Seat Belt problem #8

I received a recall notice for 22v-354 (Hyundai recall 229) on 8/1/2022. The recall states that this is an important safety recall and Hyundai is preparing a remedy, but it’s not ready yet. It states that owners are strongly recommended to park vehicles outside and away from structures. It states that the driver/passenger seat belts can explode and project metal shrapnel into the vehicle occupant compartment. However, the dealership advised they don’t have the parts or personnel to fix it right now and they don’t have any timeline on when it can be repaired either. I need my car (that I just purchased in April 2022) to go to work every day. I don’t have other transportation options available as I drive from client to client and am self employed. I live in a high traffic area and am scared that my seat belt will kill or maim me if involved in an accident. I’m sure Hyundai wouldn’t forgive my payments until this is fixed, but they just expect me to drive an unsafe vehicle until “whenever” this can be fixed?? please require a deadline for them to fix this or forgive my loan so I can purchase another vehicle. This is not okay. We pay taxes and expect safety and regulations. Please contact me with a real solution.

Seat Belt problem #9

I was sent a letter in July regarding the current recall for the safety belt pretensioner and how it may deploy in a faulty manner and injure passengers. I received another letter today that Hyundai is "preparing to implement the safety recall remedy. " it has now been almost two months and there is still no concrete plan being reported to me. I think this is an unreasonable amount of time to be waiting for a remedy to a safety problem while I drive a car that could be potentially dangerous.

Seat Belt problem #12

I was advised of the current recall on my new 22 Elantra. I took my vehicle to the Hyundai dealership where it was purchased (cookeville) from a mere few months ago. I advised I needed the recall on the seat belts fixed. I was then told that they wouldn't be able to fix this recall for awhile (over a month) because they needed to fix the cars currently on the lot. The unsold cars that are just sitting there. Not only is this reckless, it shows a complete disregard to my safety and others that may be in the vehicle or near it if something were to happen while being driven. Mind you, I bought this car completely new from them and have zero issues up until this point. I feel that my vehicle should be given priority over a vehicle that isn't even sold. The cookeville Hyundai is prioritizing money over public safety and I will as though it should be addressed immediately.

Seat Belt problem #13

Hello, I bought a brand new Hyundai Elantra hybrid 2022. In the first month my navigation system started having trouble and would just stop working as I was driving. Which was very unpleasant experience. I would like to keep using it but it just wont work. I already went to the dealership for this issue but they were unable to resolve it. The only thing they could do was to restart the car. Please see the screenshots of errors for your review and investigation. Today, but accidentally discovered that my huydai has a recall and I was not informed about it. The issue at hand is following: "safety risk the subject vehicles are equipped with driver/passenger pyrotechnic-type seat belt pretensioners that may deploy abnormally during a crash. An abnromal pyrotechnic pretensioner deployment could cause metal fragments to enter the vehicle occupant compartment, which may result in injury to vehicleoccupants. " this is serious. I am scared to drive because my seatbelt can kill me if I get into an accident. I would like to ask you, please take care of this issue ASAP and also provide a remedy for failed notification on time which puts my life and health under risk. Thank you very much, victoria.
