HYUNDAI INVESTED AND RESULTS HAVE NO BEEN DISCLOSED. *TT *JS
MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS LIT ON MY DASH. MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN INVOLED IN AN INCIDENT. I CAME OUT ONE DAY & MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V472000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,835. UPDATED 05/18/16*LJ UPDATED 05/19/16.*JB
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STARTING THE IGNITION THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE AIR BAG MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.
OUR HYUNDAI VERACRUZ AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER THEY INFORMED US THAT THE SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR HAD GONE BAD. IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT THIS WOULD BE A CONSIDERABLE SAFETY CONCERN IF THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T WORK. IT WOULD ALSO SEEM TO ME THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT FAIL UNDER NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND THERE ARE OTHERS WHO ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. *TR
RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HYUNDAI REGARDING THE CAMPAIGN 103 UNDER WHICH THE CLOCK SPRING CONTACT ASSEMBLY BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR WAS RUNNING FINE NO ISSUES WHAT SO EVER. NOTE: NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON 6/25/2013. CALLED DEALER, SET UP AN APPOINTMENT, DROPPED CAR FOR RECALL WORK ON 6/26/2013. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD TAKE FEW HOURS. SO, WENT TO PICK UP AFTER WORK @5:45 PM (DEALER'S SERVICE WORKSHOP CLOSES AT 4 PM. SO, THE SERVICE MANAGER HAD LEFT KEYS WITH SHOWROOM RECEPTIONIST). GOT IN THE CAR AND STARTED IT TO REALIZE THE AIR BAG SIGN WAS ON. CALLED DEALERSHIP'S AFTER HOURS SERVICE NUMBER. THEY TOLD ME TO CALL THE SERVICE MANAGER THE NEXT DAY. SO CALLED NEXT DAY, DEALER ASKED FOR MORE MONEY TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM IN THE CAR AND EVEN MORE MONEY IF THERE ARE ANY REPAIRS NEEDED. CALLED HYUNDAI ABOUT THE SITUATION AND DEALER'S UNWILLINGNESS TO CHECK WHY THE AIR BAG SIGN IS ON BUT HYUNDAI DID NOTHING. FRUSTRATED WITH ROUTE 4 HYUNDAI DEALER IN PARAMUS, NJ. HYUNDAI OWNERS BEWARE OF THOSE SCAMMERS. FIRST THEY WILL SCREW UP THE CAR AND THEN ASK FOR MORE MONEY TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I EVEN DOUBT THAT THEY HAVE PERFORMED THE RECALL THAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO PERFORM. HOW CAN ANY DEALER HAND OVER A CAR WHICH HAS THE AIR BAG SIGN ON, WHICH CAME ON AFTER HIM SERVICING THE CAR. AFTER READING SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CLOCK SPRING RECALL, I THINK HYUNDAI NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING SERIOUSLY ABOUT THIS AIR BAG SIGN. I HOPE NHTSA LOOKS IN THIS MATTER. *TR
AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHTS ON! THE AIRBAG SPRING HAS BEEN REPLACED PER RECALL. AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON 2 MONTHS AFTER REPLACEMENT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY REPORTED A SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR MALFUNCTION (IT DESCRIBES AS 43164 B1371 SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR DRIVER INSTABILITY. SHORT INSIDE STPS CAUSING LIGHT TO APPEAR). PARTS NEED TO BE ORDERED AND IT WILL UNDER WARRANTY OF MY CAR ORIGINALLY TOLD. HOWEVER, THE SERVICE MANAGER CALLED BACK AND SAID IT WILL COST ME $300 FOR REPLACEMENT 2 WEEKS LATER. I BELIEVE THE REPAIR/ SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR SHOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY OF THE CAR AND THE PART SHOULD BE ON RECALL. IN ADDITION, AFTER REVIEWING SOME OF YOUR AIRBAG COMPLAINTS, THE SEAT TRACK SENSOR MAYBE TO BLAMED FOR THE AIRBAG MALFUNCTIONS. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INTERMITTENTLY. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE CLOCK SPRINGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS WERE CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED AND THE IGNITION SWITCH FAILED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR EITHER FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.
HARD AIR BAG FAULT LIGHT ON. NO IMPACT. *TR
AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THE 1ST TIME ON 20 AUG 2008 AND CONTINUED 4 MORE TIMES TO 20 DEC 2010. ALL AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS WERE RESET BY DEALER. I WONDER HOW MANY OWNERS HAVE TO GO TO DEALER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
