This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2005 Hyundai XG350. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated while driving, which was a safety concern. The contact felt as if the air bags would deploy. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (courtesy Hyundai, 939 newport ave, pawtucket, ri 02861) where the wire harness and the driver's seat back were diagnosed as the cause of the failure and were replaced. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified and referred the contact to NHTSA. The failure mileage was 37,000.
Driver's air bag light came on in May 2008. I was told it was caused by a loose connector under passenger's seat. It seemed to be corrected but it has happened several times after that and each time I took it in the mechanic was able to get it to turn of. But, now, it is on permanently and the mechanic who I sought in September 2014 to get it to turn off was unable to do so. Approximately during the same timeframe, the radio turns on by itself. Oftentimes it will do so several times before I can get it to turn off.
The airbag light came on 3 months after purchasing the vehicle. Dealer repaired, but it has occurred 6 times total since then. Dealer has replaced the wiring harnesses, front seat, and strapped the harness, but the light has come on again. Service rep informed me last time they had done all they could to fix the problem and that if the light was on the air bags would not work. The light is on again.
I have a 2005 Hyundai XG350. Six months after the vehicle was purchased, the air bag light illuminated. There has been eight attempts to repair this vehicle. The dealer has replaced sensors, plugs, and wiring harness; however, the light continues to illuminate. I have all the repair invoices and diagnoses that were performed. The failure mileage was 11,000 and current mileage is about 48,000.
- the contact states that while driving he can't read the temperature gauge or fan speed located under the radio on the dashboard. The contact only experiences this problem during the day he does not experience it at all at night. The manufacturer stated that they couldn't do anything about it, that is the vehicle's design.
