Description of the problem	I bought this car in 2013 for the hyundai dealership in gurnee il. Since then i have had nothing but recalls, and issues. All of the recalls for this year and affected my car as in the warning they way may happen actually happen to me. My engine seized up while i was driving with 2 kids in the car on a busy street and i was almost re ended as a result only to have the dealership tell me it wasn't the recall! Then later they had to fix it after i work to corporate because it was the 132 campaign recall. The 3 dealership i have dealt with are all rude none want to actually fix your car or help you because its recall work not actually work that they make money off of. Now as of today my airbag light has come on after the "fixed" the newest safety recall, when i called the dealership they informed me they fixed the issue so i will be charged $139. 99 for them to even look at it. When will hyundai be actually held responsible for all of these car issues they are all safety. So far the recalls have been for the engine, seat belts, brakes, air bags, body corrosion, and so on! I thought there was lemon law in place to remedy this, hyundai product faulty vehicles with the model year 2011 and the consumer if the one lose and spending out of pocket. I had even called corporate before this to try and remedy the issue myself and was told they are sorry some will call in 3-5 days. At this point i am a mother driving around with children in a vehicle that may or may not pop the air bags whenever it feels like or they will not deploy if i do get in an accident. Something needs to be done with these cars they are not safe to be driving at any given time another recall can cause a major safety related crash or death at this point. I have had way to many close call with myself or my kids lives at risk due to hyundai lack of care for their consumers.

What is Recall?
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.
