I bought it used with 63,000 miles around 11/8/20, everything was going good, and one day I noticed the airbag light was on. Over a the next couple of days, the light would stay on & if I turned my car off and on again, it would turn off but come back on a couple minutes later. I looked it up, and it talked about a possible issue with the airbag system or the airbag sensor. I also noticed that a lot of people had the airbag light issue with their Hyundai vehicles, mostly the Accent models.
Occupant classification system defect. My car was only 2,000 miles out of warranty and Hyundai will not cover this defect. Right passenger seat air bag sensor mat is faulty causing the air bag light to come on. I've done my research online and this is pretty common. It should be a recall and I shouldn't be having to spend $1,400 to get it fixed.
Whenever I start driving the driver side airbag light turns on and won't turn off until I turn the car off and then back on and it still turns back on when I start moving.
Airbag light came on. Got it diagnosied and appeared code b1490 (occupent classification).
