| Description of the problem | The airbag light ha been on in my car for about 3-4 weeks and stays on continuously, will not go out. I have tried to have it reset, but it does not help. I believe this is or should be a recall because i have been reading over the internet and several other owners of this make and year model of hyundai are also having these same issues. Also, there appears to be oil leakage but we cannot see it. We have to add oil to the car every week, even after we have had an oil change the week prior. I took it to hyundai of bowie with these same issues several months ago, but they said there was no recall and before they could check it out, there would be a bill. I did not have the money and believe there is something wrong with the engine and may be part of the recall. |
