| Description of the problem | My vehicle was struck while standing still waiting for a traffic signal to turn green. The other vehicle which struck my vehicle was traveling possibly 20 - 25 miles per hour. Damage almost totaled my car. My wife was driving, alone in the vehicle and was injured but did not report it at the time. She was injured because the air bag did not deploy. She was wearing a seat belt which operated correctly. At the time, because other cars and excitement, no one paid attention or reported the fact that the front seat air bag did not deploy. Now, four years late, a red air bag warning light has lighted along with another faulty seat belt warning light for passenger side. The hyundai people deny any problem with the air bag. I believe the air bag system to be defective. I have never been notified of a recall. |
