Air bag light has been on since bought new in 2005. hyundai can not/will not fix. internet search shows 100's of same complaint. covers 2003 to 2013 many models of hyundai, but especially the xg350 model. have to drive with air bag light on all the time. srs system not functioning. major safety issue!!

The "air bag" dash icon light stays on all the time. hyundai has "fixed" it once by re-inserting connectors under the driver's seat. the "fix" lasted a couple of days. the vehicle now has 61,000 miles on-still under the 10k mile warranty, and the light stays on still. hyundai keeps saying that it will cost over $500 just to diagnose. hyundai has no solution for this issue, the internet searches will show that. this srs light problem is endemic with all hyundais in the early to mid 2000's. an internet search will show hundreds of srs "light-on" issues with these hyundais. there is no question that all these model's srs systems are problematic at best and a total failure at worst. all people driving these model hyundais are absolutely at risk. a recall is positively required. like i said, just do a search on hyundai srs/air bag/airbag light and you can see the magnitude of the issue. i can't believe that i am the first to complain about this issue, so what is happening!? in no search is there a solution: check connectors under the seat, jiggle this or that, but no solution that works and no recognition from hyundai of the problem....and this is a life threatening issue not just an inconvenience. these models need to be recalled and at the very least hyundai has to come up with a real solution. *tr
