This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2006 Hyundai Sonata. While driving various speeds, the electronic stability control indicator illuminated without warning. In addition, the rear passenger side brake light failed to illuminate after being replaced several times. Furthermore, the air bag indicator illuminated without warning. Ken garth Hyundai (10770 auto mall drive, sandy, Utah 84070) was made aware of the failures and requested that a diagnostic be performed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and stated that the vehicle was not included in any recalls. The failure mileage was unknown.
1 week ago I purchased via private sale a 2006 Hyundai Sonata. The airbag light came on the next day. I took to garage for required annual inspection and failed because the airbag light is on. I find it quite impossible to be charged the enormous fee from a dealer to correct this issue. Then I found out it had been recalled in the past for this issue and now Hyundai is no longer honoring the free fix. What can you do for me?
Responded to a airbag recall July 2013. Dealership indicated they corrected recall. However, now 11/2017 airbag light goes on. Car mechanic says light is indicating a recall on airbag. Contacted Hyundai Consumer Affairs and was told that the correction only replaced the seatbelt not the seatbelt tentioner and we were never informed that their was no fix at the time for the tentioner. No further notice went out indicating repair could be done. They indicate it can be fixed now under campaign txx2.
The ESC off started just lighting up out of no where then staying on till I restarted the vehicle now the air bag light is staying on after I start the vehicle what could be causing this to be happening? also it the ESC happens while in motion and the airbag happened with car was stationary.
Hi my airbag light is on continuously and when I scan with obd scanner it shows B1448 code.(OCS)...so how to fix it......can Hyundai dealer will repair this for free.....because its a recall as well....
The contact owned a 2006 Hyundai Sonata. While driving 55 mph, the contact's vehicle was rear ended by another vehicle. As a result, the contact's vehicle left the roadway, entered the woods, and spun around several times. The air bags failed to deploy. There were no warning indicators illuminated prior to the crash. The contact sustained neck, lower back, and head injuries that required medical attention. The contact was unaware of injuries in the other vehicle. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot where it was deemed destroyed. The vehicle was not inspected to determine why the air bags failed to deploy. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The contact stated that in 2015, the vehicle was serviced at miller Hyundai (4455 vestal pkwy E vestal, NY 13850 877-386-0382) per a recall number: 88801F01 regarding the front driver and passenger side buckle pretensioner and air bags. The correct recall information was unavailable. In 2015, prior to the recall repair, the air bag warning indicator illuminated. The diagnosis was unknown, but a spring was replaced. The failure mileage was 154,244.
Code B1448, testing revealed that the passenger seat sensor was not communicating. "airbag" light is on, passenger seatbelt light flashing when no passenger is in
Air bag light on dash stayed lit all the time. Took to mechanic who said code showed passenger side sensor is faulty which means the whole seat has to be replaced in order for entire air bag system to work. Said codes showed prior similar occurances. Hyundai needs to reimburse for replacement and issue recall -lots of similar accounts online.
Driver side air bag light is on. I take it to the dealer (lhm Hyundai in spokane valley, wa), they fix it and it keeps turning back on. This happened again when I adjusted the seat. The car was parked when I moved the seat back to remove and clean the mat, and then moved it back in the forward normal position. When I turned on the ignition the light turned on and is still on continuously. When I called to make an appointment, I was told that it may not be the recall issue and that I may have to pay for a diagostic on it. Isn't this still part of the recall with the seat sensor? this has been happening on and off for several years.
Airbag light is on in the car. Hyundai dealership identified it as a free recall and that the seat would need to be shipped out to California to be repaired to correct OCS. The seat was unable to be shipped out due to the lack of loaner vehicle. Sometime later checked back with dealership about getting recall completed. Now there is no active recall on the passenger seat OCS, and dealer did not record the diagnosis on the vehicle airbag system. Dealer wants to charge another $130 to read codes for work already completed. The approx. Original mileage was 64000 when dealer originally diagnosed.
A red light appeared on my instrument panel that stated "air bag" and continues to stay lit when vehicle is driven. I am not sure if it is an airbag or sensor malfunction with the vehicle. I am making an appointment with the dealership today to have the vehicle checked for this issue.
My parents who are elderly have a 2006 Hyundai Sonata, they took care if the recall where a dealer took out the passenger side seat, sent it to California kept it for weeks...then not long after putting the seat back in the air bag light came on, at first it was on and off, now it stays on all the time... dealer refuses to help them, we are not even sure if the air bag works or not, and don't want to find out it doesn't after a accident...please give me some guidance... thank you
The "air bag" warning light on the instrument panel has suddenly stayed on after the engine has been started. It will not shut off at all when key in ignition whether the car is in motion or not.
I own a 2006 Hyundai Sonata.while merging into the traffic. It was recently involved in a front end collision. The crash was so bad that it affected the radiator and even broke the coolant reservoir. The main frame of the car is also damaged. Even after this level of serious crash, the airbags still didn't inflate. No airbag was deployed. I suffered some injuries. This brings me to question the safety of this car. My model was premium sports package with 3.3 V6 engine.
The airbag light on the dashboard stays on and the passenger continuously blinks. I happened to click/engage the seat belt (with no one in the seat) and the passenger light goes off but the airbag light on dashboard stays on. I do not know the exact date this started happening because my daughter drives it and she's going to Colorado college in Colorado springs. But today's date is 6/5/2017
