Description of the problem | There is a recall from feb. 2018-hyundai motor america (hyundai) is recalling certain 2011 sonata vehicles. In the event of a crash, the air bag control unit (acu) may short circuit, preventing the frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags from deploying. There is still no remedy for this issue-8 months later! My airbag light has come on- in addition to this being a safety issue - whether my airbags will deploy in an accident- my vehicle will not pass the mandatory annual state rmv inspection required. How am i to pass inspection so that i can continue to drive this car? |
