At 1641, I was driving 55mph on tonganoxie rd with the right of way & no stop signed. The other driver did have a stop sign but did not yield and entered the intersection causing my vehicle to strike the middle of the passenger side and spinning my vehicle and stopped 90-?? to my right facing the direction she was traveling. All of my air back opened and inflated properly, except the driver side airbag. Because of this, my head slammed into the glass window, which then threw up upper body towards the passenger side. Had I not had a seatbelt on I would have ended up there. Due to the kinetic impact to the window (airbag only inflated about 1/4 of the way) I suffered a TBI severe concussion, tore my upper ribs from the breast bone, whiplash to my neck and back. There was a recall for this EXACT vehicle and driver airbag issue but mine was not listed as being on it. It has been a month and I still have a lump and tenderness at the impact site, brain fog and severe headaches, neck and back pain causing my to out of work at leave without pay. The headaches are worsening a bad do not want anyone else hurt.

My wife has had a bad back for many years and requires a cushion to ease the back pain while riding in the passenger seat. By doing that the air bag on the passenger sit will not activate. This has created a real problem for people with a disability. I've reached out to Hyundai to have the passenger air bag active continuously but they have refused. I'm not asking them to turn it off, I'm asking them to turn it on so we can be more secure in the vehicle. We have tried many different pillows, cushions and back supports to no avail. Riding with the air bag inoperable is not an option, research on the internet shows thousands of complaints with the same problem. Hyundai's answer is buckle up tight and sit back away from the dash. This is not an answer to a problem that can effect millions of disabled people spending many thousands of dollars on new cars that want to feel safe. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you.
