| Description of the problem | Own a 2008 hyundai sonata. The air bag light just came on and won't reset. Dealer said it could be several things ... Replace seat belt or the seat at a very high price. Dealer also stated that there was no guarantee that the light would not come on again after making the so-called repair. They couldn't even tell me if the air bags would function while the air bag light was on in my car. I'm pretty much at a loss on this one. Whatever happened to safety first?? |
