Dashboard is literally disintegrating into many small pieces. The area over the passenger airbag will come at the passenger as plastic shrapnel. It will also probably affect the force the bag has when inflated. This issue is from using substandard materials.

2 Air Bag problem of the 2012 Hyundai Veracruz

Failure Date: 09/26/2021

On September 26, 2021 the airbag indicator light in my 2012 Hyundai Veracruz remained illuminated upon starting the vehicle. Around a day later, the airbag light stopped illuminating. Around a month later, I received a letter from Hyundai regarding a warranty extension to cover the clock spring, so I contacted my local Hyundai dealership. Tracy Hyundai indicated that the clock spring is fine, however there is a faulty passenger side occupant sensor. The fault code cleared; however this creates a safety issue as it is unknown if the front passenger airbags would deploy in the event of an accident. Tracy Hyundai indicated that Hyundai corporation no longer makes this part so there is no available resolution. I contacted Hyundai corporation, however they could not assist and referred me to contact the dealership.

4 Air Bag problem of the 2008 Hyundai Veracruz

Failure Date: 06/30/2020

The esc light goes on and off when I am driving. In addition, the safety seat belt light is on. I feel these are tied to teh recall on this made and model, however, when the dealer runs my VIN, it is not on the list. I feel this is in error especially when I read the safety recall info on recall #13v113000, 09v122000, and 11v472000. I am not sure why my vehicle is not on the list when the VIN is run against the database since the description and symptoms are described in these known recalls. How do I get my VIN properly included in these recalls. The dealer refuses to work on it as part of the recall unless it is in the database. These are safety issues.

8 Air Bag problem of the 2008 Hyundai Veracruz

Failure Date: 09/01/2015

Esc light comes on and off. This is repetitive problem. It looks like Hyundai has no idea how to fix. . If you google Veracruz esc light, you will see tons of posts complaining about this. . Air-bag sign is on intermittently after the recall. Hyundai refuses to repair because when they take the car into the garage, the light is off(unable to read the code).

9 Air Bag problem of the 2008 Hyundai Veracruz

Failure Date: 10/30/2014

My airbag and esc lights went off and I took the car to dealership. They are saying that both the control modules (abs, airbag) need to be replaced and the parts alone cost around $2600. The car is out of warranty because of 5 year period (bought in sept 2008) even though the mileage is less than 60k. There were multiple recalls on this vehicle and it seems like these modules should not be failing for 50k miles. I have heard multiple people complaining about the issue and I think Hyundai should get the control modules replaced.
