2011 HYUNDAI SONATA Air Bags Problems

There was no accident .Airbag light on the dash, on the driver side, remains on at all times. The airbag indicator on the passenger side says off. Dashboard has completely cracked, both sides and the center. Unknown incidents- I don’t know of any incidents.

The contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the driver's air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with a failed air bag clock spring. The contact was informed that the driver's air bag clock spring needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the contact was informed that the repair was not covered under recall. The contact had received an unknown recall notification previously for the air bag. The contact was informed that he was nine days late for the coverage of the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact was informed that the repair was not covered under repair. The failure mileage was unknown.

To Whom It May Concern, Subject: Formal Complaint – 2011 Hyundai Sonata GLS Tail Light Meltdown / Fire Hazard Date: August 3, 2025 I am writing to formally report a serious safety issue with my 2011 Hyundai Sonata GLS, specifically concerning the tail light assembly, which has melted and poses a potential fire hazard and traffic safety risk. Approximately a year and a half ago, I noticed melting in the tail light housing and took the vehicle to a Hyundai dealership to address the issue. At that time, the car had approximately 208,000 miles. Despite the obvious manufacturing defect and safety implications, the dealership refused to repair or inspect the issue without charging a $275 inspection fee, stating the vehicle was out of warranty. I believe this to be an unfair and irresponsible business practice. Tail light assemblies should not melt under normal use, and such a defect could lead to: Electrical fires Brake light failure (increasing the risk of rear-end collisions) Potential traffic citations for inoperative brake lights Damage to other vehicles or individuals I have already notified Hyundai Motor Corporation about this issue, placing them on notice that should any damages or incidents occur as a result of this defect, they may be held liable. This is not a minor cosmetic issue but a major safety defect, and I strongly urge the NHTSA to investigate whether this is an isolated issue or part of a wider trend affecting Hyundai and Kia vehicles. If so, a safety recall may be warranted. I also intend to report this situation to the Indiana Attorney General's Office as a matter of consumer protection and product safety. I have been backwards and forwards with the Hyundai Corporation Via and Emails...... I look forward to a prompt response. Please!

Air bag light is not coming on at all.

Dashboard has large cracks all over it including where the passenger air bag is located. I am concerned about the pieces of plastic flying if the air bag deploys. Also concerned that the cracks could release the air bag at any time, even during normal driving. Dealer only suggested getting a dashboard cover, but that would negate the purpose of the air bag. My research showed that there are many other cases of the happening with Hyundai Sonata's 2011-2014.

Airbag light is on after a clock spring issue. Dealer is stating new airbag is needed for vehicle that has never had an accident. Airbag light was not on prior to clock spring malfunction. Clockspring was repaired, but airbag light remains on.

Car is overheating. Took it to a mechanic They replaced the thermostat but car is still overheating, jerking and so much more. The mechanic wants to charge more to fix it. I got a second opinion from another mechanic and after he reviewed the paperwork from the first mechanic. He searched my vin number and told me to contact this number because my vehicle is on a recall list. So I need someone to contact me about where and how we can get my vehicle fixed.

The contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated while attempting to make a right turn, the steering wheel seized, and the electrical system became inoperable. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V746000 (Engine) nor 18V137000 (Seat Belts, Air Bags). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 100,000.

Dashboard cracked passenger seat around airbag word. Before weather got very hot outside was sitting in parking lot engine off, heard a loud noise and was not able to locate anything wrong. Thought it was the windshield that has a small crack in it. Noticed nothing. Several days later saw large lines through windshield around airbag. Looked inside car to see better. Several weeks later saw smaller crack on driver side dash nearest to door area. Did have oil changed on car on 4-19-24. This happened weeks later (the cracks). Did notify repair shop (auto dealer Priority) of issue. Next appt was 5-18-24 for new tires to be put on car.

I started my car and my steering wheel airbag deployed within a few seconds and injured me. Reason for deployment unknown

Engine seized at 82000 miles stranding me in the passing lane of Interstate 10. Was nearly hit by a truck.

My car airbag light came on. I called the dealership about the remedy that was already recalled under campaign number 18V137000 because my last visit I got told by the dealership that my ACU was bad for the car and that it was going to cost me upwards of $2000 to replace and the dead was no recall on my vehicle and then called corporate and they had told me that this had been taken care of back in 2016 when I did not on the vehicle this time in the second owner and that basically they would not cover to fix this issue and that any warranty that was extended ran out when I only had purchased the vehicle in November 2020 so now they are unwilling to fix the issue because they had stated that it was already previously fixed with the previous owner and then I could either basically pay to get it fixed or they weren’t gonna do anything about it I feel my safety at risk because in the event of crash airbags will not deploy and basically that they would not fix the problem even though it is under a National recall, and my car was manufactured within the manufacturing dates of the recall I do not feel safe driving this vehicle, and I also do not feel that I have to pay for that has been nationally recalled

Dashboard cracked. Completely cracked into small pieces throughout the dashboard.

The dash cracked in many places.

My car had engine seized while driving on the road with no warning light prior nor other mechanical issues. When the engine seized, all mechanical powers are have lost power including brakes and power steering in which have almost caused a near accident at an early morning rushed hours. The vehicle's odometer reading at 120,836 and was up to date on all normal tune up performances. Other issues that have arise after purchasing the car are: warning light came on for airbag, real loud clunking sound on roof when hitting a bump on the road and engine will not start because of fuel line system issues. Cruise control had also stopped working after a year of purchased.

in July of 2022 the buttons on the steering wheel like cruise control trip/reset button as well as radio controls eventually all quit working did not become fully aware of this until I was on the interstate and was driving with the cruise control set and when I needed to turn off cruise control it wouldn't turn off by the steering wheel thankfully I know can hit the brakes and the car will shut it off however after this all happened the air bag light came on and stayed illuminated I called my dealer and they insisted that there was no recall on the CLOCK Spring in the steering wheel of my car and wanted me to pay out of pocket for an issue that they claim was non existint as well them also telling me all the recalls were taken care of when I purchased the vehicle in novemember of 2020 and im only the second owner had the car for 3 months and Hyundai stated that my vehicle had the knock sensor update and then a week later the motor went

Starting 6 months ago air bag light is on constantly. Horn stopped working, speed control doesn't work. The whole steering wheel and buttons with horn doesn't work.

Warning light for airbag continues to stay on , and cruise control does not work at all.

The contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V137000 (Seat Belts, Air Bags). The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the recall repair was performed. Recently, the contact stated that the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the warning light was cleared; however, the light returned soon after. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the vehicle had to be repaired out-of-pocket. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the vehicle was out of warranty and a case was filed. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 262,000.

Mileage: 262,000

The NHTSA has filed a Consent Order (RQ17-004) for a Engine Replacement due to safety concerns while driving the vehicle on the road, Vehicle may stall and cause / be involved in a accident. Please make this recall public so the affected vehicles can be properly repaired as the Consent Order states I have reviewed the Consent Order and I will not continue to drive this vehicle, I will not risk being involved in a accident The Hyundai dealership in Alexandria Virginia has refused to repair this recall under the Consent Order, My vehicle Vin# is [XXX] My vehicle has been at this dealership location for over 3 weeks and I was told that they were not going to perform this recall and I noted that If I pick up my vehicle and drive it away and the engine fails, stalls or stops in the middle of the highway and I survive I will have to file a lawsuit in this matter and the dealership still told me to pick up my vehicle. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact owns a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving at an undetermined speed, there was an abnormal rattling and ticking noise detected. The air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that an engine replacement was needed. The dealer requested the maintenance records but denied repair coverage due to old oil in the vehicle. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 180,000.

