Seat Belt Problems of Hyundai Azera - part 1

The air bag light came on for the front passenger seat. I took it to grayson Hyundai & they tried to get part #88840-3l500-j9 which is the latch right front buckle assembly. I was told there was no part available because my car is a 2006 & manufactures are only required to carry parts for 10 years. I was also told if the air bags worried me to trade cars. I would think the seat belt buckle for a safety feature like the air bag would have to always be available. I have owned this car since 2006, it only has 26,600 miles on it. It has always been garage kept & literally looks like a new one except I have no air bags. Also, today I was told part #88840-3l500-j9 is on a national parts list, whatever that means. Surely this has happened to someone else. I just decided to report it.
