Extended Warranty Programme Available For Selected Older Hyundai Models
Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HSDM) is now offering an Extended Warranty Programme for selected Hyundai models with manufacturer’s warranty that has lapsed. This newly launched Extended Warranty Programme aims to offer Hyundai customers peace of mind as they keep their vehicles beyond 5 years, after the expiry of the manufacturer’s warranty.
The Hyundai models that will enjoy this extended warranty are AD/MD Elantra, LF Sonata, TL/LM Tucson, DM Santa Fe and TQ Starex. Said models should have expired manufacturer’s warranty no longer than 8 years from the manufacturing date, and with a travelled mileage of under 300,000 km on the 5th year from the date of purchase date.
The extended warranty will function just like a new car’s warranty but subject to yearly renewal and will only cover mileage of not more than 30,000 km a year.
“Most extended warranty programmes by a car brand are offered by premium and luxury car brands but we are offering this programme for Hyundai cars as we are confident of the quality of our vehicles and we want to help our customers maintain their cars longer with peace of mind,” said Mr Low Yuan Lung, Managing Director of HSDM.
The programme has an annual renewal fee of RM1,280, and offers extended warranty on internal and primary components of the transmission system as well as other electrical components of the engine, transmission, motoring, and modular parts of the vehicles. It also covers complimentary repairs and part replacement while under warranty. The coverage limit per claim is limited at RM10,000. However, any item that has been claimed before can be claimed again should it be proven faulty, with a claim of up to RM50,000 on the total aggregate, until it is fulfilled.
All vehicles registered under this programme must have a good service record with Hyundai authorised service centres. Owners are also required to send in their vehicles to an authorised service centre for a routine service according to HSDM’s recommended service interval.
This programme is introduced as part of the company’s ‘Geared for Distinction’ promise to deliver distinctive products and services to its customers. This warranty programme is currently only available at Sime Darby Auto Hyundai (SDAH) branches but will soon be extended to the other authorised service centres nationwide.
