Navigating the High Desert: Hyundai Warranty Essentials for North Scottsdale Drivers

Hyundai’s warranty is a multi-tiered safety net designed to keep you on the road longer than nearly any other brand on the market.

5-Year / 60,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty

This bumper-to-bumper coverage handles the repair or replacement of most factory-installed components. Whether it’s your high-performance audio system for those long desert drives or the air conditioning system that makes a Scottsdale summer bearable, you’re covered against defects in materials or workmanship.

10-Year / 100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty

This industry-leading protection focuses on the heart of your vehicle—the engine and transmission. Essential coverage includes the cylinder block, timing gears, turbochargers, and transmission gears.

Ownership: This 10-year term is for the original owner; subsequent owners still enjoy a robust 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain limit.

7-Year / Unlimited-Mile Anti-Perforation Warranty

Desert dust and intense UV rays can be surprisingly corrosive over time. This warranty protects against rust-through holes in body panels for seven full years, regardless of how many miles you rack up.

5-Year / Unlimited-Mile 24/7 Roadside Assistance

A breakdown in the remote areas north of Scottsdale can be more than an inconvenience. Hyundai provides 24/7 support across the U.S. and Canada, including:

• Emergency Services: Towing to the nearest dealer, battery jump-starts, and flat tire changes.
• Trip Interruption: If you're more than 150 miles from home and experience a warrantable mechanical failure, Hyundai may reimburse you for meals and lodging while repairs are made.

10-Year / 100,000-Mile Hybrid/EV Battery Warranty

For North Scottsdale drivers choosing an Ioniq or Kona Electric, Hyundai protects the high-voltage battery and power electronics. They even guarantee that the battery will not degrade below 70% of its original capacity during the warranty period.

2026 Model Year: What’s Changed?

If you are shopping for a 2026 Hyundai, it is important to note a shift in maintenance policy. Starting with the 2026 model year, Hyundai has discontinued its Complimentary Maintenance Program. To bridge this gap, our service department at Earnhardt Hyundai North Scottsdale offers tailored prepaid maintenance plans.

Building a relationship with our certified technicians ensures your warranty remains valid and your vehicle stays optimized for the Arizona heat.

Important Note: If you own a 2023, 2024 or 2025 Hyundai, your purchase came with up to 3 years/36,000 miles of free oil changes and tire rotations, and that hasn’t changed.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Hyundai Warranty

Is the Hyundai warranty transferable?

The 5-year/60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty transfers to subsequent owners. However, the 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty is available to the original owner only. Subsequent owners receive a reduced 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Does the Hyundai warranty cover battery replacement?

Standard engine batteries are considered wear items and are not covered under the standard warranty. However, for hybrid and electric vehicles, Hyundai covers the high-voltage battery for 10 years or 100,000 miles, with a capacity guarantee.

What voids a Hyundai warranty?

Skipping scheduled maintenance, unauthorized modifications, racing, off-road use, or general neglect can void your warranty coverage. The best way to protect your coverage is to follow Hyundai's recommended maintenance schedule and have your vehicle serviced at an authorized dealership like North Scottsdale Hyundai.

Does Arizona heat affect my Hyundai warranty?

The Hyundai warranty covers manufacturing defects regardless of your local climate. That said, following your vehicle's recommended maintenance schedule is especially critical in extreme heat environments like Scottsdale. Regular coolant checks, fluid changes, and inspections help keep your engine running strong and your warranty valid.

Does Hyundai have the best warranty in the industry?

Called America's Best Warranty, the numbers back it up. With a 5-year/60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, Hyundai offers longer coverage than most mainstream competitors, including Chevrolet, Volkswagen, and Nissan.