The airbags in my car did not deploy! I was hit so hard through my driver window that it knocked me out both speeds combined together was 110mph with me going 55mph the air bags should have went off the whole driver side back to the trunk is damaged and not even the door airbag had went off. This is a huge safety concern for myself.

I have had to replace my brake lights, sometimes, every few months. My third brake light only works intermittently. Recently, my brake lights and my door lights failed to shut off after I turned the engine off. Also, my abs light came on on the dash, but after turning the engine off and back on, that light went out. After re-starting my car and repeatedly, stepping on the brake, my lights finally shut off. I checked the internet for similar problems and found out that there had been a Hyundai recall for this issue. I phoned Hyundai customer support. They told me the recall had been repaired on my car by the dealer . Obviously, it had not. (The dealer also claimed to have corrected another recall regarding seat belts, but that too is a lie, since my seat belt dash light is on although I have never been involved in an accident) I believe that the dealer billed Hyundai, but failed to either deliberately or inadvertently failed to perform the recall work. The recall involved replacing the brake stopper pad which engages the brake light switch. Obviously, Hyundai considered this a safety issue since the brake lights are always on, so the driver behind my car never knows what I'm doing. This has also affected the interior overhead light which only intermittently goes off when I close the door, so I have to keep the light in the off position.

Aig bag light on, Horn and nearby control panel stop working. Engine noise…da da da… stater fails…

Driver air bag light stays illuminated while vehicle is operating.

A friend borrowed my car to go to the corner store to get me a couple of things while my husband was getting surgery. My friend ended up in a rollover accident after hitting a tree. All recalls were up to date on my vehicle, he stated that no airbags deployed. Now after the vehicle was rolled back over and taken to the tow yard the insurance adjuster was the first to see and the driver airbag had deployed. I was not there I cannot say when the airbag deployed however none of the curtain airbags deployed. Also my friend stated that the car accelerated just before impact he swerved to miss something in the road and ended up rolling the vehicle after hitting the tree. The car should not have been accelerating but it was like the car had a mind of its own. I thought the recall was to fix the air bags. He could have been killed.. no reason these cars are still on the road. Not to mention all of the mechanical issues. And I'm sorry to say that I'm glad my kids weren't in the car.

Air bag lights have come on. Unsure of what the exact issue is until I bring it to the shop.

The contact owned a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving at 50 MPH, another vehicle crashed into the rear end of the vehicle. The contact depressed the brake pedal and the vehicle skidded and stopped. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact was able to drive the vehicle to her residence and parked the vehicle. The contact then sought medical assistance and was informed that she had sustained a left shoulder rotator cuff tear. A police report was filed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the air bags failed to engage and did not need to be reset. The vehicle was then taken to an auto collision mechanic where it was repaired. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, another vehicle crashed into the driver's side of the vehicle. The contact was thrown to the right and to the driver's side door. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact was transported to the hospital by emergency units. The contact was informed by her orthopedist that her left shoulder rotator cuff tear was reinjured. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot. The vehicle was then towed to a second dealer Bob Johnson Kia (3817 W Henrietta Rd, Rochester, NY 14623), where it was diagnosed that the air bags failed to engage and did not need to be reset. The vehicle was then taken to an auto collision mechanic where it was repaired. Additionally, the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, she smelled a burning odor. Upon parking the vehicle at her residence, the contact saw smoke coming in through the instrument panel and AC vents. The contact stated that all four doors were then locked. The contact then released the key from the ignition and unlock the doors using the key fob. The contact saw a flame coming through the AC vent just before she exited the vehicle. After exiting the vehicle, the contact saw that the front seats were on fire and there was fire underneath the hood of the vehicle. The fire department arrived at the scene but was unable to un

Airbag sensor came on for no reason

My wife was hit on the drivers side door at 45mph and the side airbags didn’t deploy. According to the inspection, the side impact shorted the ACU.

The airbag sensor light will not turn off.

My airbag light will not go off . return the car back to the dealer . Car in the shop seen July 1 2021 and the dealer change my Sensor out three times, still the light stay on. One time the shop told me the wire harness was the problem, Recall in 2018 was to put a wire filter to help with the problem .

Air bag warning light came on while driving 9/16/2021(no collision or impact involved; no one in passenger seat). Mileage is about 110k. Have read a number of other owner complaints with similar information. Recall is not open; apparently already fixed, but clearly something is wrong. Concerned about non-deployment of air bags in the event of an accident.

No airbags deployed upon result of hitting a COW at 50mph. Airbags didnt deploy. Waiting to be overlooked by insurance adjuster. Highway patrol overlooked vehicle while filing a report. None.

Airbag light is on.

The air bag light will not go off. I have seen lots of complaints about this same issue.

Headlights have burnt out 4 times in 1 year w/install, break/tail lights have burnt out 6 times in 1 year w/ install. Cruise control isn't staying set and airbag light is on unknown reason after OBD scan. Break lights have burnt thru the connection piece, causing damage, overpower from the wiring harness has caused over load of power which caused lights to burn out and even burst. Multiple drivers with similar problems, airbag may still deploy for no reason or not deploy at all. Cruise control malfunction possibly due to airbag issues, but may also be from faulty wiring throughout the vehicle and ultimately into the sterring console. Computer or motherboard may also now have damages cause by over amped volts of electricity without a serge protecter. Possibility of electrical damages, caused by overload from power supply and directed throught the vehicle may have cause exponential damages to electrical in the sonata. Causing a serious safety concern and hazard. Exterior lighting requires new wiring harnesses and connection pieces as well as new casing from over amp overload, resulting in overheating and bulb combustion damages. New airbag assembly is probable and reset of mother board with upgraded features and completely new wiring with serge protection is necessary.

Air bag light on All steering controls not working

THE BUTTONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL DO NOT WORK EITHER. WE HAD OUR PERSONAL MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND HE FOUND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY INFO FROM OLD RECALLS. HE ALSO CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY INFO ON BOTH THE STEERING AND THE AIRBAG. WE THEN TOOK IT FROM OUR PERSONAL MECHANIC TO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO THE INCORRECT CODE DURING DIAGNOSTICS. THE CHARGE IS GOING TO BE $1950.00 TO FIX IT AS IT NEEDS A WHOLE NEW STEERING COLUMN AND COUPLER AND SOMETHING ELSE. WE HAVE HAD SO MANY RECALLS FIXED ON THIS CAR THAT IT'S GETTING RIDICULOUS. I LOVE HOW THEY "RECALL" AND PAY FOR THE LITTLE THINGS, BUT NOT THIS BIG THINGS THAT IS SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS. WE HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT THE ENGINE COULD SEIZE SO JUST WAITING FOR THAT TO HAPPEN .... NOT A VERY HAPPY HYUNDAI CUSTOMER AT THE MOMENT. WE WILL NOT PAY THE $1950.00 AND I WILL FOR SURE KEEP FIGHTING THIS BATTLE.

