| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2004 hyundai tiburon gt collided, bumper to bumper, with a stopped passenger vehicle at 5-10 mph. impact was on the driver's side at a 40 degree angle to the vehicle centerline. bumper damage was minor and there were no injuries nor realistic potential for injury. the vehicle's supplemental restraint system (srs) deployed the passenger front airbag even though there was no passenger, presenting a risk of injury to the vehicle's occupants. the driver's front airbag did not deploy. the tiburon's srs computer activated the passenger airbag prematurely and was too sensitive to a minor, non-threatening impact; that is, defective. bumper cover replacement $500, airbag repair $4,500. defective devices are in my possession. hyundai owners with a similar experience are invited to join a potential class action by e-mailing contact@airbagclaims.com, established for this purpose. |
