My Hyundai Sonata 2008 gls has airbag sign on and would not go off. The passenger seat belt sign is flashing without anybody seating on the passenger side. The dealer said my car is not being recalled they said I have to get it fixed. Even though many other owners that I checked online had same issues and their cars got fixed by the dealers at no cost because they were recalled. Plz recall my car.

SRS light came on while driving when the passenger shifted slightly in the front passenger seat. Light reappears on restarts and stays on. OCS recall was done 9/23/11, but have still had problems with this. Think the current problem is related to the cushion, but know Hyundai won"T repair a second time. Seems to be a major problem with this model from reading other reports of the same issue.

Seat belt light came on about 2 years ago due to a faulty seat switch. Hyundai repaired the seat at no charge. Now the seat belt light has come and the dealer says that the seat is to fault again. Hyundai refuses to fix the seat switch again unless I pay for it, and that it is no a safety hazard. I maintain that it is a safety problem because if the air bags really become defective, we will have no warning. Hyundai has extended their warranty on this problem to 15 years and/or 250000 miles, but they will only repair it once.

Airbag indicator warning light stays on after turning the engine

- Cherry Hill, NJ, USA

During routine use, while a passenger was in the front seat and I was driving on the highway, the airbag warning light illuminated. The error code was B1448, which appears to be associated with a malfunctioning occupancy sensor. While there is a recall of other 2008 Sonatas for similar problems, the dealer and Hyundai claim that my vehicle is not covered under the recall. I am concerned that Hyundai has incorrectly excluded vehicles from this recall. This malfunction appears to result in the passenger airbag being disabled, which could increase the risk of injury to passengers. Please advise if there is anything that can be done to correct this issue for myself and others similarly impacted by the malfunction. The warning has not gone away, and reappears after being reset.

While the car was parked in the driveway of my home, I turned the vehicle on and the airbags lights came on the dash. I drove it work and hoping the airbag lights will turn off and it did not. I took the problem to the Hyundai dealership for evaluation. A little history, my airbag lights came on back in 2012, case #10352554, the vehicle had a recall for it. The dealership sent the front right passenger seat to California for repairs. The problem was fixed. Now jump forward 2017, my airbags light came on again and the dealership advised me the problem is not related to the recall back in 2012. The dealership advised me the problem now had to do with the front passenger seat pressure sensor (cushion) for the airbags. According to the dealership they would have to replace the whole front passenger seat to fix the problem in order for my front passenger seat airbag to deploy properly during an accident. I feel that this is a defect with this Hyundai vehicle and a secondary problem related to the airbag recall. I feel the problem should be investigated further to prevent any injury or death.

My 2008 Sonata with VIN [xxx] does not recognize smaller adult passengers resulting in illumination of the "passenger air big off" light in the center console. I noticed this around 2009-2010. I did research this problem online and noted that a recall was issued (recall number 08V161000), which affected the vehicle's "occupant classification system" or OCS. At the time, there was not a method to research my specific VIN, so I brought the car to tameron Hyundai in birmingham, al in the 30-50K mile range. Tameron Hyundai did not perform extensive testing, but rather had a "130 lb" mechanic sit in the vehicle and claimed that my passenger air bag "occupant classification system" or OCS was in working order. The car continued to fail to recognizing smaller adults. However, more recently when a larger adult passenger sits in the passenger side that can trigger the passenger OCS, the red dash air bag warning light illuminates on the dash. Immediately when I noticed the change in the operational status of the vehicle, I called Hyundai customer care regarding this issue. They created the case number 10343035 for reference to my case, and referred me to frank Hyundai. I took the vehicle to frank Hyundai where the problem as a malfunctioning passenger OCS which was the subject of the recall above. Both frank Hyundai and Hyundai customer care advised me that my vehicle's VIN number was not subject to the recall on the OCS (recall number 08V161000). The cost of repair was greater than the vehicle's value. I was easily able to afford a replacement vehicle, so I disposed of the vehicle and obtained a new vehicle. However, I am concerned about the safety of others who still drive similar vehicles. I think some Sonatas may have been overlooked in recall 08V161000, and I think the campaign should be extended to other vins.

My airbag light is stuck on at all times. I have not been in any accidents no body work has been done to the car. The light doesnt flash off and on, it stays on all the time. Several mechanics cannot clear the code or figure out why. Ive been sent to certified Hyundai dealerships and they can't figure it out. I ve read all over the internet of people pumping thousands of dollars into fixing it, only to have the light come back on. Im not putting money into a black hole for the problem to never have a permanent solution. I feel unsafe not knowing the real issue. Its not the airbag fuse or wiring as that has been insepected and tested. I have one dealership who won't even look at my car because I think they don't know what to do with it. I have no documents to attach because technically nothing happened to my car to trigger this light. It just came on one day. It doesnt matter if the car is parked or in driving mode or anything. Its always on. I can't pass any state inspections.

My driver's side airbag light has been on for quite some time, and my passenger side airbag light is not detecting anyone sitting in the passenger seat. I took my car to a mechanic and was told it's an electrical issue with my airbags and may be due to a faulty wiring issue under the front passenger seat. Additionally, the low beam on my driver side lighting fixture is not working, although I've had the bulb replaced multiple times. Further, the headlights, although also replaced, don't work at all.
