The dashboard srs airbag warning light went on yesterday and remained on as long as my vehicle was in motion. After turning off the engine, the warning light did not turn on again. The dealer's service technician thinks it is probably the clock spring because this is a common issue. He said to bring it in right away because the airbag will not deploy if the warning light is on. He looked up my VIN and said my vehicle does not qualify for the 15 year, unlimited mileage extended warranty for the clock spring which Hyundai issued for some vehicles. He quoted $140 just to diagnose the problem.

My vehicle was in car accident on 2/13/18, was hit while driving on the street with such a force that the car was pushed across median strip onto on coming traffic. Hitting another vehicle. Which the air bags did not deploy?.

In my Elantra 2012 the light of the airbag is on, the vehicle has not suffered accidents or strong blows, and has followed the maintenance recommended by the manufacturer (following the manual), (95k miles). The dealer says that the airbag light may come on because some of the sensors are damaged; the cost of the repair can range from $ 250 up to $ 3000. With this light on, the airbags will not deploy. Hyundai has a good reputation, and safety should be included in the warranty, especially since the vast majority of Elantra owners complain about the same problem. (googling). The solution should be included as a recall.

The clock spring has worn after roughly 55k miles and just being out of warranty. Dealer replacement is $300 and airbags will not deploy without repair. This began after going over rough brick pavers and the light is intermittently on, probably about 80-90% of the time. As I understand it the veracruz and santa fe models had a similar issue a few year prior (11-01-052) and online searches show this is a common issue with (at least) early production elantas. While owner diy replacement is possible, it is not recommended due to srs system importance as well as lack of ability to recalibrate software.

At approx. 70,000 miles: srs airbag warning light illuminates intermittently, then progressively steady illumination while driving. Airbag light comes on after tight right-hand turns, at any speed, then may turn off again when completing a left-hand turn. Over time, light stays on for most of driving time.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that while driving and making a left turned at 5 mph, the contact crashed into another vehicle and the air bag failed to deploy but the passenger side air did and as a result the contact sustained neck, back, right ankle, left knee and left ring finger injuries that required medical attention.

Driver attempting to brake but the brake system failed and hit another car, also upon impact the airbags did not deployed to protect the driver considering how severely the front area of the car were damaged. 2 days prior to the accident, car was not starting, was jumped- start and vehicle was brought to Hyundai service and they did not see anything wrong.

My 2012 Hyundai Elantra was hit in what I believe is known as the b-pillar on the passenger side (the center column between the front and rear doors). I am uncertain how fast the other vehicle was going but it was fast enough to do approximately $6000 worth of damage, and I suffered a head and back injury. Thankfully I did not have any passengers. None of the airbags deployed. I normally have both of my children in the rear seat but they were not with me at the time of the accident. I have been given several explanations as to why the side curtain airbags did not deploy, none of which make sense to me. I understand that airbags themselves can cause harm and they are designed only to deploy when needed. With that being said, the impact point on my vehicle seems to be at exactly the point of the sensor in that pillar (according to the illustration in my owner's manual). I recognize that my car can sense whether I have a front seat passenger, but I am not aware of a sensor being in the rear seat. I worry about what the result would have been if one of my children had been in that rear seat. My vehicle was deemed unsafe to drive so I had to leave it at a body shop the day after the accident. I am unable to transport it to the dealership for inspection and the dealership tells me they are unable to inspect it at the body shop. They tell me to bring it in for inspection after the repair. The body shop tells me they have to rely on the vehicle's computer system to display a problem if there is one. At this point, I have little faith in the vehicle and am unwilling to accept a failure of the light to come on as a proof that everything is working properly. Additionally, I purchased the vehicle brand new-the exterior is red and the interior is black. I later learned that this color combination was never an option, leaving me to question the quality assurance measures in place.
