NHTSA Campaign ID:  02V105000
Component:  Interior Systems:Passive Restraint:Air Bag:Side Door
Manufacturer:  Hyundai Motor America
Year:
2001
Make:
Hyundai
Model:
XG300
Recall Date:
04/15/2002
Potential Number of Units Affected: 17342
Manufactured: 07/2000 - 07/2001
Defect Summary:
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 driver and passenger seat mounted side impact air bags and could prevent seat mounted side impact air bag deployment during a crash where such deployment should occur.
Consequence Summary:
Non-deployment of the SRS side impact air bag could increase the risk of injury during a crash where side impact air bag deployment is intended.
Corrective Summary:
Dealers will more securely fasten the side impact air bag wiring harnesses and connectors to the vehicle's front seat cushion frames. Hyundai has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. 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.
