There is a split across my dash were the air big is I call the main office and I was told that they will not fix it. My concern is my family safety.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 04/09/2017

My car went airborne when I hit a railroad crossing with a steep drop off, landed in a ditch and flipped several times end over end, landing upside down. I was airlifted to an area hospital. Only 1 of the 6 airbags deployed. I lost feeling in the side of my face where my head broke the driver's side window and almost bled out. I now have seizures and was recently fired from my job due to having 2 seizures at work. I have only worked part time in the last 2 years. If the air bags had deployed, I would've walked away uninjured. I was also trapped when my hand went through the top window. I was left hanging and had to hold my face with my free hand to stop the bleeding until help arrived. If top airbags would've deployed, my hand wouldn't have been caught under the vehicle. I expected all 6 airbags to work when I bought this vehicle. The impact of the crash should've made all these airbags deploy. The vehicle was completely totaled.

5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/09/2016

Airbag I brought my car in to have the airbag and dash checked by Hyundai dealer in west palm beach florida. The dash around my airbag has cracked in a perfect line at the air bag location photo attached. They refused to check the airbag. However they contacted Hyundai and asked for dash replacement. Hyundai was willing to pay for the dash part but not any labor to install new dash or to check my airbag to make sure it will not go off. I am asking for help to get my airbag checked and also have the dash removed and replaced by Hyundai. I am very concerned that this passenger airbag is affected by the recall. I need this checked out before an insistent happens. Please help. They also refused to put anything in writing. Phone case number 8648772.
