Seat Belt problem

My 2016 Hyundai Genesis started flashing a code stating “check psb” only a week after buying the car. Psb means pre-active seat belt. The seat belts somehow interlink with the fuel pump. My car has a faulty fuel pump module, causing the psb warning to flash, even when the vehicle is in motion. It also causes a loud humming coming from the rear of my car, as I accelerate. I’ve done research, and it says many owners of the same vehicle report the faulty fuel pump module as the culprit, causing the check psb. As well as many owners online stating their vehicle has done the same as mine. There is active recalls on the newer years for this issue, such as the 2023. When the same issue is reported multiple times on the 2016s too, there should be a recall. This is a common issue, & quite frankly a dangerous one. If the fuel pump module is miscommunicating with the seat belts, that could cause them to not react in a collision. I have my vehicle scheduled to be serviced in a few days.
