Hyundai MPG Program

In November of 2012 Hyundai announced that procedural errors at their testing operations in Korea resulted in overstated fuel economy ratings for approximately 600,000 Hyundai vehicles sold between 2010 and 2012. Hyundai sincerely apologized and wanted to make things right, introducing the Hyundai MPG program. This wonderful program is very simple to use and receive your reimbursement. 

First determine if your vehicle was affected by clicking here. If your vehicle model is on the list then your next step is to enter your VIN (vehicle identification number, to find your VIN look in your door jam or on your insurance card) into the reimbursement estimator. The reimbursement estimator will estimate your initial reimbursement and then you will fill in all your information to enroll in the program. Your next step will be to go into your local Hyundai service center to have them verify your mileage. If you come to Eckert Hyundai you don't even need an appointment, it will only take about 10-15 minutes then you will be on your way! You will receive a card in the mail from Hyundai with your reimbursement. Hyundai's faq page says you will receive reimbursement within 120 days of the claim submission, most Eckert Hyundai customers receive their reimbursement in about a month. The original policy was to reload the same card for each claim submission, however their policy has changed to sending a new card every time. The next time you want to submit a claim just stop by your local Hyundai Service center and they will submit your  mileage for you and you will get a new card in the mail.

Just released on December 23, 2013 was a new option to receive a one-time lump sum payment or you can decide to remain in the lifetime reimbursement program. The details on the one-time lump sum payment have not been announced yet. This option will be great for owners who it is not convenient to drive to a Hyundai Service center. Initial estimates show that if you own your vehicle for several years you will receive more through the lifetime program.
