Takata recall. Just prior to a hyundai recall in 5/3/16 for a defective gas tank, my "air bag" light went off. Let me back track . In 5/16, my car began leaking gas underneath. So badly, that one day while passing the fire/police station in norfolk, ma the fire chief and his crew began pursuing me. Stopping me in my driveway, I was told about the leak and was told I would have to surrender my car, it was a "safety hazard to (all)." I presented a aaa membership card. The chief himself called and arranged a tow to a local repair shop. After 2 days, I received a letter from hyundai corporation stating that my "gas tank was faulty" and was subject to a "recall". Imagine the timing on that? The national office of hyundai sounded just great on the phone. But when my mechanic said he would not touch the car for fear of complicating the warranty, no one including hyundai would send anyone to tow the car. At my personal peril, I drove to the nearest dealership. As I approached the reception area, all remaining gas gushed out of my car. I was given a beautiful current hyundai to drive as a loaner car; I needed that car for 2 months. When the dealership called to tell me my car was "ready", their advisor issued 2 pages of problems allegedly existing and tried to sell me a new car. I have since had someone else look at my car; none of those problems exist. When I picked up my car from the dealer, I also asked their advisor "why hyundai hadn't fixed the air bag light?" over the 2 mths they had my car. I was told that "hyundai didn't use takata air bags." however, numerous friends of mine driving other models of hyundai have received recalls citing the "takata airbag recall." my passenger air bag is defective. The dealer told me "the bag alone would cost $800. Buy a new car!" what is going on here?

On day the air bag warning light came on on the vehicle and has never gone off. The dealer told me that the air bag control module had failed. The dealer told me the repair would cost $450!. I could not afford to spend that much money to have it fixed. I have already spent over $3000 on repairs for this vehicle and I cannot afford to put any more money it to. From the number of air bag complaints I have seen I think there should be a recall issued.

My santa fe was taken in for service during which time the air bag light was activated. I had it checked by my local hyundai dealer and I was told that the air bag module had failed. I was told that the repair cost was going to be $450. I have already had to spend over $4000 for other repairs on this vehicle and I cannot afford to spend any more. I have read on the internet of numerous complaints of air bag module failures on many different models of hyundai's. Since there have been so many reports of the same problem and it is a safety issue I think that there should be a recall to repair the faulty air bag modules.

When I purchased the car as the second owner in march 2010, I noticed that the airbag light had been a problem from the previous owner. However, the dealer assured me that it was fixed. After purchasing the vehicle in 2010 and before I took ownership I had to leave it with the dealer as the airbag and seat belt lights were on. I have taken the vehicle back to the dealer at least three to four times for the same problems, however was told that there were different codes each time. Was told that I needed to replace the seat belt buckle in order correct the airbag light, however, as of 4/3/12 was told by dealership (herb connolly hyundai) that in need to replace the airbag. Also that the airbag was not under warranty and it usually has to be replaced at 60k miles. When I purchased my vehicle it had 81k miles, given this fact, they should have replaced the airbag prior to me purchasing it. The code that is showing now is b1346 (airbag has high resistance). Dealer refuse to correct the problem at no cost after several attempts to get the problem resolved.
