Front Air Bag Sensor Control problems of the 2008 Hyundai Accent

I purchased a car in colorado spring in 2008(my state of record) and currently I live in germany working for the us army. My airbag drivers¿ seat sensor doesn¿t function properly, because the sensor shows red and the car wasn¿t even five years old when the system malfunctions. I contacted the Hyundai dealership in amberg, bayern, germany and scheduled an appointment. They tested the airbag system which I already knew it, but they were not able to pin point the location of airbag sensor that was showing error on driver¿s side. The problem is they cannot even locate the part of the system on Hyundai factory catalog with the computer data base. The Hyundai specification for the us or european car airbag system shouldn¿t be different under consumer protection law. The company is concerns about the transmission & pollution and provides warranty; but seat belts or airbag system it¿s not even included in the manual.

The contact owns a 2008 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated that the passenger air bag would not engage when the passenger seat was occupied while driving 5 mph and up. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the passenger seat cushing was replaced but to no avail. In addition, the failure was also occurring with the driver side air bag. The dealer replaced the driver side seat belt buckle but was unable to locate a failure within the passenger air bag. The dealer test drove the vehicle with the passenger seat occupied. The passenger air bag on light was illuminated therefore, the dealer advised the contact that they were unable to make repairs to the passenger air bag. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 22,000 and the current mileage was 22,730.
