It is clearly a hyundai problem and they need to issue a recall for the…

    I was driving east to an ave, but another driver hit me on the passenger side. When the driver hit my car we spinned half way. The passenger sitting on the passenger side got hurt on her arm. The accident was sort of big. The car door on passenger side and the door behind the passenger was dented in. Getting hit that hard should have deployed the airbag and the hyundai emergency calling system. However none of them…
