Intake Camshaft, Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit and Brake Booster are the system that failed all in the same week.

Problems has been confirmed by independent service center. My car has been inspected by mechanics. My engine light is on and when diagnosed the codes P0011-00 & P0010-00 pop up.
The air bag warning light illumination. Dealer replaced the "clock spring" in steering wheel. This part was recalled for all like vehicles through 2014 and warranty as extended to 100,000 miles or 14 years. Model year 2015 was not included in the recall, yet the same part failed thereby making the driver's front air bag inoperable. It should have been included in the recall. I requested reimbursement from the manufacturer in the amount of $638.50 but was told the vehicle was no longer under warranty. No vehicle should br driven without properly working air bags.

I own a 2015 Hyundai Sonata and have an issue with dash pad, the passenger side air bag has split at the airbag seam and has traveled to the drivers side. If the passenger airbag deploys, I could see some severe injury to the passenger side occupant when the airbag deploys after the cover detaches from the rest of the dash pad. The lifespan of any safety system component is 15yrs according to NHTSA

Engine burns 2 quarts of oil a week. Took it in for oil consumption tests and Hyundai figures out ways to not replace these faulty GDI Engines. Also car has a strong gas smell inside car. Maybe gas leaking. Airbag warning light has been on for years. Took it to the dealer in the past they said it's ok(Hub Hyundai Katy TX) but I don't feel confident.

The airbag dash light intermittently comes on and off, it has thrown a B1490 code although the car has never been in any major accidents before. I have read that it is a common issue among vehicles like mine, however there is no recall though I've seen many complaints about it on online forums.

I've been having an oil consumption issue on my vehicle. I've been getting my oil changed on time regularly & the oil seems to burn off extremely faster than it should. Every time I get my oil changed I've been told that there aren't any leaks. Now my check engine light is on & my engine is shaking. Ive only had my car for 3 years & my air bag light came on out of no where. Also my gear shift seems to lock up & wont release from park to drive
Took vehicle to dealership for service and mentioned when my wife drives the car the air bag light intermittently comes on while she is driving straight down the highway. It will just come on, and go off. No rhyme or reason to it. The airbag light will not come on in this fashion while I am driving the vehicle. Technicians looked at the vehicle and checked the clock-spring, and then said air bag ECM and sensor (srscm) modules need to be replaced. This vehicle has not been subject to any jump starting, has the original battery, and not involved in any frontal crashes. Car has been well-maintained. Believe there is a manufacturing defect in these parts.
Airbag light of driver side is light up on dash possible chances that airbag might not inflate at the time of crash. And passenger seat belt light keep flashing even though there is no one on passenger side.

"takata recall'. when sitting in traffic I thought someone hit me from behind. Next thing I know, I am hitting car in front of me. I really feel when air bags on steering wheel and under wheel went off the bottom bag hit my leg and knocked my foot off the brake pedal leaving bad bruise on my leg.first response, hit the brake but in confusion I think my foot was knocked over the gas peddle causing me to run into car ahead. Result: $9000 damage to my car, other car got scratch on bumper. I was the only one injured and needed to go to doctor for treatment. Please follow up because this is a big concern for the safety of the car owners. I truly am afraid to drive my Sonata again but would like to know because I would not want someone else to get hurt if I trade my car in. [xxx]. please talk to my husband when you call, I get to upset talking about it. Thank you very much for your concern for your customers. My car is a 2015 Sonata, VIN. Thank you information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
I was parking the car at an angle and hit the outside wall of a store at 2:30 in the afternoon. Both air bags deployed on the driver's side. Initially, I thought I had done something wrong, and maybe I did but I came to find out much later that this car has a floor mounted gas pedal. I had owned the car about five weeks by that time and had been out of town one of those weeks when I didn't even use it. I had put plastic mats in the car to protect the mats and carpeting in there. That morning I saw that the mat had gone up against the gas pedal. Again, at that point, I did not realize that the pedal was floor mounted. My only complaint is that Hyundai should tell people this and tell them not to put extra mats on the driver's side unless they are custom made. I really don't know if the accident was because I did something wrong or because the mat was pressing against the gas pedal and propelled the car forward while I thought I was pushing on the brake. The front corner of the car was severely damaged as was the wall I hit.
