....are Hyundai's original manufacturer's warranties (specifically on 2005-2006 Elantras and '06 Sonatas) transferable to second owners? I thought I had heard that they weren't, at least at one time, but not sure now.

only the original owner gets the 10yr 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. the second owner gets the remainder of the 5 yr 60,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty.

unless it is a 2003 or older model and you are a family member, right?

let me repeat this for everyone:
ONLY THE ORIGINAL OWNER GETS THE 10 YR/ 100,000 MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY.
once you transfer the title to a second owner, the only warranty that transfers is the 5 yr/60K.
this is regarless of whether the second owner is a family member or model year.

That is not correct:
10 YEAR / 100,000 MILES
POWERTRAIN PROTECTION Covers most engine & transaxle components.
Covers repair or replacement of powertrain components (i.e. selected Engine and Transmission/Transaxle components), originally manufactured or installed by Hyundai that are defective in material or factory workmanship, under normal use and maintenance. Coverage applies to Original Owner only effective with 2004 Model Year and newer model year vehicles. On 1999-2003 Model Years, coverage applies to Original Owner and immediate family members (i.e. wife, husband, daughter, son, stepdaughter, stepson).
Second and/or subsequent owners have powertrain components coverage under the 5 year / 60,000 mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Excludes coverage for vehicles in commercial use (i.e. taxi, route delivery, delivery service, rental, etc.).

Excellent post Backy, as usual. But since yours are usually excellent, that makes excellent your average.
So, thank you for your average response.

Hi
I am a new member. I have to ask a question and I dont know where to start. I just brought a 2005 Elantra. I know I have the rest of the manufactured warranty. Here is the question. I want to buy an extended warranty and gap insurance where do I start and can you by both at the same time? I have been using all my search engines and I am still trying to figure out who is the best.
Can anyone please tell me what they think about this? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nan
