Seat belt light came on around 137k mike's. Took to get tested at dealership. Said bad seat buckles on drivers and passenger sides. 147 to test it and 500 to fix. Found out the previous owner already replaced buckles 5 years ago. Called hyundai directly and they said they can't do anything about it even though there are hundreds of similar reports online.

My airbag light is on and won't go off, so i looked into it and it can cause the bags to deploy at any given time or not at all. This is very unsettling, and not safe. Please recall this.

The air bag light came on in my 2007 hyundai elantra. When i took it to the dealership, they said that there was some kind of electrical failure in the driver's side buckle assembly. I have heard of similar issues in 2006-2008 sonatas. I am concerned that this may be a factory defect. *tr

My airbag lights came on and i took it to the dealer. It took them over two hours to find the problem: the entire floor harness is corroded from some sort of "meltdown" and needs to be replaced. Cost = $4800. I feel this is a major design flaw in the vehicle and hyundai should replace the floor harness as a goodwill warranty issue. There is no way a 6 year old car with only 35,000 miles on it should be experiencing…

My 2007 hyundai elantra was supposedly previously a part of hyundai recall number 092 for brake light switch failure. According to hyundai customer service this problem was repaired on march 09, 2010. I understand now there is a new recall out there for the same issue. I did not receive any notification of this recall that was issued in april of 2013. So i am assuming that according to hyundai my vehicle is not a…
