Description of the problem	The air bag light came on my console 2 days ago. I took it to a mechanic who ran a diagnostic on it and concluded it was the occupant classification system (ocs). I found out there was a recall on 07/25/2012 recal number 12v354000 for this exact problem. However, i was not the owner at that time. I called 2 hyundai dealerships nearby - countryside and st. Petersburg, fl who both told me they could not find any open recalls under my vin number. This is unacceptable. Hyundai needs to accept all charges for the cost to repair this issue and it should be covered under the recall. As of now i am driving a vehicle that is unsafe because hyundai will not honor my vehicle!!!
