 Description of the problemA red light warning on air bags came on while traveling. When the problem was checked by a hyundai dealer, they reported that the seat pods were shorted out and that the seat pods needed replacement at a cost of over $1,600. The car mileage was 53,000. The ocs system is not working. I contacted hyundai about the problem and they sent a contract person to inspect the problem. He indicated that he thought that the air bag system was working, but could not explain why the warning light was on, nor would he comment about the dealers finding. I returned to the dealer and they confirmed that the ocs system was not working due to the seat pod malfunction. I contacted hyundai again with their dealers finding and requested that hyundai replace the part and i would pay the labor cost. They replied that their position that the ocs system was "operating according to design" and that they would not replace the seat pods. It is apparent that this another example of hyundai"s air bag problems, but they refuse to acknowledge the problem or replace the faulty part. This is a serious safety problem for me and my family. I have kept all correspondence with hyundai about the problem.
