Hyundai Imports From The US: No Warranty Coverage

Dear Readers:

On December 3, 2007, Hyundai Auto Canada Corp. issued a statement that it will not honour warranty coverage on any imported Hyundai vehicles. Of course, we all know this is another attempt by the manufacturer to thwart your purchasing power because they won't reduce prices in Canada.

----------------------------------------
Quote from the statement:

Customer Handling Procedures

When a customer requests warranty repairs for an Imported Vehicle, they should be advised as follows:

1. The Imported Vehicle has no warranty coverage in Canada, as it was not sold or distributed by Hyundai Auto Canada Corp.

2. The dealership is able and willing to perform repairs, but the customer will have to pay for these repairs.

3. The customer can return the vehicle to an authorized HMA dealer in the U.S. for warranty repairs.

Our thanks to a UCanImport Subscriber for sharing this information.

Please note that you can purchase 3rd party warranty coverage for your Hyundai imports. 3rd party warranties offer great flexibility and can be customized to meet your needs. Make sure that the price of the warranty purchase more than justifies the savings on your Hyundai import.
