America’s Best Warranty
What makes our 10-year warranty American’s Best Warranty? It isn’t about what the warranty covers, it’s about how we build our Hyundai models to make them more reliable so the warranty is merely a safety net. Hyundai started the Drive Defects to Zero plan which involves employing a skilled team entrusted with finding, studying, and correcting issues in the vehicle. This means each model goes through a rigorous testing process to ensure we deliver the best car we possibly can to our consumers.

America’s Best Warranty is more than a safety net to provide you with a little peace of mind, it is a promise from Hyundai that the car you will be driving and trusting with your precious cargo is at the top of its game and held at the highest standards.
