| Description of the problem | The 'airbag on' sign has been on for a while. I understand that it is a safety issue and i tried to alert the manufacturer. They do not want to take the responsibility since the recent recall excludes cars manufactured in 2004, and the car is out of its warranty period as well. I put an internet search and there are numerous complains on hyundai sonata airbag issues. |
