Description of the problem	My airbag light came on and took car to local dealer. Code indicated driver side buckle resistance high and needed new driver side seat belt buckle. This was replaced at dealership. On 5/16/2014 when i took my car to have passenger seat removed from recall related to sensor, they also found the code for seat belt on passenger side and stated that i had to replace that at 400. 00 for my airbag light to go off. This repair was done and paid for. Yesterday on 5/29/14 the airbag light came back on and stayed on. Took it back to dealership and now they say that the code indicated the driver side seat belt buckle needs to be replaced again. There are many complaints listed on this site and i believe there is a real issue with the 2006 sonatas and the airbag sensors.