JUST GOT IT BACK SO I'VE ONLY DRIVEN IT ABOUT 50 MILES AT NIGHT SO FAR NO PROBLEM BUT IT'S TOO EARLY TO SAY FOR SURE IF THIS FIXED THE PROBLEM TO MY SATISFACTION. THE PROBLEM ONLY HAPPENED ABOUT 3 TIMES BUT IT IS UNPREDITCABLE WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS BUT WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN AND IT'S DARK, IT'S NOT SAFE SO WE TOOK IT IN RIGHT AWAY ON THE THIRD TIME BECAUSE THIS WAS THE LONGEST PERIOD OF TIME THAT THE PROBLEM LASTED.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 2013 FOR THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP IN GURNEE IL. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT RECALLS, AND ISSUES. ALL OF THE RECALLS FOR THIS YEAR AND AFFECTED MY CAR AS IN THE WARNING THEY WAY MAY HAPPEN ACTUALLY HAPPEN TO ME. MY ENGINE SEIZED UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH 2 KIDS IN THE CAR ON A BUSY STREET AND I WAS ALMOST RE ENDED AS A RESULT ONLY TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP TELL ME IT WASN'T THE RECALL! THEN LATER THEY HAD TO FIX IT AFTER I WORK TO CORPORATE BECAUSE IT WAS THE 132 CAMPAIGN RECALL. THE 3 DEALERSHIP I HAVE DEALT WITH ARE ALL RUDE NONE WANT TO ACTUALLY FIX YOUR CAR OR HELP YOU BECAUSE ITS RECALL WORK NOT ACTUALLY WORK THAT THEY MAKE MONEY OFF OF. NOW AS OF TODAY MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AFTER THE "FIXED" THE NEWEST SAFETY RECALL, WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED ME THEY FIXED THE ISSUE SO I WILL BE CHARGED $139.99 FOR THEM TO EVEN LOOK AT IT. WHEN WILL HYUNDAI BE ACTUALLY HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THESE CAR ISSUES THEY ARE ALL SAFETY. SO FAR THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN FOR THE ENGINE, SEAT BELTS, BRAKES, AIR BAGS, BODY CORROSION, AND SO ON! I THOUGHT THERE WAS LEMON LAW IN PLACE TO REMEDY THIS, HYUNDAI PRODUCT FAULTY VEHICLES WITH THE MODEL YEAR 2011 AND THE CONSUMER IF THE ONE LOSE AND SPENDING OUT OF POCKET. I HAD EVEN CALLED CORPORATE BEFORE THIS TO TRY AND REMEDY THE ISSUE MYSELF AND WAS TOLD THEY ARE SORRY SOME WILL CALL IN 3-5 DAYS. AT THIS POINT I AM A MOTHER DRIVING AROUND WITH CHILDREN IN A VEHICLE THAT MAY OR MAY NOT POP THE AIR BAGS WHENEVER IT FEELS LIKE OR THEY WILL NOT DEPLOY IF I DO GET IN AN ACCIDENT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH THESE CARS THEY ARE NOT SAFE TO BE DRIVING AT ANY GIVEN TIME ANOTHER RECALL CAN CAUSE A MAJOR SAFETY RELATED CRASH OR DEATH AT THIS POINT. I HAVE HAD WAY TO MANY CLOSE CALL WITH MYSELF OR MY KIDS LIVES AT RISK DUE TO HYUNDAI LACK OF CARE FOR THEIR CONSUMERS.

JANUARY OF 2019 I HAD MY ENGINE REPLACED, WHICH WAS ON THE RECALL LIST. BEFORE I HAD BROUGHT THE CAR IN THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD FIX ALL RECALLS. THEY NEVER DID. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE "CUPLER" WHICH IS IN THE STEERING WHEEL COMPARTMENT, WHICH I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD FIX BEFORE BRINGING IT IN. WHEN I PICKED THE CAR UP IT WAS NOT FIXED AND WHEN I ASKED WHY NOT, THEY TOLD ME I WAS OVER THE LIMITED MILEAGE BY 1,000 MILES. THEY NOW TELL ME I HAVE TO PAY $300 FOR THAT PART. ALSO, WHEN CHECKED ON THIS WEBSITE ABOUT MY RECALLS IT SAID THEY HAVE ALL BEEN REPAIRED, WHICH IS A COMPLETE LIE. OUT OF THE 20 RECALLS THEY FIXED 2. THE ENGINE AND THE FUEL PUMP WHICH WAS AFFECTED BY THE MOTOR ISSUE.

HOWEVER, IN LESS THEN 2 MONTHS THE NEWLY REPLACED ENGINE ONCE AGAIN SEIZED UP BUT THIS TIME ON THE FREEWAY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BE HIT BY ANOTHER DRIVER TRAVELING AT 80 MPH. THE AIRBAGS, ALSO RECALLED DID NOT DEPLOY. FORTUNATELY, FOR MYSELF, I WAS NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE WHEN THE SECOND ENGINE SEIZE UP. THE DRIVER AT 6'4 AND 220 LBS SUFFERED 10 FRACTURED RIBS, STITCHES IN BOTH FRONT & BACK OF THE HEAD AS, WELL AS, POSSIBLE FUTURE BACK RELATED ISSUES. THE DRIVERS RIBS AND HEAD HIT THE STEERING WHEEL AT FULL FORCE, MYSELF AT 5'7 AND 145 LBS SURELY WOULD HAVE SLAMMED MY FACE INTO THE STEERING WHEEL WITH SUCH FORCE, LEAVING LITTLE CHANCE OF SURVIVAL. HYUNDAI MOTORS AMERICA NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR REPLACING THEIR FAULTY RECALLED ENGINE WITH ANOTHER OF THE SAME (FAULTY ENGINE), FAILING TO REMEDY THE RECALLED AIRBAGS AT THE TIME OF REPAIR, REMOVING THESE "DEATH TRAPS" OFF OF THE STREETS IMMEDIATELY, AS WELL AS, FULL COMPENSATION FOR THE VEHICLE.

I BELIEVE THAT HYUNDAI SHOULD OFFER CAR RENTALS THAN TO HAVE CUSTOMER'S DRIVE IN A VEHICLE WITH AN UNSAFE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED AND A CLICKING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. THE DEALER (NORTH TOWN HYUNDAI, 7420 TRANSIT ROAD, WILLIAMSVILLE, NY) CLEARED ALL THE RECALL CODES THAT WERE PENDING ON THE VEHICLE, BUT THE CLICKING NOISE AND AIR BAG INDICATOR FAILURES STILL PERSISTED. IN ADDITION, SMOKE EMERGED FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,457.

