Airbag light came on in 2011 and was told entire seat had to be removed to stop light. Could not afford the cost. Returned to dealer again in 2014 as had read connector under seat might be disconnected which could be causing the problem and dealer found this to be true and secured the connected and the light went out; however, within few weeks, light came back on and has remained on since. I did not ask the dealer about it again, knowing I would have to pay for a major take-out of the seat to correct. Overall, the light has been on for at least 5 years. I am the original owner. The light came on before mileage was 51,131 and mileage is currently 83,486. I cover the light with electrical tape as it disturbs me that I can't get it easily fixed. I doubt if the airbags work but don't know for sure and probably won't unless I have an accident or a recall is made for the dealer to fix the problem.

Tl* the contact owns a 2004 hyundai xg350. The contact stated that the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who reset the code several times and replaced the top portion of the driver side seat. In addition, an air bag wire failed. The vehicle was taken to a second dealer who reset the code, but the failure recurred and the air bag warning light remained illuminated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.

For the last six months the "check airbag" light has been coming on. I took it to the clay hyundai dealership in norwood. They replace the airbag wiring harness ($160). A month later the "check airbag" light came bace on. The dealer then cleared the code and told me if it continues to come back on that I would need a new main wiring harness. The "check airbag" then came back on. Then the dealer replaced the main wiring harness ($1,200). And now the "check airbag" has come bag on and the dealer is telling me that they may need to replace the side airbag in the driver's seat for an additional cost. First this is getting too expensive and second hyundai is neglecting the safety of their drivers because, I'm told, that the airbags will not deploy in a crash if the "check airbag" is on.

Air bag sensor light came on. New sensor was put in under warranty. A year later the sensor light came back on. It was replace at my cost ($250) because it was out of warranty. A year later the sensor light comes back on. It was not fix, however, when the timing belt was replace in 2013 at 60,000 the sensor light went off. After recent dealer computer repairs in march of 2015 the sensor air bag light came back on april 2015. My neighbor has the identical model and has the same problem with the sensor light.there are blogs on line that discuss the failures of the air bag sensor. I don't know if the air bag works or not.

Purchased nice xg350l test drove ,purchased, upon delivery SRS light on dealer tom ahl hyundai mentioned a tsb tech svc bulletin for the "fix" found out 2 yrs later there fix was a zip tie to re-bind the connector under the drivers seat , upon the light coming back on and service dept told me $2000 for fix since connectors are now loose...why is their no investigation. Poor connector has failed and many of these are having the same poor engineering/poor design of connector that is now making good contact due to "seat being moved"

Nothing happened. The air bag light went on. I kept driving it to see if it would go out. Took the car to local garage and after a $350. Charge I drove it home and light was off. Next day light was back on. Took it back and was told the spring mechanism in air bag wasn't working. I took it to a hyundai garage and they quoted a price of 1600 plus labor to fix it. After looking it up on the internet it seems hyundais have had many problems with air bags. Why not any recalls? I love my car but $2000. To fix a 2004 with 78000 miles seems like a lot of money. Should I fix it?

My airbag warning light comes on and will not go out. I took my car to capitol heights hyundai dealer in maryland and was told that my passenger airbag did not have suspension. The cost to repair this will be $3400.00. I believe that this should be a recall on the airbag on the passenger side. Was also told that there is a part to the airbag that is a recall but of course my code did not fall within this repair. There must be a better way to handle this.

The air bag light came on when I moved the passenger seat. Mechanics can make the light go out by resetting the codes...however the light comes back on after a while and always when the passenger seat is moved. There are a great many similar complaints for hyundai xg350 2003, 2004 and 2005, yet the company does nothing about it. Haven't they learned from gm? Also where is the federal safety agency . Surely they see these complaints all over the web? I'm told that the air bags will not deploy while the light is on. This is a great concern - but I can't afford to pay $1,000 every time it needs to be reset by a hyundai dealer. The federal safety agency ---please put some pressure on hyundai to issue a recall to permanently fix the problem. By the way I'm bringing my 2004 xg350 to the dealer tomorrow to replace the subframe which is rotting - this does have a recall issued.
