2007 Hyundai SANTA FE Air Bags Side Window Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	695073
Internal NHTSA #	10243973
Manufacurer	HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY
Brand	HYUNDAI
Model	SANTA FE
Model Year	2007
File date	01/10/07
Component	AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The passenger front air bag sensor located in the seat does not correctly classify my wife (130 lbs.) as an adult. As a result, the passenger front air bag and passenger side impact air bags are not consistently activated. The "passenger air bag off" indicator light located on the dash is on at least 30% or more of the time of travel. This system is not dependable in the event of a front or side impact. There is no way to know when the system will be activated and protecting my wife. She weighs 130 pounds in body weight. I believe the sensor in the seat is poorly designed and ultimately unreliable and unsafe.
