Warranty Help???? A.S.A.P.

[Darren M. Street]

Dear helpful people,

I have heard that because Hyundai knowingly under rated and advertised the horsepower for the 2.0 liter engines to be at 140 hp when in fact they are closer to 123 hp. Hyundai is extending the warranty period for an extra year or 20,000km. If any body can tell me how to get this agreement please

You should have received a notice by mail -- but you can call the Hyundai warranty phone number (800-633-5151) and give them your VIN to see if you qualify.

If I remember correctly, only the original owners are eligible, and the benefit given varies by model and year. I also think I remember that the major warranty aspects weren't extended -- I think we had a choice of an additional year of roadside service or some such.

Good luck,
Harry

I've received a letter from Hyundai about that extended warranty. You could choose one from three warranties. I think you could call Consumer Affairs in California and ask for it. Only thing that matters is the purchase date of your car. The number is posted in www.hyundaiusa.com, and just click on owners? or something.
