
