I HAVE TAKING MY CAR IN TWICE TO THE DEALERSHIP SAN TAN HUNDAI FOR RECALL ISSUES ONCE ON 10/20/2017 AND AGAIN ON 11/08/2018 THE FIRST TIME I TOLD THEM THAT MY STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY AND THAT THEIR WAS A RECALL THEY TOLD MY THEY WANTED 300.00 TO FIX IT EVEN THOUGH MY CAR WAS PART OF THE RECALL ON 11/08/18 I TOOK IN MY CARE FOR RECALL AS MY EPS IS OUT AND THEIR IS A RECALL AND THEY SAID THAT WANTED 99.00 TO INSPECT IT AND DID NOT CRE ABOUT THE RECALL WHEN WE BROUGHT THIS CARE IT HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH IT BUT WE WERE STUCK AND NOW WE CANT GET IT FIXTED AND IM A HEART PATIENT AND NEED THIS CAR FIXTED

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM HYUNDAI THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG BEING IN DANGER OF "ELECTRICAL OVERSTRESS" CAUSING OPERATION FAILURE. THE LETTER SAID THEY WERE WORKING ON A FIX. PRIOR TO RECEIVING THE LETTER FOR THE FIX, MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I CALLED MIKE BROWN HYUNDAI (GRANBURY, TX) AND THEY SAID THEY COULD DO THE WARRANTY WORK. I TOOK MY CAR IN AND THEY SAID THEY DID THE RECALL WORK. HOWEVER MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS STILL ON. I FEEL THAT MY AIRBAG OVERHEATED PRIOR THE RECALL WORK THAT IS SUPPOSED TO PREVENT IT. THE DEALER WANTED TO CHARGE ME FOR A DIAGNOSIS AND HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS WOULD NOT OFFER ASSISTANCE. I BELIEVE MY AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE AND IS UNSAFE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT IN MY 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA CAME ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS.

I HAVE A CASE NUMBER FROM MY INITIAL CONTACT WITH HYUNDAI REGARDING MY CONCERNS OVER THE VEHICLE. CASE # 11225055. HONDA PROVIDED FREE RENTAL CARS FOR THEIR AIRBAG RECALLS. HOW CAN HYUNDAI SIT IDLE AND OFFER NOTHING? I AM REQUESTING NHTSA TO PLEASE PURSUE THIS COMPLAINT TO HELP EXPEDITE A REMEDY FROM HYUNDAI FOR THIS RECALL.

RECALL FOR THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT STILL HAS NOT BE COMPLETED. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN FEBRUARY OF 2018 AND STILL NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT (ACU) MAY SHORT CIRCUIT, PREVENTING THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS, SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS, AND SIDE AIR BAGS FROM DEPLOYING. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT A SOLUTION HAS NOT BE FOUND AT THIS TIME. HYUNDAI SHOULD HAVE TO BUY BACK ALL 2011-2014 SONATA'S AS THEY ARE A DANGER TO THE OWNERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CRENSHAW HYUNDAI (330 HUFFMAN MILL RD, BURLINGTON, NC 27215, (336) 584-1144) FOR ROUTINE SERVICE AND A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS COMPLETED ON THE AIR BAGS. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAG MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE REPAIR FEES. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V137000 (SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 11401169. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 121,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING DOWN A RURAL HIGHWAY (340 STUARTS DRAFT, VA) AT NO MORE THAN 35MPH, NO BUMPS OR JARRING WHEN THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE AIR BAG SENSOR ON MY CAR WHICH SAID "IF YOUR LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED, PLEASE SEE YOUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP". SO I TOOK THE CAR IN TODAY AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE ISSUE RECALLED. I ASKED THEM TO TELL ME WHAT IT WOULD COST FOR ME TO REPAIR IT AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE NO PART, GOOD OR BAD TO PUT IN IT. HYUNDAI TOOK ALL OF THE SENSORS BACK FOR DEFECTS, DIDN'T GIVE REPLACEMENTS AND WILL ONLY "BACK ORDER" A NEW PART UNTIL ONE IS MADE. MY AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED AND WILL FAIL INSPECTION SOON. THEN I'LL HAVE A CAR PAYMENT, FULL COVERAGE INSURANCE AND A CAR THAT I CAN NOT LEGALLY DRIVE. WHEN I ASKED WHAT I SHOULD DO NEXT, THE ANSWER WAS HOPE THERE WAS A FIX BEFORE MY NEXT INSPECTION.

Mileage: 135,000

THE AIR BAGS ARE UNDER A SAFETY RECALL BUT NO FIX HAS BEEN CREATED FOR IT, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION DUE TO THE AIR BAGS. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE?

HYUNDAI RECALL / SONATA 2011 JUNE 2018 : NO REMEDY HAS STILL BE ANNOUNCED , AM STILL ON "STAND BY" FOR A " POSSIBLE REMEDY". WAS RECOMMENDED TO CONTINUE MY SAFETY RECALLED CAR BY HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS , BY BRANDON R. IN HUNTINGTON BEACH. AND ALSO ANDREW IN CORPORATE. AFTER PATIENTLY WAITING AND REQUESTING A LOANER VEHICLE AND MANUFACTURES REFUND, IVE BEEN DIRECTED TO CORPORATE TO WAIT FOR THIS . WE CANNOT JUST WALK INTO A DEALERSHIP AND REQUEST A LOANER VEHICLE. AFTER WAITING 2 MONTHS STILL NO REMEDY, I AM LEGALLY OBLIGATED TO A REFUND OR REPLACEMENT WHICH HAS STILL NOT IMPLEMENTED. AFTER EMAILING THE DIRECTOR OF HYUNDAIS MANUFACTURES, JIM TRAINOR SAYS HE WILL TRY AND HELP ME DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF MY SITUATION AND RELAYING MULTIPLE REPORTS OF MY MODEL CATCHING FIRE (NON-COLLISION) AFTER DENYING MY REQUEST FOR A REFUND AND/OR REPLACEMENT IN RESULT OF A LOANER VEHICLE SINCE NO REMEDY HAS BEEN FOUND LONG AFTER THE NOTICE DESCRIBED ONE BY APRIL 2018. THIS CAN SIMPLY BE RESOLVED IF MATTERS WERE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AS WE ARE TOLD.. THE MANUFACTUERS GET AWAY WITH TOO MUCH. INSTEAD OF BEING GREEDY.. MY VEHICLE WILL BE IN STATIONARY AND HAVE A AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON. ELECTRICAL SAFETY AND AIRBAG SAFTEY MAKE THIS VEHICLE UNFIT TO DRIVE. I AM DEMANDING A REFUND AND REPLACEMENT .

I REALLY FEEL THAT THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS AND SIDE AIR BAGS ARE DISABLED AND THE SUSPENSION IS A RISK FOR MANY PEOPLE LIVES. I SUBJECT YOU GET THESE VEHICLE IN THE SHOP ASAP BEFORE SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPEN. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT EACH SHOP HAVE AN EXPERIENCE MECHANIC LAST MECHANIC WE HAD FOR A RECALL WE HAD TO COME BACK SEVERAL TIME AND THE VEHICLE STILL RUN LIKE CRAP. MAYBE YOU SHOULD REFUND PEOPLE THE REMAINDER OF THERE LOAN. I STILL HAVE A BALANCE OF 6,000 WHICH COMES TO ALL THE TRIP AND TIME CONSUMING. I ALSO CALLED EVERY DEALER IN MINNESOTA TRYING TO MAKE APPOINTMENT COULD SOMEONE CONTACT ME ASAP TO LET ME KNOW THAT THE PARTS ARE IN. MYSELF AND HUSBAND IS TAKING A ROAD TRIP AND WOULD LIKE FOR THE PROBLEM TO BE TAKEN CARE BEFORE THE END OF JUNE.

