Failure Date: 09/20/2017

Airbag indicator icon stayed lit rather than going out after a few seconds when car was started. Problem identified by dealership as air bag needs to be replaced. The dealership will have had my car more than 2 months because there are no airbag mechanisms in the us and we are waiting for more to be produced. The likely reason for this delay is that more have been used than planned, and this should be a recall issue if so many needed replacement.

14 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2010 Hyundai Tucson

Failure Date: 10/21/2014

I was just driving normal speed and my airbag light came on and stayed on. I went to the dealership and informed me my driver side airbag clock spring is faulty. They are saying it isn't under my warranty, when I bought the vehicle brand new in 2010 I was told I had a bumper to bumper warranty for the first 10 years or 100,000 miles whichever came first. Why should I have to pay for the dx testing and the clock spring and installation for a part that is out of my control of being faulty, that isn't fair and the warranty you are saying is very misleading.

19 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2006 Hyundai Tucson

Failure Date: 04/09/2013

Air bag light illuminated, cause is front passenger seat weight sensor, this means the entire seat must be replaced, I don't feel that with the mileage as low as it is, I should pay for this repair, why hasn't the government agency (NHTSA) issued a recall on this very common occurrence? my mechanic told me he has replaced many (over 100). At great expense to the owners. Defective saftey parts for a car like this, out of warranty because of age, not mileage, should be on the manufacturer.

21 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2006 Hyundai Tucson

Failure Date: 01/01/2008

I bought my 2006 Hyundai Tucson when it was 1 yr old and had 25,000 miles on it. It is now March 2014 and the car is 7-8 yrs old and only has a total of 55,000 miles on it. It has only been driven gently and in good driving conditions and rarely a pothole has it hit. I don't remember the exact time things started, maybe a year after I bought it, but I had problems with my esc light coming on and the tms coming on - they would go on and off randomly and I eventually got them fixed - I think those were under warranty, not sure. Back in early 2013 my air bag light came on. This really stressed me out - found money to borrow. I took it in and asked if there was a recall and they told me it had expired. I paid $1700 to have that fixed. I see recalls don't expire - do I have a case against them to get my money back? also, now my esc light is starting to come on again. Some times 5 mins or so after starting the car and sometime upon turning on the headlights. I am so sick and tired of all these electrical problems on a vehicle that only has 55,000 miles on it. It is not cheap to fix regardless of the cars age, there is little miles on it. Do I have any recourse with these issues? I am on fixed income and cannot pay another dime towards fixing these repetitive warning198088 light issues. These cars are stealing from us, what should be working to begin with. . . Thanks - hope you have good news for me. Especially about refunding the $1700. If I have to pay for the esc it won't get fixed, it will only break again.
