 Description of the problemIn the mid of april, i received a extended warranty letter from hyundai for my "air bag" light that has been on. It was for the air bag light due to resistance within the connector for the front seat belt buckle. On april 27, 2015 i scheduled my first appointment at savannah hyundai. On invoice it stated: 135681 check and found history codes b1701 drivers seat buckle pretensioner resistance high b176 passenger seat buckle resistance clear codes no codes reset. I was told the problem was fixed. As i drove off the service lot, my air bag light went back on. On may 4, 2015, i went in for another diagnosis and was told that they needed my car to stay at the shop and they gave me a rental. They said they needed to send my seat off to be fixed. It was a few days that they had my car. On that invoice it stated: check air bag system for codes b1701 and b1706 driver and passenger front seat belt buckle pretensioner resistance high found service bullentin 15be002 install tie strap on driver and passenger seat belt buckle pretensioner connectors. On june 22, 2015 i came in savannah hyundai once again because my air bag light warning came back on. I was told that my warranty was already extended was no longer under warranty and i would have to pay out of pocket if i wanted to fix this problem with my car. Which i had the extended warranty and had no idea why they were fighting with me with this. Fix the safety issue! On invoice it was noted that the tsb for pretensioner connectors were already performed and that the vehicle needs passenger buckle pretensioner and the tsb does not mention any warranty covering the replacement, only the zip tie installation. I called corporate and on may 29, 2015, they ordered the passenger seat buckle pretensioner and supposedly they fixed the issue. Today is july, 15, 2015 and my air bag warning lamp is on once again. I am very disappointed.
