AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AT APPROXIMATELY 40K MILES THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR CAME ON WHILE THERE WAS A CHILD PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT. IT ONLY CAME ON WHEN MY 15 YEAR OLD WOULD SIT THERE AND WE WERE MOVING. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND THE FAULT WAS RESET. THE DEALER STATED IF IT REOCCURED THEY WOULD ORDER A NEW SENSOR. IT DID REOCCUR THIS TIME WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A 160 LB. 5'5 MAN IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED. I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THE PART CAME IN THEY WOULD CALL. THE DEALER NEVER CALLED. DUE TO LACK OF TIME ON MY PART I DID NOT FOLLOW UP FOR TWO YEARS AND THE LIGHT WAS ON THE ENTIRE TIME. WHEN I DID GO BACK THE DEALER STARTED THAT WAS TO LONG AGO AND NOW THE PART IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY DESPITE BEING DOCUMENTED AS BAD WHILE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. NOW WHILE SEARCHING FOR A PART ONLINE I FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS. WHY DON'T THE DEALER FIX IT?

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
ON HIGHWAY HEADING TO HUTCHINSON RIVER PARKWAY FROM THROGS NECK BRIDGE IN THE BRONX AND THE ENGINE STOPPED RESPONDING TO THE PRESSURE ON THE PEDAL. WE WERE IN HEAVY TRUCK AND CAR TRAFFIC BUT WERE ABLE ,BY LUCK TO GET INTO A STRIPPED AREA TO STOP. WE LOOKED IN THE MANUAL AND FOUND WE COULD RESTART THE ENGINE BY TURNING THE IGNITION ON AFTER SHUTTING IT DOWN. THIS HAPPENED 3 KMORE TIMES UNTIL WE WERE ABLE TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE AND WERE ADVISED BY A LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE . WE EVENTUALLY GOT TOWED TO OUR HOME ON LONG ISLAND BY AAA . LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER SENT US TO ATLANTIC HYUNDAI FOR REPAIR.

I HAVE SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND BECAUSE ITS A WHOLE NEW CREW, THE OLD CREW WAS LET GO, THEY DO NOT WANT TO HELP WITH GETTING ANOTHER CAR FOR ME. TONY, THE SALESPERSON,. DID TRY BY PASSING ME ON TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY CANNOT HELP ME. MY CAR NEEDS TO BE PAID DOWN SOME BEFORE ANY DEALERSHIP WILL TOUCH IT.

AIR BAGS, SUSPENSION
I HAVE AN 06 HYUNDAI AZERA AND THERE WAS A RECALL MADE BACK IN 2013 FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT WIRING HIRENESS. THE DEFECT WOULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG NOT TO DEPLOY. WOULD I BE ABLE TO GET THIS DEFECT FIXED NOW? I DID NOT OWN THE VEHICLE BACK IN 2013, AS I DID NOT OWN IT UNTIL MAY OF 2015. IT IS SHOWING THE SIGNS OF THE DEFECT. THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND IT IS THROWING ERROR CODES B1489&B1495, WHICH IS FOR THE PASSENGER OCCUPUTANT SYSTEM. I ALSO HAVE THIS NOISE LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE IN THE SUSPENSION. EVERY LITTLE BUMP CAUSES A RATTLING NOISE. I CAN NOT TELL IF IT IS THE FRONT OR BACK, BUT I AM ASSUMING IT IS THE BACK SINCE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS AS WELL, PLUS I HAVE REPLACED ALL FRONT END PARTS. AND THE NOISE STILL EXISTS.

NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 18V-026 SAYS THE AZERA ABS ELECTRONICS CAN COLLECT WATER AND SHORT OUT CAUSING A FIRE WHILE THE CAR IS IN A GARAGE OR NOT BEING USED. BUT FAILURE OF THE ELECTRONICS BECAUSE OF WATER LEAKING INTO THE SYSTEM ALSO AFFECTS THE OPERATION OF THE ABS WHERE IT CANNOT WORK WHEN NEEDED. THE RECALL ADDRESSES REWIRING THE ABS SO NO POWER IS PRESENT IN THE WATER LEAKING ABS MODULE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT OPERATING AND PARKED BUT DOES NOT ADDRESS FAILURE OF THE ABS WITHOUT FIRE FROM WATER LEAKAGE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. HYUNDAI SHOULD REPLACE ALL AZERA ABS SYSTEMS THAT ARE PRONE TO WATER LEAKAGE TO PRECLUDE THE ABS SYSTEMS NOT WORKING PROPERLY IN AND DURING BRAKING EMERGENCIES. UNATTENDED VEHICLE FIRES ARE ONE THING, ABS FAILURE TO OPERATE AS DESIGNED BECAUSE OF WATER LEAKAGE DURING EMERGENCY BRAKING RISKS MY LIFE AND THOSE OF OTHERS. THE FAULTY COMPONENTS SHOULD BE REPLACED TO PRECLUDE ABS FAILURES WHEN EMERGENCY ABS BRAKING IS NEEDED.