MY STEERING COLUMN BROKE, THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED TWICE, I'VE DEALT WITH ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, NOW IT'S INVOLVED IN THE AIRBAG FAILURE RECALL AND I'VE NEEDED TO TAKE MY CAR IN DUE TO THE 13 RECALLS. MY SONATA IS ONE OF THE FIRST MADE. IT'S FROM THE ALABAMA PLANT. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR WHY THE NHTSA HAS NOT MADE HYUNDAI BUY THESE VEHICLES BACK? I DON'T HAVE THE OPTION OF JUST GOING OUT AND BUYING A NEW VEHICLE. I'VE RAISED MY GRANDDAUGHTERS AND AM NOW AFRAID TO TAKE THEM ANYWHERE IN MY CAR. I'M BEGGING THAT YOU MAKE HYUNDAI GET THESE CARS OFF THE ROAD. IT SICKENS ME TO KNOW I'VE OWNED SEVERAL HYUNDAI'S. GIVEN THEM MY TRUST AND DEDICATION TO ONLY FEEL THEY'VE TURNED THEIR BACKS ON ME AND THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. I'D REALLY LIKE TO BE CONTACTED. I HAVE RECORDS OF ALL MY WORK DONE. THE ONLY THING I COULD NOT GET WAS RECEIPTS FOR WARRANTY ITEMS THEY DETERMINED I DIDN'T NEED RECEIPTS FOR. EVEN AFTER I COMPLAINED AND DEMANDED THEM. MY VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AND SERVICED AT SUPERIOR HYUNDAI NORTH IN FAIRFIELD OH. I HAVE SO MANY RECORDS, EVEN RECORDINGS, THAT I CAN'T POSSIBLY UPLOAD THEM ALL ON HERE.

AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED, DEALERSHIP SAYS SENSOR NEEDS REPLACING WHICH REQUIRES REPLACEMENT OF FRONT PASSENGER SEAT TRACK ASSEMBLY. SENSOR IS PART OF ASSEMBLY AND CAN'T BE REPLACED SEPARATELY. COST WITH TAX WILL BE $975. ANOTHER CODE CAME UP ALONG WITH THIS ONE. ONE ON STEERING COLUMN WAS COVERED BY HYUNDAI SO CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS ONE SHOULDN'T BE AS WELL.

MY 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA HAD THE AIR BAG LIGHT COME ON. IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS A BAD SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. TO BUY THIS SENSOR YOU HAVE TO BUY AN ENTIRE SEAT TRACK ASSEMBLY AT A COST OF $1259.00 PLUS LABOR TO INSTALL IT.

THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WOULD LIKE FOR US TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN TO CHECK FOR THE PROBLEM. ABOUT A YEAR AGO OR LESS WE HAD A VEHICLE RECALL ON TWO SPECIFIC ITEMS. AFTER TAKING OUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE ABOUT THE TWO RECALLS. ONE OF THE RECALLS WAS LOOKED INTO AND FIXED. THE SECOND RECALL WAS NEVER FIXED AND THE CAR ENGINE WAS RUNNING IN THE WORST MANNER, THE ENGINE WOULD RUN AND STALL, AT A STOP LIGHT WHILE THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING, THE ENGINE WOULD MISFIRE. WE WERE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED US TO LEAVE OUR VEHICLE SO THAT IT COULD BE CHECKED BY THEIR TECHNICIANS WHILE IN THE PROCESS WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROBLEM OR VEHICLE MISFIRING/STALLING OF THE ENGINE. WE CALLED THE 888-327-4236 FOR ASSISTANCE AND OUR PROBLEM WAS SOLVED. BY HAVING YOUR GROUP CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVING OUR SECOND VEHICLE RECALL FIXED AND SOLVED. THAT'S THE MAIN REASON FOR NOT GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, APPARENTLY THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES IN TOWN. ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON (AND STAYED ON) WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT ON 12/13/2017. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS RELATED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY UNTIL THE PROBLEM WAS FOUND AND NECESSARY REPAIRS COMPLETED. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A PERVASIVE ISSUE IN HYUNDAI SONATAS FOR ALL MODEL YEARS TO DATE. SEVERAL FORUMS DISCUSS THIS SAME ISSUE AND I SEE THAT SEVERAL COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED THROUGH THE NHTSA AS WELL. THIS ISSUE INVOLVES BOTH THE AIRBAGS AND THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM (SENSORS; PASSENGER SEAT TRACK) AND POSES A MAJOR SAFETY RISK. I WAS ALLOWED TO BRING THE CAR HOME, IN ORDER TO WEIGH MY OPTIONS. I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR ONCE, AND CYCLED THE CAR ON AND OFF IN MY DRIVEWAY. THE AIRBAG DASH INDICATOR REMAINS ILLUMINATED. THE COST TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE FEELS EXORBITANT, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT APPEARS TO BE MORE RELATED TO MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR.

I SEE SO MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE AIR BAG LIGHTS NOT GOING OFF WHY HAS THIS ISSUE NOT BEEN RECALLED YET?? *TR

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED BY A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP IN SOUTH FLORIDA. AFTER "REPAIRING" THE AIR BAG SIGNAL, IT HAS REAPPEARED ON AT LEAST FOUR TRIPS TO THE DEALER.

TAKATA RECALL. I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS EVERYONE ELSE. THE SOUND OF SOMETHING LOOSE IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND CLUNKING NOISE HAS BECOME HORRIBLE. REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR AT A STAND STILL, I CAN MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND HEAR THE NOISE. I CHECKED THE YEAR OF PRODUCTION OF MY VEHICLE AND IT DOESN'T FALL UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL; HOWEVER, IT SEEMS A LITTLE IRRESPONSIBLE OF HYUNDAI TO NOT RECALL ALL VEHICLES THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD NOT JUST A NUISANCE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW AND HAS ONLY BECOME WORSE WITH TIME. I WILL BE CONTACTING HYUNDAI TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE. IN THE INSTANCE THEY REFUSE TO SERVICE THE VEHICLE UNDER THE CURRENT WARRANTY I WILL BE CONTACTING AN ATTORNEY. SAFETY HAZARDS CANNOT BE IGNORED. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASH BOARD TURNED ON FEW MONTHS AGO, THE CAR HAS NEVER INVOLVED IN ANY KIND OF ACCIDENT. IT IS 2011 SONATA AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THE DASH BOARD LIGHT TURNED ON FEW MONTHS AGO AFTER 5 1/2 YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR. I TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY ASK FOR $160 FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND THAT AMOUNT WILL APPLY TO THE COST OF FIXING THE PROBLEM IF I DECIDES TO GO AHEAD OF FIXING THE AIRBAG LIGHTING PROBLEM, THE DEALER GAVE A ROUGH ESTIMATE BETWEEN $900 TO $1200 TO FIX THIS AIRBAG ISSUES. THEY ALSO SAID THE THE AIRBAG ONLY WARRANTY FOR 6 YEARS OR 60,000 MILES. I THOUGH THE AIRBAG SHOULD BE 10 YEARS AND 100,000 MILES AS HYUNDAI ALWAYS ADVERTISED THAT. I SEARCHED ON THE WEB AND THERE ARE A RECALL ON AIRBAG FOR ELANTRA BUT NOT SONATA. IT IS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURE DEFECTED BECAUSE THIS IS THE ORIGINAL AIRBAG AND THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY KIND OF ACCIDENT AS I MENTIONED ABOVE. I SEEMED LIKE THE 10/100,000 WARRANTY IS JUST FOR ADVERTISEMENT PURPOSE AND THEY ARE NOT REALLY STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT OR QUALITY. BTW - I EXCHANGED SOME EMAIL WITH HYUNDAI CORPORATION BUT IT DID NOT GO ANYWHERE.

AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF ONCE THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. THIS ISSUE CAUSED ME TO FAIL MY CAR INSPECTION BECAUSE IT IS A HAZARD IF I WAS TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAG DOES NOT DEPLOY. THE COULD LEAD TO FATAL RESULTS.

AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED FOR NO REASON AND CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. TOOK IT IN TO DEALER AND PAID &100. FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE CODE B1346 DRIVER AIRBAG RESISTANCE TOO HIGH. MONITOR CURRENT DATA AND RESISTANCE ON DRIVER AIRBAG IS AT 10 OHMS AND WHEN MOVING STEERING WHEEL IT GOES INTO FAIL MODE. RECOMMEND NEW CLOCK SPRING A'S STEP ONE OF REPAIR.

AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON.

STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO MAKE A SMALL "CLUNK" NOISE, WHICH HAS NOW PROGRESSED TO A LARGE "CLUNK" NOISE AND RATTLING OF THE WHEEL. THIS BEGAN SOME TIME AGO, PERHAPS 4 MONTHS, AND HAS JUST GOTTEN WORSE. I TOOK IT IN TO A CERTIFIED HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP TO GET IT LOOKED AT AND REVIEW FOR RECALLS. WELL, AFTER HAVING TO PAY THEM $100.00 WITHOUT PREVIOUSLY HAVING AGREED TO, THEY TELL ME THE PART COSTS ABOUT $3.00, BUT WITH LABOR WOULD TOTAL $310.00!!!! THIS SHOULD FALL UNDER A RECALL. I HAVE SEEN SO MANY PEOPLE POST ONLINE ABOUT THE ISSUE. I SEE WHERE SOME PEOPLE GOT IT FIXED FOR FREE, AND OTHERS WHO HAD TO PAY! I EMAILED HYUNDAI TOO, PRIOR TO TAKING IT IN TO THE SHOP, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAD TO GO TO THE SHOP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. NO HELP AT ALL. I CONTINUE TO DRIVE MY CAR, WHICH I PAID FULL PRICE FOR, WITH THE CONSTANT CLUNKING! MIND YOU, I HAVE CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND AM TERRIFIED I WILL EVENTUALLY LOOSE CONTROL OF THE WHEEL AND CRASH.

THE LIGHT JUST STAYS ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF - THE CODE THAT CAME BAK WAS FAULTY DBA, FAULTY CLOCK SPRING, FAULTY SRSCM - THERE APPEARS TO BE OVER 100 COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE AND APPARENTLY THIS MEANS THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF A VEHICLE ACCIDENT OCCURS WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN.

TAKATA RECALL - MY FIANCEE WAS DRIVING MY CAR IN A PARKING LOT, THEN STOPPED AND ACCIDENTALLY TOOK HER FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKE WHEN SHE PUT HER JACKET ON THE SEAT AND IT FELL ON THE FLOOR. SOON AFTER, SHE HIT A BUILDING AT LESS THAN 5 MPH SINCE THE CAR SLOWLY ACCELERATED WITH THE FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKE. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND THE TRIP & RESET BUTTONS THAT WERE ON THE STEERING WHEEL WERE BROKEN OFF AND BECAME SHRAPNEL THAT WENT RIGHT PAST HER FACE. LUCKILY SHE ONLY SUSTAINED BURNS AND BRUISING DUE TO THE AIRBAG, BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE IF THAT SHRAPNEL HIT HER IN THE FACE OR CHEST. I WOULD LIKE TO FORMALLY MAKE A COMPLAINT STATING THAT THE AIRBAG SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE OFF WHEN THE VEHICLE IS UNDER 5 MPH AND FURTHERMORE THE STEERING WHEEL SHOULD NOT HAVE SHRAPNEL BEING CREATED WHEN THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS.

"AIRBAG LIGHT RECALL" I HAVE AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON IN MY CAR NOW AND IT SEEMS LIKE A TON OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING OR HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE! THIS LIGHT POPPED ON ABOUT A MONTH AGO WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ACCIDENTS, NOTHING ELSE CHANGED THE LIGHT JUST POPPED ON. I AM REQUESTING THAT THIS BE TURNED INTO A RECALL BECAUSE THIS IS NOT DUE TO ANYTHING THAT I HAVE DONE.

I STARTED MY CAR ONE DAY AND NOTICE THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON AND WOULDN'T GO OFF. I WASN'T INVOLVED IN A WRECK OR HIT NO BUMP, JUST STARTED IT AND IT WAS ON.

THE STEERING COLUMN IS RATTLING AND SHAKING WHEN BRAKING AND OR REACHING A SPEED OF 60. IT IS CAUSING THE BALANCING OF TIRES WORN, AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AND TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR THE STEERING WHEEL WILL SHAKE AND VIBRATE UNTIL IT FELT AS IF THE STEERING WHEEL WILL SHAKE A LOSE.#3 THE LIGHTS ON MY CAR WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING IT'S VERY OBVIOUS AT NIGHT IT IS A SCARY SITUATION. ONE NIGHT THEY FLICKER AND DIDN'T WANT TO COME BACK ON RIGHT AWAY UNTIL I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD UNTIL THEY CAME BACK ON. I CALLED MY HYUNDAI DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WILL BE AN 118 SERVICE CHARGED TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE MY WARRANTY IS UP. I THEN CONTACTED HYUNDAI USA WHEN THEY FINALLY CONTACTED ME BACK THEY PRETTY MUCH TOLD ME THE SAME THING THE HYUNDAI DEALER SAID. THE PROBLEM WITH MY LIGHTS BEGAN IN 2012 BUT EVERY TIME IT TOOK THE CAR IN THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DETECTED SO THEY WOULD SAY AND THIS WAS WHEN I WAS UNDER MY WARRANTY.

AIR BAG LIGHT WON'T GO OFF - SERVICED REGULARLY - BROUGHT THIS TO TWO SEPARATE DEALERS NOT COVERED THEY SAID CLOCK SPRING TIMER AND IT IS NOT ON RECALL LIST - THEY DID SAY IT IS UNSAFE IF AIRBAGS DEPLOY IF YOU SHOULD HIT A BUMP - EXTENDED WARRANTY DOESN'T TOUCH AIRBAGS...

I OWN A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA LIMITED. A FEW DAYS AGO I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHED AND STAYED ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH BOARD. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND STARTED THE VEHICLE BACK UP AND THE LIGHT STAYED ILLUMINATED. MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS FOR THE AIRBAG LIGHT TO TURN ON. I WENT TO CARCOMPLAINTS.COM AND THERE ARE 81 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE AND NONE OF THE VEHICLES WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. MOST OF THE ISSUES WERE THE AIRBAG COIL SPRING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IF THIS IS THE CASE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG SPRINGS. ONCE THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I SPOKE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE WITH HYUNDAI AND THEY INFORMED ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT THE ISSUE BESIDES TAKE IT TO HYUNDAI AND HAVE THEM RUN A DIAGNOSTIC ON THE VEHICLE AND GET IT REPAIRED. THE REPRESENTATIVE DID NOT SEEM AT ALL CONCERNED FOR ME OR MY FAMILY SAFETY WITH HER RESPONSE. IF YOU COULD PLEASE RESEARCH THIS INFORMATION IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

PIN PROBLEM AND DEALER SAYS NO RECALL.

