Maintance Requirements on Line
 
Is there a PDF file on line so to see what maintenance requirements are for
Hyundia's?

I thought this would be helpful to see what the requirements are needed
before buying the next vehicle , as to figure out future maintenance cost.

Thanks
tom

The only thing that's at all unusual about the maintenance schedule is
that the timing belt has to be changed at 60K miles. Other than that,
it's just fluid and filter changes at typical intervals.

So if you don't do everything the maintenance pamphlet says, it won't
void your warranty?

Your link is to a particular dealer's maintenance package. You should not
confuse this with the maintenance requirements prescribed by Hyundai, which
may be fewer or more.

I looked at www.hyundaiusa.com, and I see they've changed things a little.
If you go to this page:

http://www.hyundaiusa.com/owners/myh...cerecords.aspx

you should be able to register and get what you desire. Compare the
manufacturer's requirements with the dealer's services. You'll see
whether you need everything they're pitching or whether you'll need to add
additional services.

It could. Whether it will depends on how reasonable the dealer and
Hyundai choose to be. It they are reasonable, they will assess whether
any missed maintenance is related to the failure in question. If it
isn't related, then they shouldn't deny the warranty coverage. However,
if it is related, then I think they should deny your warranty. After
all, why should I subsidize via higher vehicle costs your unwillingness
to maintain your car?

I logged into my account at hyundaiusa.com and checked out the maintenance
schedule. There is no mention of timing belt changes at all for the 4
cylinder! Also, at the 7500 mile service I was charged to adjust the rear
brakes, which confused the heck out of me, but I paid it....... It's also
not on the Hyundai recommended service.

What year and model do you have? I believe my 06 Sonata calls for rear
brake adjustment, but this is for the drum parking brake, not the disk
service brakes, I believe.

An example of this is that I had a transmission problem with my old
Excel. When I contacted Hyundai about it, they asked about the service
history of the car and specifically about whether the timing belt had
been replaced. It hadn't because I purchased the car used and didn't
have the maintenance schedule, so I didn't know the timing belt needed
to be replaced at 60K miles. However, they covered the transmission
problem anyway, since I had maintained the vehicle properly otherwise
and promised to change the timing belt, which I did before the tranny
work was done. BTW, this occurred at 64K miles, which was out of
warranty for older Hyundais, which only came with a 60K mile warranty.
I'd say that's pretty outstanding customer service.

An example of this is that I had a transmission problem with my old
Excel. When I contacted Hyundai about it, they asked about the service
history of the car and specifically about whether the timing belt had
been replaced. It hadn't because I purchased the car used and didn't
have the maintenance schedule, so I didn't know the timing belt needed
to be replaced at 60K miles. However, they covered the transmission
problem anyway, since I had maintained the vehicle properly otherwise
and promised to change the timing belt, which I did before the tranny
work was done. BTW, this occurred at 64K miles, which was out of
