Just purchased this vehicle used and the air bag dashboard light went on. The dealer charged me $140 to diagnose informing me that the seat sensors need replacement adding that the entire seat assembly may need to be replaced. I feel this is a failure of Hyundai's research and development plus quality control of a major safety system device. Its replacement should be free based on this. As a note the light comes on immediately at start and while driving, stays on constantly

The occupant classification system (OCS) installed in the right front seat of the vehicle will not turn off and will not detect a person in that seat and turn the "passenger seat air bag off" light off. This has been a reoccurring problem in other Hyundai vehicles and recalls have been issued. For some reason, the Elantra has not been included even though it uses the same system and there have been many complaints. This is a definite safety issue and needs attention..

I was driving down hwy I-45 South in dallas, tx and hit black ice. That is ice that cannot be seen on the road. I was going approximately 50 to 55 mph. I hit the brakes and hit the back of a metal trailer. The welded mesh landscaper trailers popular in dallas. In other words I hit a flat vertical hard service. My airbags did not deploy. I told Hyundai of the issue and they sent out someone to inspect the vehicle. They sent a letter stating "the Elantra's frontal airbags are not intended to deploy during every impact that is generally directed against the vehicle's front end." I am confused, I thought a air bag should work with all front end impacts and collisions. When I purchased the vehicle I did not get a disclaimer stating when the airbag should work and should not with a 50 mph front end collision. I am upset with the way Hyundai is responding. I did not expect a new car, only for Hyundai to acknowledge the problem.
