I rear-ended someone at around 30-35 MPH. The vehicle I hit was stationary. The air bag did not deploy but the air bag warning light was left on. No one was injured.

The car airbag light intermittently comes on. It does not seem to be related to anything in particular. A mechanic read code b1448 for a defective passenger side seat occupancy sensor. It seems this is a common problem with hyundai's and the accent's were recalled but not the elantra. I suspect the same or similar problem is happening with the 2016 hyundai elantra occupant sensor.

Passenger airbag light in the center has never worked properly since I've gotten the car, the light never used to go off when an adult was sitting in the passenger seat which means the airbags were disabled. Now the dashboard airbag light has been illuminated constantly for about 6 months and does not ever go off, meaning all airbags are disabled. It came on upon starting up my vehicle and has not gone off since. This is very dangerous and a common problem with this car, but is not reported properly via the federal safety agency, instead many complaints are made via forums. Also, when driving at night and my headlights are on, turning the wheel and using the blinker causes all dash lights as well as my headlights and brake lights to flicker briefly. Rear windows are not able to be rolled down via the main control on the driver's side, only can be rolled up.

This safety complaint has to do with the b1448 oc sensor mat defect, I have an air bag light on and have used a scan tool and got the code for the b1448 oc sensor mat defect. This issue was given a recall for the hyundai sonata but I have a hyundai elantra and there is no recall but my car faces the same issue. I've read that dealers try to charge as much as $1,000 to fix this issue.

My car has had engine lights go on and off for years on their own, windows that you use one switch for that make a different window go down and then sometimes they don't go up, my brakes haven't released the cruise control at times and now my passenger air bag light won't go off so I can't pass inspection. This is not something I had anything to do with and want it fixed, it's a safety issue

Air bag light came on 2 weeks ago, technician said the code is b1448 passenger seat mat cushion sensor. I am told that all air bags are now disabled and this is a very expensive repair. I see several complaints on this issue in just the latest incident reports. This should be repaired by hyundai at no cost to the consumer.

Air bag light on dash is lit all the time. Dealer has reset the light on two occasions, but it keeps coming back after a few drives in the car. Dealer says the passenger seat occupant sensor is shorted out. Dealer informed me that while the air bag light is lit, the air bags are disabled and will not deploy, even if in an accident. Now I own a car that will not protect me in a crash and is unsafe to drive. Dealer says the only repair is to replace the entire passenger seat bottom costing over $1400. The car is not worth much more than that, but it is worth alot to me because I need it for transportation.
