| Description of the problem | 2007 hyundai tiburon. The air bag warning light goes off and on. I have taken it to the dealer numerous times. The mechanic has just "reset" the warning light. The mechanic mentioned to me that other customers have had problems. I asked why there wasn't a recall, and i got no response. Now the air bag warning light stays on all the time. The car is out of warranty. Why wouldn't the auto maker fix this problem before my car was out of warranty? Why doesn't the auto manufacturer recall these vehicles? This is not the first problem i have had with this auto. The first problem was bad tires. They kept going flat. The mechanic told me it was because i didn't drive enough. I bought new tires myself. They don't go flat, even though i still don't drive a lot. |
