general problems of the 2017 Hyundai Tucson

The controls (buttons) on the right side of my steering wheel progressed from slow to respond to completely unresponsive, and then the driver airbag light started coming on. At first it was intermittent, then constant. I didn't expect those two issues to be related but did come to learn it was the clock switch. According to my Hyundai dealer, this is a known issue in several other years/models of Hyundais and they have extended those warranties, "but it hasn't reached the Tucson yet". I was told that either 1 - my airbag wouldn't deploy or 2 - it would deploy randomly when I was driving the vehicle. I spent nearly $1000 in diagnostics and repairs.

When the car is started the airbag light on the dashboard lights up. It will eventually turn off anywhere from 5-30 minutes. I scheduled an appointment with the dealer and was informed , after 10 hours, that they do not have the equipment required to conduct a diagnostic test and they don't know how long it would take to obtain equipment once they requested it. I was told it would cost me a minimum of $850. 00 to have test conducted once the equipment arrived since my car was over the 50,000 mile warranty. This cost is just for the diagnostic test. Since this is an ongoing airbag issue on numerous vehicles; I assumed this is a safety issue and would trump the warranty time frame. Please provide any type of assistance on this matter.
