Description of the problem	I took my car into my new local dealer wallace hyundai , stuart fl. My air bag light started staying on all the time. At the time i brought it in, my vehicle was still covered under the bumper to bumper warranty. This dealer told me i had to pay $100. 00 to inspect the vehicle for the issue. I have never in the life of owning 2 hyundai sante fe's (this being my 2nd) did i ever have to pay up front for bumper to bumper issues. I am disabled and did not have the $100. 00 so i left and then the warranty ran out, so my issue has never been taken care of. To this day, my airbag light is still on and i am concerned it will either deploy or not deploy at all in an accident. Updated 03/23/11
