Recall 02V-105: 1999–2001 Hyundai Sonata, 2001 Hyundai XG300
HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY recall for air bags, reported to NHTSA on Apr 9, 2002, covering about 145,355 vehicles.
The problem
On certain passenger vehicles, an intermittent condition that leads to the supplemental restraint system (Srs) air bag warning light illumination could result from motion of the side impact air bag wiring harness and side impact air bag wiring harness connector which mount to the adjustable seat cushion assembly. This condition only relates to the side impact air bags and could prevent air bag deployment during a crash where such deployment should occur.
The risk
Non-deployment of the SRS side impact air bag could increase the risk of injury during a side impact crash.
The fix
Dealers will more securely fasten the side impact air bag wiring harnesses and connectors to the vehicle's front seat cushion frames. Owner notification began may 28, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact hyundai at 1-800-633-5151.
Notes
Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
