The seat belt wiring appears to be faulty which was suppose to be fixed in 2003 when I brought my car into the Hyundai dealership in bloomington, mn for this recall. The seat belt keeps dinging when I'm buckled up and driving, I noticed the air bag light also came on and hasn't come off since the seat belt dinging started. I can stop the dinging from the seat belt by moving the seat belt piece around which is located between my seat and center council. The manager at luther Hyundai referred me to the Hyundai Consumer Affairs and they made a report and conveyed that I should bring it back to the dealership. I spoke to the manager again at the dealership and he is saying that regardless he'll have to charge me $119 for a diagnostic fee. My VIN number is very close to the VIN numbers that are being recalled for this very same problem but Hyundai won't look at it without charging me. I'm getting conflicting information from Hyundai Consumer Affairs and manager at the Hyundai dealership. Ultimately, I'm concerned that if I am in a car accident and the air bag doesn't deploy it could cost me my life.
