Description of the problem	Two weeks after purchasing this vehicle the air bag warning light came on. I made an appt with fuccillo hyundai of schenectady ny, the location where i purchased the vehicle, for one week later. Light went off after 3 days and i contacted fucillo and they told me to make another appt if the light came on a again. It did multiple times over the next several months, i made appts, the light went off after a few days, and fucillo hyundai kept telling me to make another appt if the light came on again. The air bag light did this for months and in early 2010 while in cocoa florida the light illuminated and i visited cocoa hyundai and they told me not to drive the vehicle if the light came on, the airbags would not work in an accident, they offered me a loaner to drive and they began work on the vehicle within the hour. Light came on after a short period of time, had it in to cocoa hyundai a second and then yet again a third time over 2 months. The light has been going on and off for the past 3 1/2 years and it has now been on for the past 4 months, i can`t afford to have the vehicle into the shop on a regular basis and would like you to look into this make and model for air bag defects.
