About 3 months ago the seat belt light came on and has been on ever since. We took our car to our Hyundai dealer and they said that we needed a new airbag installed and it would could around $1000 for the part. They ordered it and we have to scedule an appointment to put it on. We are on a fixed income and $1000 or more is a whole lot of money that we don't have. We were wondering if there is or could possibly be a recall for this airbag problem. Looking on line at the complaints concerning this airbag problem with the 2008 Hyundai Accent we were wondering why you have not resolved this complaint with a recall. Thanks for you time.
I was driving down a busier street in town at about 35-40 miles an hour, with family in the car, when a lady in an SUV pulled out in front of me. The front of my vehicle crushed into her driver's tire area. My car was totaled and none of the airbags deployed. Thank goodness everyone had their seatbelts on, and everyone walked away from the accident.
Passenger air big light says it is off.
