2015 Hyundai Sonata: airbag warning light

Filed Dec 16, 2025 · Electrical, Engine · GA

i've had my 2015 hyundai sonata now for A year. i took it to the hyundai place to have recalls on the security fixed. and told them about the valve cover gasket leaking. they said they fixed it. however every since i took it to the dealership i have had nothing but problems. my car makes a rattling noise when i accelerate, i smell a strong gas smell occasionally at random times but always while driving. my driver brake light has never worked, my driver headlight keeps blowing, my airbag light is now coming on randomly, my car has a bag vibration while going down the road, when i let off the gas it stops and i have replaced tires and still it won't go away no matter what i have done to fix it , and there has been many times after i return home the smell of something burning as off something is on fire is coming from my car. i have even been in panick thinking something today home was on fire but the smell was coming from my car. and others have even stated they smelled it as well. i've already taken out two loans to fix the valve cover gasket and the fuel pump filter, i can not keep taking out loans to fix problems that appears to be problems from the manufacturer and same problems others have had due to malfunctioning issues. i have children that ride in my car, i would hate for someone to get hurt or worse bc of manufacturing problems. then hyundai would have a bigger problem on their hands.

The air bag warning light illumination. Dealer replaced the "clock spring" in steering wheel. This part was recalled for all like vehicles through 2014 and warranty as extended to 100,000 miles or 14 years. Model year 2015 was not included in the recall, yet the same part failed thereby making the driver's front air bag inoperable. It should have been included in the recall. I requested reimbursement from the manufacturer in the amount of $638.50 but was told the vehicle was no longer under warranty. No vehicle should br driven without properly working air bags.

Engine burns 2 quarts of oil a week. Took it in for oil consumption tests and Hyundai figures out ways to not replace these faulty GDI Engines. Also car has a strong gas smell inside car. Maybe gas leaking. Airbag warning light has been on for years. Took it to the dealer in the past they said it's ok(Hub Hyundai Katy TX) but I don't feel confident.

The engine rattles and knocks and has stalled out multiple times, crossing traffic and stopping. The airbag light is illuminated on dash. When I’m driving the steering sticks in corners badly I’ve taken to Hyundai and they supposedly did an update to keep it from doing it but it’s still grabbing and sticking very dangerous.

My air bag light kept on lighting up on my dashboard, it kept lighting on and off for several months and now it is a steady light. Every time I start the car now it's a steady light.

I've been having an oil consumption issue on my vehicle. I've been getting my oil changed on time regularly & the oil seems to burn off extremely faster than it should. Every time I get my oil changed I've been told that there aren't any leaks. Now my check engine light is on & my engine is shaking. Ive only had my car for 3 years & my air bag light came on out of no where. Also my gear shift seems to lock up & wont release from park to drive

Took vehicle to dealership for service and mentioned when my wife drives the car the air bag light intermittently comes on while she is driving straight down the highway. It will just come on, and go off. No rhyme or reason to it. The airbag light will not come on in this fashion while I am driving the vehicle. Technicians looked at the vehicle and checked the clock-spring, and then said air bag ECM and sensor (srscm) modules need to be replaced. This vehicle has not been subject to any jump starting, has the original battery, and not involved in any frontal crashes. Car has been well-maintained. Believe there is a manufacturing defect in these parts.

Airbag light of driver side is light up on dash possible chances that airbag might not inflate at the time of crash. And passenger seat belt light keep flashing even though there is no one on passenger side.
