Hyundai Warranty Overview — All Coverage at a Glance
Hyundai offers one of the most comprehensive new vehicle warranty packages in the automotive industry. Here’s the full coverage summary:
| Coverage Type | Duration | What It Covers |
|---|---|---|
| Powertrain Limited Warranty | 10 Years / 100,000 Miles | Engine, transmission, transaxle, drivetrain components |
| New Vehicle Limited Warranty | 5 Years / 60,000 Miles | Bumper-to-bumper coverage on most vehicle systems |
| Anti-Perforation Warranty | 7 Years / Unlimited Miles | Corrosion perforation of body sheet metal panels |
| Roadside Assistance | 5 Years / Unlimited Miles | Towing, flat tire, battery jump, fuel delivery, lockout |
| EV Battery Warranty (IONIQ models) | 10 Years / 100,000 Miles | High-voltage battery — capacity & defect coverage |
The 10-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Warranty — What It Really Means
This is the coverage that earned Hyundai the “America’s Best Warranty” reputation. A decade of powertrain protection covers the components most likely to require expensive repairs — engine internals, transmission, and drivetrain. For Northwest Indiana drivers who put serious miles on their vehicles, this is significant peace of mind.
What the powertrain warranty covers:
- Engine block, cylinder head, all internally lubricated parts
- Transmission and transaxle case, all internally lubricated parts
- Transfer case on AWD/4WD models
- Drive axles, driveshaft, constant velocity joints
- Seals and gaskets for covered components
5-Year/60,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty (Bumper-to-Bumper)
The 5-year/60,000-mile warranty covers virtually every component from bumper to bumper — this is the broad daily-use coverage that protects against defects in materials or workmanship on most of your vehicle’s systems.
Typically covered under bumper-to-bumper:
- Electrical systems (sensors, wiring, modules)
- Air conditioning and heating systems
- Infotainment and navigation systems
- Brakes (defects — not normal wear)
- Suspension components
- Fuel system components
- Steering system
What’s NOT Covered by Hyundai’s Warranty
Knowing what isn’t covered is just as important as knowing what is. These items are considered normal wear and maintenance and are not included under warranty:
Tires, brake pads & rotors (wear), wiper blades, filters, belts, spark plugs, light bulbs, oil changes, clutch wear, trim/upholstery wear
Damage from accidents, misuse, modifications, off-road use beyond design intent, or failure to perform required maintenance per the owner’s manual
Is the Hyundai Warranty Transferable to a New Owner?
Yes — partially. This is one of the most important things to understand when buying a used Hyundai:
| Coverage | Original Owner | Subsequent Owner |
|---|---|---|
| Powertrain | 10 Years / 100,000 Miles | 5 Years / 60,000 Miles |
| Bumper-to-Bumper | 5 Years / 60,000 Miles | Remainder of original term |
| Anti-Perforation | 7 Years / Unlimited Miles | Remainder of original term |
| Roadside Assistance | 5 Years / Unlimited Miles | Not transferred |

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Hyundai really have America’s Best Warranty?
Yes. Hyundai’s 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty for the original owner is one of the longest in the industry among mainstream brands. When combined with the 5-year bumper-to-bumper and roadside assistance, it remains one of the most comprehensive packages available.
Does the warranty cover oil changes and routine maintenance?
No. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship — not routine maintenance items like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pads, filters, or wiper blades. Hyundai does offer a complimentary maintenance plan on some new vehicles — ask our team for current program details.
Can I get warranty work done at any Hyundai dealer?
Yes. Any authorized Hyundai dealer can perform warranty repairs. If you’re near Merrillville, Crown Point, Valparaiso, or Portage, Webb Hyundai Merrillville at 9236 Indianapolis Blvd is your closest certified service center.
Will aftermarket parts or modifications void my Hyundai warranty?
Modifications can void warranty coverage on affected systems. For example, an aftermarket tune that causes engine damage may void powertrain coverage on that component. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act protects you in some cases — consult our service team if you have specific concerns before modifying your vehicle.
Is the IONIQ 5 or IONIQ 6 battery covered under warranty?
Yes. Hyundai’s EV battery warranty covers the high-voltage battery for 10 years/100,000 miles for defects and for capacity retention (battery capacity dropping below a defined threshold). This applies to IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, and other Hyundai EV models. Confirm the exact capacity threshold with our service team at the time of service.
