Contacted brandon Hyundai dealer service dept they told me handles had been already replaced before and refused to repair also they lied and told me there were no further recalls for my vehicle but when I googled there are actually around 10 recalls for my vehicle and Hyundai refuses to fix or even admit there is a recall. . My control arms need replacing also.

The airbag in my car is on permanently. I researched the problem and found that there was a recall for this. It is caused by a wiring problem with the driver side seatbelt buckle under the seat. I was told that my VIN is not included in the recall. I replaced the seatbelt buckle and within a month the airbag light was back on.

Recall id# 4217 and id# 74501 for a 2003 Hyundai Tiburon deal with the drivers seat belt buckle wiring causing the air bag light to illuminate. My air bag light keeps on turning on, even after my local mechanic checked the air bag and reset the light and turned it off. I finally had a Hyundai dealership check into it and they found that it is caused by the problem described in these recalls, however my VIN does not fall into the category that these two recalls are for. This recall must be expanded to more 2003 Hyundai Tiburons as it is a known problem and I should not have to pay to have air bags that work correctly.

The seat belt wiring appears to be faulty which was suppose to be fixed in 2003 when I brought my car into the Hyundai dealership in bloomington, mn for this recall. The seat belt keeps dinging when im buckled up and driving, I noticed the air bag light also came on and hasn't come off since the seat belt dinging started. I can stop the dinging from the seat belt by moving the seat belt piece around which is located between my seat and center council. The manager at luther Hyundai referred me to the Hyundai consumer affairs and they made a report and conveyed that I should bring it back to the dealership. I spoke to the manager again at the dealership and he is saying that regardless hell have to charge me $119. 00 for a diagnostic fee. My VIN number is very close to the VIN numbers that are being recalled for this very same problem but Hyundai wont look at it without charging me. I'm getting conflicting information from Hyundai consumer affairs and manager at the Hyundai dealership. Ultimately, im concerned that if I am in a car accident and the air bag doesn't deploy it could cost me my life.

Having the same problem as most stated! seatbelt dings constantly when not buckled and air bag light on at all times. Found the recall. Took it to a dealership who said my car was not covered under the recall. If my car is having the recalled problem and is a 2003, and it is a consistent problem for others. . . It should be covered! I refuse to settle for anything less! because of this issue and Hyundai's lack of taking responsibility for their problem, I will never purchase a Hyundai again.

Clutch failed at 44,000 miles after buying car used. Service department would not fix , stated it was wear and tear. Cost $1500 to fix. Airbag light stays on, past 65,000 so service department wont fix it unless I pay for it. Hatch back latch wont work, $200 to fix that. Headlights burn out every other month. Brought car to service center because of a noise in the front of car. Said they couldnt hear anything. 2000 miles over my warrentee brought car back because it was getting worse, said it was front wheel assembly and would cost $1000 to fix. During cold weather emergency brake sticks took it in and they couldnt find anything wrong, go figure. Seats wont latch sometimes after letting someone out from the back. Is there a end to the problems that I have with this Hyundai.

My air bag light has currently been on for almost a year now at first if I wiggled the seat belt latch it would go off but now it stays on.

Since we purchased this vehicle new we have replaced the battery twice, the clutch, fly wheel, slave cylinder,three times, a coolant leak fixed, the window motor and it is currently at the repair shop. We also have had to replace all four tires and have the vehicle aligned. The air bag light is also on at this time. The thing that makes me angry is that a service technician has seen or vehicle twice and said our vehicle was fine. So, why did the clutch go out 10 days later?.

Air bag light comes on intermittently during vehicle operation. Brought vehicle to dealer without results. I am still fighting with them to look into this matter especially after reading all the complaints filed concerning air bag malfunctions. I am concerned for my safety and the safety of my family. Something must be done Hyundai must be held accountable for their negligence.