I PURCHASED MY CAR NEW 2011 SONATA IN DEC. 2010 AND NOW MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS....... WHAT!!!!

AIRBAG LIGHT ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CAME ON DURING VEHICLE STARTUP, WHILE STATIONARY, DURING ITS BUILT-IN TEST. MILEAGE ON VEHICLE WAS APPROXIMATELY 96,000 MILES. TOOK TO DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. RESULT WAS, "...NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, BUT WE CAN FIX IT FOR $1,000". RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE.

Mileage: 96,000

AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. DEALER SAYS IT'S A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING AND WILL COST $450 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. THIS CAN BE DEADLY IF IN A CRASH AND AIR BAGS DON'T DEPLOY!

THE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS RECENTLY ILLUMINATED AND STAYS ON. THERE IS NOTHING OBSTRUCTING THE WIRES UNDER THE SEATS AND THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN A CRASH. THE LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HAS REMAINED ON. CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THAT AIRBAGS AND SENSORS ARE ONLY COVERED UNDER THE FIRST 5 YEARS AND 60,000 MILES. BASED ON THE RECENT PLETHORA OF RECALLS ON THE 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA AND AFTER READING COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES, I AM CONCERNED THAT NOT ONLY ARE THE AIRBAGS COVERED UNDER A LIMITED WARRANTY, BUT THAT THIS MAY BE ANOTHER POSSIBLE RECALL IN THE LONG LINE OF RECALLS FOR THE HYUNDAI SONATA. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFE CAR FOR ANYONE AND FEEL THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT/DEACTIVATION COULD RESULT IN DEATHS SHOULD HYUNDAI NOT COVER THE AIRBAGS LONGER AND FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE REPAIR.

Mileage: 5

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. I WAS ADVISED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT I HAVE TO PAY $450 TO REPLACE A SPRING INSIDE THE STEERING COLUMN FOR THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS FRUSTRATING AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A MANUFACTURE DEFECT.

"TAKATA RECALL"I BELIEVE THAT I OWNED A DEFECTED VEHICLE. SINCE DAY 1 THERE WAS ONE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AFTER THE OTHER. MY RADIO COMES ON AND OFF BY ITSELF, HYUNDAI FAIRFAX FOUND NO PROBLEM AFTER THREE VISITS, UNTIL I JUST GAVE UP. I REPLACE 7 - 8 BLUBS IN MY CAR, A AIRBAG, AND NOW A SOCKET FOR MY BRAKE LIGHT BECAUSE MY CAME ON AND OFF, LIKE OTHER ITEMS IN MY CAR. IT'S LIKE I HAVE A SHORTAGE OR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE. AFTER, THEY REPLACED THE CLOCK SENSOR IN THE STEERING WHEEL FOR THE AIRBAG, NOW MY PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS AND UNLOCK SOMETIMES. EVERY TIME I COMPLAIN TO FAIRFAX HYUNDAI, THEY DENY THAT ANYTHING COULD BE WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND THAT HYUNDAI DESIRE IS TO MEET SAFETY REGULATION AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BY PROVIDING GOOD PRODUCT. UNFORTUNATELY, THINGS SOMETIMES HAPPEN. IT'S WHEN A CORPORATION TAKES THE COMPLAINTS SERIOUSLY AND ADDRESSES THE CUSTOMER CONCERNS, IS WHAT GROWS A BUSINESS. I HAVE YET HAD ANYONE CONTACT ME OF MY CONCERNS SINCE I HAD THIS VEHICLE, AFTER MAKING MANY COMPLAINTS. I WILL APPRECIATE SOMEONE TAKING THIS SITUATION AND MY CONCERNS SERIOUSLY BY CONTACTING ME WITH A RESOLUTION.

"TAKATA RECALL". THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER STARTING CAR. TOOK THE CAR TO JENKINS HYUNDAI OF LEESBURG FL. AFTER ABOUT 35-45 MINUTES LATER THE SERVICE MAN CAME BACK AND SAID THE PROBLEM IS A CLOCK SPRING THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND WOULD COST US $350 TO FIX IT. HE SAID THAT IF IT IS NOT FIXED THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY DURING A CRASH. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE TO PAY TO FIX A PART THAT IS OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE. HYUNDAI HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH AIRBAGS OVER THE YEARS. TAKATA AIRBAGS HAVE CAUSED MANY INJURIES AND DEATHS BECAUSE OF DEFECTS. WHY HYUNDAI EVEN USES TAKATA AIRBAGS IS BEYOND ME (UNLESS THEY MANUFACTURE THEM). I AM NOT IN A FINANCIAL POSITION TO FIX THE PROBLEM RIGHT NOW OR BUY ANOTHER CAR. IF I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR AND I AM IN A CRASH, I MIGHT NOT SURVIVE BECAUSE OF HYUNDAI'S REFUSAL TO COVER THE COST OF REPLACING A PART THAT WAS MORE THAN LIKELY DEFECTIVE WHEN THE CAR WAS BUILT. THERE IS NO WAY THAT I CAN BELIEVE IT IS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE PART, THE AIRBAGS HAVE NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED. PLEASE EXPEDITE THIS COMPLAINT AS I AM NOW DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT I FEEL IS UNSAFE.

DUE TO LOSS OF WAGES FROM OTHER RECALLS I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO AFFORD TO GET MY AIRBAG LIGHT CHECKED. THE CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN A CAR ACCIDENT. THE LIGHT CAME ON AROUND THE 63000 MILE MARK AND I HAVE NO WARRANTY TO GET THE CAR FIXED. I'VE READ ONLINE ABOUT NUMEROUS AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THEIR SAME CAR HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS ME. WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I'VE READ I'M SURPRISED THERE HASN'T BEEN AN INVESTIGATION OR RECALL YET FOR THIS ISSUE. IT'S A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND IS GOING TO GET ME OR SOMEBODY ELSE DRIVING A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA KILLED IF NOTHING IS DONE. I'VE HAD ATLEAST 5 OTHER RECALLS ON THIS CAR WHICH JUST GIVES ME MORE REASONS TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS THE MANUFACTURERS FAULT.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE CAR IS CRUNK AND WILL NOT GO OFF. HAS BEEN ON FOR MONTHS. NO CAR ACCIDENTS EITHER.

STEERING WHEEL MAKES A CLICKING NOISE WHEN TURNED LEFT OR RIGHT, AND SHAKES AND RATTLES VIOLENTLY WHEN GOING OVER A BUMP (WHETHER IT BE A SMALL BUMP ON THE ROAD OR SPEED BUMP). ALSO SHAKES AND RATTLES WHEN I BRAKE. AFTER ONE SHAKE AND RATTLE INCIDENT, MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. NONE OF MY STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS (VOLUME, BLUETOOTH, PHONE, CRUISE CONTROL, ETC.) WORK. MY HORN NO LONGER WORKS ALSO. TOOK MY CAR TO HYUNDAI DEALER AND HAD TO PAY $118 JUST TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED! REALLY?!? I HAD TO PAY IN ORDER TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAID THE SHAKING/RATTLING PROBLEM WAS THE FLEX COUPLER ASSY, WHICH THEY QUOTED ME WAS $475 TO FIX! THEN THEY SAID IT WOULD COST ME ANOTHER $225 TO FIX MY STEERING WHEEL CONTROL ISSUE! COME TO FIND OUT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT I'M HAVING. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. CALLED HYUNDAI CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY TOLD ME THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE I WENT OVER MY WARRANTY MILEAGE LIMIT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN ISSUE BECAUSE WHEN MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES, I FEEL LIKE IT'S GONNA FALL OFF. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING A CAR THAT VIOLENTLY SHAKES. CONSIDERING SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY HYUNDAI ISN'T TAKING THE TIME TO LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND RESOLVING THIS PROBLEM WITH SO MAY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME ISSUES! I'M NOT PAYING ANOTHER $700 TO FIX MY CAR WHEN IT IS OBVIOUS HYUNDAI USED CHEAP ($2.00) PART THAT ARE BREAKING DOWN ON THEIR CONSUMERS. I ALREADY PAID $118 JUST TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS!

