| Description of the problem | Front passenger weight classification sensor failure. Dealership says the only why to fix it is to replace seat for 1800. 00. Dealership cannot tell me if srs will work when needed. After doing so research online this looks like a big problem with hyundal cars throughout many model years. Hyundai has failed to remit this problem and is selling vehicles to the public with faulty air bag systems. |
