Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I started my car at approximately 8 a. M. On 6/26/13 to go to work. One second after the engine fired, the steering wheel airbag blew up in my face. I have never had an accident in this car. The vehicle was stationary at the time and on my property with no evidence of anything out of the ordinary. After some troublesome negotiations, hyundai motor america agreed to make a "one-time goodwill repair" of the vehicle's airbag components in exchange for signing my life away regarding the vehicle. I don't know if they reported this defect to you when i called their regional office in austell georgia on the day of the incident. However, i am reporting it now, in the hope that this doesn't happen to someone driving down a texas highway at 80 mph. Their flippant attitude concerning this, to me, is disturbing. I have not yet had the car repaired and am afraid to drive it. *js
