Seats problem #1

Vehicle in motion on highway when driver side seat back rotated forward without warning forcing driver's upper body and head toward steering wheel resulting in an extremely unsafe driving condition. Vehicle taken to Hyundai service center which recommended replacing sw assy-pwr seat motor part # 88193-3l100-k7 (information from service order). Vehicle owner reported problem to Hyundai national service center 1-800-633-5151 which informed the owner this vehicle defect was not covered under any recall.

Seats problem #2

The airbag light came on. I have taken it to the dealer twice, they have cleaned around the sensor to make the light go off twice. They said that if it comes on again, they have to replace the entire passenger side seat. Dm scan code: b1448. They told me that if I don't get it fixed, the air bags will not deploy if there is a collision.
