Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Airbag light is on, i think this is due to seat belt buckle wiring issue, since light was going on and off for few days (and when i was moving seat belt buckle it was disappearing) i did research tiburon forums and i see that most people experiencing same issue had their seat belt buckle replaced and light reset and that was it. problem with me is that i'm out of warranty. i have called hyundai affairs and reported this issue and they told me that hyundai dealter may and most probably charge me for inspection and fixing issue, since there was no recall on my car. i'm afraid that air bag will not deploy during accident and i think hyundai should pay for fixing it since this is not isolated issue. many other hyundai have same issue. *tr
