Description of the problem	The passenger airbag light came on at 37,000 mileage while the car was on but not moving. I took it to my local hyundai dealer to check the airbag light and was told that airbag controller needed to be replaced. However, this is manufacturing defect that poses a threat of the consumer's safety as it can be deadly that the airbags will not deploy when needed! This can be fatal. Additionally, it seems this problem has been reported by other owners of 2011 sonatas over the past 5 years. This needs to be a recall from the manufacturer! Please help the consumers and their families.
