Replying to: nthe (Oct 23, 2007 2:03 pm) Your dealership's management should review the Magnuson-Moss Act, a federal statute that prohibits a manufacturer from requiring a consumer to use a service or maintenance item from the manufacturer, unless such service or item is provided free of charge under its warranty, or unless the Federal Trade Commission waives this prohibition against the manufacturer. So in other words, unless your dealership wants to give free 60k services to Hyundai owners, it should stop telling them that the 60k service must be performed by a Hyundai dealership. |

Replying to: backy (Oct 22, 2006 7:04 pm) I just helped my mother with the purchase of an '05 Elantra GT AT with 28,760 miles. The dealer did not have the warranty handbook nor any service records for the car. The title is clean with one previous personal owner. Are there any steps she must take with Hyundai to transfer the warranty? Is there a way to get a copy of the handbook? Are the missing service records an issue? Any help is of course greatly appreciated.

Replying to: pluto8 (Oct 26, 2007 3:21 am) I also got a 2005 Hyundai Elantra and I did not have the Handbook. Call there 800 number tell them what you just said and they will send you the copy of the handbook. They are very nice and eager to help you. As far as the warranty goes you still have the powertrain warranty on it. As for me I am getting an extended warranty for mine. When you were doing the financing did the Finance manager ask you about extended warranties.? Anyway I hope this helps you out. Good Luck with the car. I really love mine. Sweet Ride Nan

my dad's '04 elantra w/ 40K miles broke down this week. it developed trans fluid leak. He took to a local garage the car sat overnight by the morning the garage said it was very low on fluid. He took the car to the dealer to see if still was covered by the warranty - the dealer said that since my dad hadn't changed his trany fluid at 30K they would not honor the warranty. Does this sound right to anyone?

Replying to: backy (Jun 26, 2008 4:56 pm) I thought that your 04 was a 5-speed like ours.

Replying to: jfh2 (Jun 27, 2008 5:44 am) Personally, I think flushing before 100k is a good idea even if the usage isn't "severe". It's not a huge expense--but a tranny replacement is. |
