1 Sensor Occupant Classification problem

Failure Date: 08/15/2022

Airbag light came on while driving. Took the car to the dealer and the dealer noted pods mat defect. Dealer recommended replacing mat and unit. As the vehicle warranty for 5 years just expired, the burden for repairs is unfairly falling on me. I contacted Hyundai and they told me that the warranty expired and they cannot cover the cost for the fix. This is very expensive (greater than $1500) and should have been covered by the manufacturer .
