2009 Hyundai SANTA FE Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1314802
Internal NHTSA #	10903468

Model	SANTA FE
Model Year	2009
File date	29/08/16
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The passenger side air bag sensor (ocs) remains in the off position when my small stature wife (5 ft 98 lbs) rides in the passenger seat. This is a major safety concern that i would like hyundai to correct. I read that some 2009 santa fe models had a recall due to this exact issue (recall campaign 105) but mine model does not seem to be included. I am not sure why but since my 2009 santa fe has the same problem as the recall addressed. This has been a problem since we purchased the vehicle in 2009. Our local dealership told us that there is nothing they could do. Now i see on the nhtsa website that hyundai can update the ocs classification software. I believe hyundai should update my vehicle's software at no charge.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
