Hyundai Recall 088: Air Bag Light Illumination - Spilled Liquid
2001 Hyundai Elantra
This condition may affect the driver and passenger frontal air bags and may prevent air bag deployment during a crash where such deployment should occur. Non-deployment of the SRS air bags may increase the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger under certain crash conditions.
Air Bags — Frontal — Sensor/Control Module-Inactive
- Summary
- Hyundai is recalling certain MY 2001 Elantra vehicles. If a liquid is spilled in the area of the cupholder on the center console, it may seep through the console opening for the parking brake lever and then drip onto the air bag control module electrical connector. The spilled liquid may contaminate the air bag control module and its electrical connector to the air bag wiring harness and cause the supplemental restraint system (SRS) warning light to illuminate.
- Actions
- Dealers will install a protective cover over the vehicle's air bag control module connector. The recall owner notification began on November 30, 2008, and letters will be sent out in six mailings. Owners may contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151.
