1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/13/2019

My daughters were in a three car accident on 13 June 2019. They were rear ended which caused them to hit another car in the rear; no air bags deployed. They suffer from neck pains, shoulder pains, back pains, and headaches. Why install airbags if the are going to be no use during an accident?!? I'm very disappointed in Hyundai!!!.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 10/09/2014

On Thursday oct. 9. 2014 I went to my car parked in driveway to go to work. I went to turn key heard radio come on then an explosion. I went back into seat left hand forward. I did not know what was going on. I realized airbag was out in steering wheel, did not know if car was on fire, got out called 911. By divine intervention my injurys were minor burn on my arm which was cleaned up at site, my home in driveway, fire report stated noticed minor burns on face, I was not aware, upset and in shock. I went up with tow truck driver to dealership where I purchased car brand new only year old, under 11000 miles on it. I demanded a car to use, I was crying at dealership. Manufacture tried to say it was an insurance problem which it is not, car blew up in my face when I started it. Dealership came thru and has let me use a car for time being. I am trying to deal with manufacture and it is not easy. I do not want car back and I want them to pay it off. They agreed to outside inspector and now I find out I will not be aloud report. So now I demanded that I hire someone and we all go investigate car at same time, they agreed, still a work in progress at this moment in time, I do not know what type airbags they use but I have a right to know exactly what went wrong and for other people. I am lucky to be able to tell this story,.

Failure Date: 05/15/2013

On 5/15/2013 my daughter was involved in a 1 vehicle accident on interstate 40 east in amarillo texas. She was driving a 2013 Hyundai Accent leased new in February. This was a violent crash in which the car rolled numerous times. Not one airbag deployed and the car was a total loss. Neither Hyundai nor the dealer seemed worried about the situation. I spoke with both Hyundai and amarillo Hyundai and was blown off. Safety apparently is not their priority, just the sale of an unsafe product.
