Description of the problem	I received a letter from hyundai that my car was under recall (issue with the passenger air bag being de-activated) & urged me to visit the dealer if ocs light was on. Hence i took it to the dealership based on this safety recall notice, there i was informed that they will perform the inspection and conditionally charge me $110 for it which i agreed and later my only options to get the car back after the inspection were either pay $110 inspection fee or the $350 to fix the issue which they deemed was not related to the recall and hence not covered. If hyundai has a manufacturing defect should it not be their responsibility to inspect it to see if the recall is applicable instead of charging the customer for it? Secondly, having critical safety features (that disables the entire ocs!) fail on the car just after warranty is very unfortunate, in this case the seat buckle pre-tensioner failed and disabled the ocs system (although i believe the seat belt and airbag would have worked fine with slightly less function if pretensioner added feature is not available). Please advise what i need to do since hyundai refused to refund my payment. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
