Airbag light has been on for a couple days. After thorough research, other Hyundai models have experienced the same problem with the airbag and is under recall. However, my vehicle is not. I proceeded to go get diagnostic testing, which confirmed that the airbag malfunction is the same as other vehicles. My vehicle was in motion when the notice first appeared.

My air bag will not work because of a part in the steering wheel called the clock spring.Hyundai will fix it, if I pay $327 and I think it shoud be fixed for free.

Hyundai Veloster 2012 - travelling in left lane of divided 4 lane highway at 65mph, braked and slightly veered to left suddenly as vehicle in right lane moved into left lane in front at slower rate of speed. With very little left shoulder, vehicle went off the road into the grassy damp median. Due to loss of traction, was difficult to control vehicle, had choice of hitting trees/creek or concrete bridge support. Vehicle hit bridge support still traveling at 45-65mph head on, then swung around so left side of passenger vehicle scraped on the bridge support from front bumper to rear seat. Vehicle suffered major damage to front end, tore off mirror, door handle and broke all glass on left side. Airbags did not deploy anywhere in the vehicle. Driver was struck by an object in vehicle causing a severe laceration across eyelid from nose, up across eyebrow. About 1.5" long, cut to bone. Side window glass shattered resulting in several pieces embedding in various body parts and many sharp slivers of glass all over. Had airbags deployed, particularly the steering wheel airbag, we feel that the driver may have avoided the injury to the eye which will require reconstructive surgery to repair. Wiper washer stalk broke off from steering wheel with the outer portion completely coming apart with a 2-3" protruding plastic core which we believe caused the eye injury due to blood on the item. Other possibility would be the rearview mirror. In either case we feel that air bag deployment would have prevent face from contacting either of those items.

On Friday October 23 a drunk driver lost control of his 2011 camaro crossed the median on a city street and barreled into my sons 2012 Hyundai Veloster. While the camaro air bags inflated, our Veloster did not. According to Hyundai diagram there are two sensors in the front drivers side, neither worked. Though my son and his passenger walked away, I am concerned that these sensors/air bags are defective and should be looked into. Our vehicle was pushed back several feet after the impact and they did not deploy. I am concerned about the safety of these vehicles protecting lives. One of the reasons I bought this car was due the many airbags. I am disappointed and concerned about this possible defect...updated 12/11/15
