| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The airbag light has come on multiple times in my vehicle. The clockspring replacement recall was performed on my vehicle. The airbag indicator has continued to come on intermittently since then. Finally, about two months ago, the light came on and stayed on. I took the vehicle into the hyundai dealership and they stated low voltage and reset the light. The light came back on immediately when i drove it off their lot. I took the vehicle back in and they stated it was because of the junction box and that i needed to spend $895 to replace it. I believe hyundai should repair the airbag issue because of the failure of their airbag system throughout the entire time i have owned this vehicle. I will not buy a hyundai again if this is not honored and i have purchased two brand new vehicles from them. |
