2006 Hyundai Azera airbags problems

Filed Oct 11, 2023 · Airbags, Seat belts · TN

The air bag light came on for the front passenger seat. I took it to Grayson Hyundai & they tried to get part #88840-3L500-J9 which is the latch right front buckle assembly. I was told there was no part available because my car is a 2006 & manufactures are only required to carry parts for 10 years. I was also told if the air bags worried me to trade cars. I would think the seat belt buckle for a safety feature like the air bag would have to always be available. I have owned this car since 2006, it only has 26,600 miles on it. It has always been garage kept & literally looks like a new one EXCEPT I have NO air bags. Also, today I was told part #88840-3L500-J9 is on a National Parts List, whatever that means. Surely this has happened to someone else. I just decided to report it.

How many people have to be injured before hyundai figures out their non-airbag deployment issues? 57 complaints on the federal safety agency for the 2006 azera air bags, and I was just in a hard side t-bone collision just in front of the driver's door that broke my collar bone, and not one air bag deployed. I was proceeding through a 4 way intersection when my light turned green, and a car to my left was accelerating through the red light. I bought the car brand new, and completed all issued recalls. When my air bag light kept coming on three years ago, I was finally told it was the driver side seat belt tension sensor, which was not covered by a recall, only the passenger side had the recall, so I spent over $600 to have it fixed, and the error light went out. I opened a case with hyundai to inform them I was in a side impact accident and no air bags deployed. When they called to follow up, they did not seem interested in figuring out the problem, said I never brought the vehicle back for a follow up, and asked me what my agenda was? I had no agenda at the time, and was even looking to purchase a g90, but I guess now it is to let some hyundai owners know their could be air bag problems.

I took my 2006 azera to the dealership when I received a recall notice for a possible SRS malfunction (10v007000). After a year or so the SRS light came on intermittently but was mostly off. Starting this week (3/15/2019) the SRS light has stayed on and won't go off. Based on what I have read, this is a common problem for azera owners. I believe a second recall is necessary since the first one did not solve the problem for very long.

I have an 06 hyundai azera and there was a recall made back in 2013 for the passenger seat wiring hireness. The defect would cause the airbag not to deploy. Would I be able to get this defect fixed now? I did not own the vehicle back in 2013, as I did not own it until may of 2015. It is showing the signs of the defect. The air bag light is on and it is throwing error codes b1489&b1495, which is for the passenger occuputant system. I also have this noise like something is loose in the suspension. Every little bump causes a rattling noise. I can not tell if it is the front or back, but I am assuming it is the back since there was a recall on this as well, plus I have replaced all front end parts. And the noise still exists.
