The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Azera. The contact stated that the passenger-€™s side air bag warning light indicated that the air bag was off with a passenger seated in the passenger-€™s seat. The contact initially took the vehicle to an independent mechanic and was informed that the air bag sensor had failed and needed to be replaced. The contact called the dealer who informed her that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 98,000.

On January 19,2023 my air bag light and check engine light came on in my Azera 2012 I took my car to the Hyundai dealership center in Salisbury Maryland they said after doing the diagnostic my car was going to need seat cushion for airbag light and for the door latch and will cost me with having a warranty $3265 dollars. There is no recall on the car however the Hyundai Motor Company recalled my make and year as of May 22 2012 for occupant detection system may fail to properly differentiate whether the front passenger seat occupant is an adult or a child or a child restraint seat since my car was manufactured in May 14 of 2012 it does not fit in that recall however, what if my car isn-€™t recalled they say it could be recalled later my concern is I would like it to be covered under that recall for my car as of May 22, 2012 I feel that my car was not built up in those airbags in the standard that should be since my car was manufactured seven days before the actual recall date I would like Hyundai motor company to take care of all expenses for the the safety, and the fixing of the seat cushion as well as the door latch I feel that there is a safety issue while driving with the light going on and off and the dashboard blinking specially without the passenger side door latch and seat not working right, it wont detect a problem, or possibly the airbag could come out, it has been confirmed by the dealership Pohanka Hyundai Of Salisbury, Maryland, that the components were inspected and they were no insurance or police. Just a code popped up in the car dash in the car dashboard computer. I would ask that you guys would look into this and see that the manufacture independently conducts a safety recall on this and pays all costs of the safety recall and please fix it I can be contacted at 757-894-8324. Again thank you.

I purchased a 2012 hyuandai Azera in July 2012, the car has only 30,000 miles the vehicle has been garage kept and well maintained. Two week ago I noticed the dash was splitting around the area where the air bag is located (passenger side). Took the car to route 60 Hyundai, service manager sad they wouldn't cover under extended warranty, however it would cost $2,600 to repair, the part is $1,600 labor is $1,000. I don't have that kind of money. This defect was a problem in the 2008 model of Azera, it is a design flaw and should be covered. What if this airbag deploys while I'm driving? there is a reason this area is weak and splitting around the airbag poor design or workmanship.....

My wife ran of the highway at about 50mph traveled a short distance in the ditch and struck the side of a driveway where it joined the road, flew over the driveway landing on the other side causing a compression fracture of 2 vertebrae and although the Azera was a total loss with the front suspension pushed back 8" and the roof buckled, none of the airbags were inflated. I can help but think that her injuries would have been less if these had worked. The accident took place at hwyff and county road 170 joplin mo.

At that time the accident occurred, my wife took my daughter to school by my car. According to my wife, when she almost parked the car in parking lot of school, suddenly the car began to be accelerated without pushing accelerate pedal. She pushed the brake pedal continuously, but it never worked. Car turned right with full speed, and crashed into a tree behind the car and stopped. In crash, right side airbag burst out and front right side of my car was fully broke up. My wife and my daughter were so shocked and frightened. For a while they can't do anything and my wife will not be able to drive any more.