THANKFULLY, MY SITUATION DOESN'T YET INCLUDE ANY TYPE OF ACCIDENT. MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AROUND AUGUST, 2014. I PURCHASED THE CAR USED IN JANUARY OF THAT SAME YEAR FROM A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. IT WAS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD, SO I DIDN'T THINK THE INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ANYTHING SERIOUS, MAYBE JUST A SENSOR. I SERVICED THE CAR ON SEPT. 17, 2014 FOR A DIFFERENT PROBLEM, AND THE TECH NOTED THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. I DECLINED TO DO REPAIRS OR DIAGNOSTICS BECAUSE I HAD JUST PAID SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS THAT DAY. WHEN I SERVICED THE CAR SEPTEMBER, THE FOLLOWING YEAR (SEP 17, 2015) I REQUESTED THEY CHECK THE AIRBAG. THEY KEPT THE CAR OVERNIGHT, UNABLE TO ESTABLISH THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM -- IN FACT THEY HAD TO CONSULT A HYUNDAI EXPERT OUT-OF-HOUSE. EVENTUALLY THEY TOLD ME THE WHOLE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY NEEDED REPLACEMENT - $1,100. THE PAPERWORK LISTS "AIRBAG B1102 BAT VOLTAGE LOW, B1346 RESISTANCE TOO HIGH, NEEDS NEW AIR BAG ASSY." MY CONCERN IS THAT A CAR ONLY 3 YEARS OLD NEEDS A NEW AIR BAG. UNTIL I'M ABLE TO AFFORD A NEW ONE, MINE STILL DOESN'T WORK. GIVEN THE OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES IN THE CAR, I HAVE TO WONDER IF OTHER HYUNDAI OWNERS HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I HOPE THIS INFORMATION IS HELPFUL, AND PERHAPS PREVENTS SERIOUS INJURY DUE TO FAULTY AIR BAG ASSEMBLY UNITS.

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS LOOSE. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP LAST YEAR AND THEY STATED THAT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN DOOR LATCH RECALL. AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON OUT OF NOWHERE.

I'M GOING TO CALL THEM TOMORROW BECAUSE I READ WHERE THERE WERE RECALLS ON THAT, BUT I NEVER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION.

MY MAIN AIRBAG LIGHT HAS CAME ON AND NOW STAYS ON AS IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAGS OR SENSOR.

I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING ISSUES WITH THE AIR BAGS OR AIR BAG SENSORS. SOME REPORTS ENDED IN A CRASH AND AIR BAGS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY SINCE THEIR LIGHT CAME ON.

MY VEHICLE HYNDAI SONATA 2011, CRASHED INTO A PARKED CONSTRUCTION IN A PARKING LOT AT THE SPEEDS OF UP TO 30 MPH. THE CRASH DAMAGED BASICALLY THE WHOLE FRONT SIDE OF THE DRIVER SIDE AND DAMAGED THE FRONT TWO WHEELS. THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WAS DAMAGED AS WELL WITH CRACKS ON THE SHIELD AND IT ALSO KNOCKED OUT THE REARVIEW MIRRORS. I WAS IN THE DRIVER SEAT WHEN THE CRASH HAPPENED AND MY HEAD CRASHED UP AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL, WHICH LEFT A LITTLE SORENESS. WHAT I WAS WONDERING IS WITH SUCH AN IMPACT AND SUCH DAMAGE, HOW DID THE AIRBAGS NOT GO OFF?. MY HEAD SLAMMED PRETTY GOOD UP AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL AND A LITTLE MORE IMPACT I COULD'VE BEEN SEVERELY HURT. SO I JUST WANT TO ASK WHY DID THE AIRBAGS NOT WORK? *TR

TONIGHT I WAS REAR ENDED BY A WOMAN IN AN SUV, WHO'S BRAKES DID NOT WORK IN HER DURANGO, SHE SAID. THERE WERE NO SKID MARKS INDICATING AN ATTEMPTED STOP. HER IMPACT ON MY VEHICLE WAS SEVERE. POLICE OFFICER GUESSED SHE WAS GOING 40 MPH WHEN SHE HIT MY CAR. MY CAR WAS SHOVED FORWARD INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF MINE, THAT CAR THEN HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF IT. THERE WERE 3 CARS, MINE LAST IN LINE, SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. WE WERE ALL STOPPED. THEN THERE WAS A 4TH CAR THAT HIT MINE FROM BEHIND. THE MATTER IM REPORTING IS THAT THE AIRBAGS IN MY HYUNDAI SONATA SE 2011 CAR DID NOT DEPLOY WHEN I THEN HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE IMPACT WAS GREAT ENOUGH TO CAUSE THAT CAR TO THEN HIT ANOTHER CAR AND THAT CAUSED A CRACK IN THE RADIATOR OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF MINE. ALSO, AFTER I HIT THAT CAR IN FRONT OF ME, I THEN BOUNCED BACK ABOUT 10 FEET. MORE EVIDENCE OF IMPACT. WHY NO AIRBAGS? I DID NOT SEE VERY MUCH DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF MY CAR NOR THE BACK OF THE CAR THAT WAS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF MINE, WHILE THE BACK OF MY CAR WAS BAD ENOUGH THAT I EXPECT TO BE TOLD IT IS NOT REPAIRABLE.. IM REPORTING JUST IN CASE YOU RECEIVE ANY OTHER REPORTS INDICATING THERE IS SOMETHING FAULTY CONCERNING AIRBAGS IN THE HYUNDAI. I KNOW AIRBAGS ARE NOT TO DEPLOY IN REAR END COLLISION BUT SINCE I THEN HIT ANOTHER CAR FRONTALLY, I WOULD THINK THE AIRBAGS WOULD DEPLOY. MY HUSBAND WAS IN THE PASSENGER, FRONT SEAT AND IN ORDER TO BRACE HIMSELF, HE PUT HIS HAND UP AT THE WINDSHIELD. THE GLASS WAS BROKEN IN AN AREA THE SIZE OF A CANTALOUPE FROM THE IMPACT AGAINST HIS HAND. IM THINKING THE IMPACT MUST HAVE BEEN MODERATE TO SEVERE. ON THE UP SIDE, MY SONATA TOOK THAT HIT AND SUSTAINED THE DAMAGE TO THE OUTSIDE AND UP INTO THE AIR AT THE TRUNK RATHER THAN INTO THE CAB OF THE CAR. MY FATHER AND SON WERE IN THE BACKSEAT AND WERE NOT KILLED, I THINK BECAUSE THE CAR IS A GOOD, SAFE VEHICLE IN A CRASH. *TR
