My passenger side airbag light is on.
I was driving from work and my airbag light come on so I got it tested and they said it was my passenger seat is it safe to drive my car.
I just bought this car a few days ago, the airbag light was on all the time even before I purchased, the ex-owner got the car from his grand-MA as a gift and he said it had been like that since he started to drive, I searched online to find out about the problem, noticed that it's a common problem faced by many hyudai Elantra owners.
I purchased a car from al at island auto sales, (631) 569-5050, 330 east main street, suite b, patchogue, NY 11772. 1-air bag light was/is on at all the time. 2-car was out of alignment/worn inside tires all times. 3-car transmission all of the sudden slows and then jumps, very frequently, while driving al said he will fix the issues. He aligned the car, but is still pulling to the side. I took it to a mechanic shop and he said: "tires are worn out from inside and can cause serious damage. Airbag speed detection sensor is missing all together and can be very dangerous. I have contacted al, via phone, email and fax, and asked him to correct the two issues. He is not responding. That is why I am contacting you for help. I have a record of my communications with island auto sales.
Srs air bag light on. Gurnee Hyundai and Hyundai USA 1(800)633-5151 said this does not fall under NHTSA campaign id : 11v143000 because my car is a GLS not an se. Srs is always on and dealer said sensor was contaminated just like the campaign stated could happen on 2009 Elantras. Hyundai wants over $2000 to replace this sensor.
Takata recall about 2 months ago or 3 months ago my air bag light came on when I started the car and never went off the passenger air bag light that says off gos out when someone sit in the passenger seat but the light on the dash stays on I replaced the battery a month later because someone said to try that it did not work I looked up recalls and you do have them for 2009 Elantras only for certain manufacturers months I belive my vehicle was affected too.
The light of the airbag used to turn on and off constantly I have taken it to the mechanic and finds no problem. Now the car has a week with the air bag light on. I haven't had any colitions.
Airbag light on dash stays illuminated. This is a safety issue many people are having and it should be a recall.
In September 2017 my vehicle's airbag light came on (driver's side) and I called the dealership, made an appointment, and whatever they did corrected the problem until yesterday when the sensor flickered on and off during the day and eventually stayed on. I was told by the dealership if it came on again I would require a new drivers front impact sensor, which is quite costly. I did notice when it came on this second time I had been adjusting my seat prior to starting the car. In an attempt to see if this was something I could correct myself (online) I noticed a couple of blogs that mentioned NHTSA.
The indicator light for air bags came on and I have no idea what might have caused it as my wife and I are very careful with our assets. . . We are both 75.
I took my vehicle to wilson Hyundai for the recalls to be corrected. I was also having issues with an air bag light and a clicking noise in the steering wheel. I received a call telling me my steering column needed to be replaced because there was a short in the sensors to a module. I was then told that the sensor to my passenger seat had malfunctioned and that I needed to replace the entire bottom portion of the seat. They were wanting to charge me over $6,000. 00 to repair these two issues. There are recalls on both of these issues: NHTSA 15v100000 addresses issues with the steering and the fix does not include or require the replacement of the entire steering column. The solution for this recall is to reprogram the computer. This does not address the clicking noise in the column where a gear/cog disintegrates over time. . . . A $12. 00 part is estimated to cost over $500 in labor to replace. The issue with the air bag malfunctioning is addressed in 2009 Hyundai Elantra air bags: frontal: sensor/ control module NHTSA campaign #11v143000. I am being told that this issue is only for certain 2007-2009 Elantras manufactured before Nov 1, 2008. My vehicle was manufactured April 30, 2009 so they dont want to fix the problem even though it is the exact same problem addressed in recall. I would greatly appreciate it if you would look into this matter and expand the manufacturing date to address those of us who own a 2009 manufactured after November 1, 2008 Hyundai Elantras whose air bags are malfunctioning.
The contact owns a 2009 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 15 mph, the air bag warning indicator illuminated continuously. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the front passenger's side seat sensor would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
Driving on highway 65 mph, power steering went out. When I reached my destination which was another 20 miles away I researched and a bit and when I turned car back on a few hours later it was working again. I received a recall letter about it almost a year later. Why did I just receive that? took to dealership for that and three other recalls (two I was not aware of. The stop light I did get a letter about, however the airbag light has been on for months and I see by reading these other complaints that there shuld be a recall about that. Dealership tells me the whole sterring mechanism is bad and are replacing this week. The high profile tires have been a nightmare since I bought the vehicle, expensive for that sized car and don't last more than 30k miles. I don't think the tire issue has anything to do with the branding. After reading all these complants, I most likely will not buy from Hyundai again. The airbag issue is an expensive fix, a potential safety hazard and should be rectified by Hyundai. Stand behind your product, simple ethical expectation.
I was driving back home and approaching a stop when my srs airbag light came on, indicating malfunction of airbag. No airbags were deployed, but light would not go away. Brought it into authorized Hyundai service center, and they stated right front seat track sensors have failed. The cost for replacing this part is extremely expensive, and driving with this light on I think would be a safety hazard if I got into a car accident. I have seen other reports and complaints of other owners having similar problem. Can you please investigate. Thank you.
