| Description of the problem | 2007 hyundai sonata. Passenger airbag light stays on while my wife is sitting in front passenger seat. This means that the airbag is not activated & in the event of an accident the airbags will not deploy. We have had the front cushion replaced in nov 2007 but the problem have returned. This is an intermittent problem. We have photo's of the light on & passenger seat occupied. Company so far is sending me to the dealer but unless the light is on while we are there they won't do anything. |
