10 years, 100,000 miles.
You can either transfer the extended warranty or Hyundai will pro-rate it.
My fun car is a 98 Seebring covertible, Candy Apple Red.
It just turned 21,000 miles.
I spend twice the time washing it as driving it.
At this rate at 100,000 mile warranty would last about 40 + years.
My doc tells me that my warranty is much shorter.
However, once I'm able to begin working on my project vehicle (2003 Xterra w/ 24K miles on it), that will become my steady driver. So...the Azera will get a rest then because I'm gonna wanna ride all over in it when I get it completed!!!
That is a big change. Are you sure?
So far as I know, until reading your post I never heard anyone say that the 5 year/60,000 mile factory bumper to bumper warranty was not transferable to (an unlimited number of) subsequent owners.
But I do realize that after 2003 the 10 year/100,000 mile factory powertrain warranty is no longer transferable within the original purchaser's family.
Like I said before, it's a non-issue with me as I plan on driving my Azera throughout the entire warranty.
If the bumper to bumper did transfer over, then the subsequent owner MIGHT get the remaining balance that's left. Not 100% sure on that one though.
http://www.hyundaiusa.com/global/warranty/warranty.aspx
And why would you only think it MIGHT be transferable? Sounds like your belief may be that the subsequent owner gets NO bumper to bumper warranty whatsoever, even if he buys the used car during the year of its manufacture and with only 100 miles on the odometer
Did you think I was telling you that every subsequent owner would receive full ADDITIONAL 5 years and 60,000 miles? Haha. Now that WOULD be a maker standing behind its product!
It's not a belief...it's a reality, the bumper-to-bumper warranty does NOT go to the subsequent owner, only the powertrain warranty.
As far as the powertrain warranty goes, the original owner gets 10yr/100K miles. Owner number 2 would only get 5yr/60K miles and I'm sure it's not from milage or date of purchase either. So if buyer #2 purchases a 2003 with 40K miles on it...essentially, there would be 1 year left or 20K miles.
If there is any bumper-to-bumper warranty after the original owner...it's not from the manufacturer.
Up to 5 years or 60,000 miles warranty sticks with the car. It covers almost all of the car to the original and subsequent owners.
That part of the warranty has not changed.
Also, what is the true dealer cost on a fully loaded Azera, anyway?
Notice, there is no bumper-to-bumper warranty, it's categorized as new car warranty. The original owner is the only one that would have a new car.
So YOU call Hyundai and make sure you check with them specifically about the NEW CAR WARRANTY and it's tranferability.
As far as true dealer cost on a fully loaded Azera...I would assume you're talking about a Limited with the Ultimate Package...probably around $27K.
The last link on that site, labeled Hyundai Protection Plan has, as paragraph #7 under "Why should I buy a Hyundai Protection Plan?"
7. TRANSFERABLE - To enhance the resale value of your Hyundai, you (the original purchaser) can transfer the Hyundai Protection Plan to one subsequent purchaser.
The Hyundai Protection Plan is the optional extended warranty which is a 100,000 mile 10 year bumper to bumper warranty that IS transferable.
Your reasoning is faulty because you have arrived at the wrong conclusion.
You are wrong about the B2B warranty. And you'd be wrong about that on every new car warranty I can think of, not just Hyundai.
You don't have to fret,guess or wonder about it. Call Hyundai USA if you do not understand their website info.
However, after going to the Hyundai website and reading all the warranty statements...the new car warranty states nothing about transferability while the powertrain warranty specifically states that it's transferable. Please, oh wiser than everyone else, please tell me how I could possibly arrive at the wrong conclusion!
Since you're the one making the statements, why don't YOU call Hyundai and tell us what you find out. Oh yeah, give us a name of the person you spoke to so that we can confirm your findings as well. Personally, I really don't care if any warranty is transferable as I will be using every possible mile available under mine.
Oh yeah, you mean to tell me that if you walked on to Jim's Used Auto lot and bought an '05 Corolla with 20K miles on it, that Toyota would honor 1 more year or 16K miles of a bumper-to-bumper warranty??? You're crazy!
Allmet, that is exactly true!
The warranty stays with the car. Call Toyata if you don't believe it.
That is, unless for some unusual reason the warrranty has been voided due to total loss accident or improper maintenance or repair, or if it was used commercially.
The bumper to bumper warranty is transferable to ALL subsequent owners of a car until the mileage or time limit expires.
Hahahaha! Now besides being a warranty specialist you are a psychiatrist too?
Oh, and if you will re-read the 10 year 100,000 mile factory powetrain warranty (not the extended warranty) you'll discover it is NOT transferable to anyone, not even a family member since after the 2003 model year. You had that backwards.
Ask around, nearly everyone else who understands new car warranties agrees with me. So I am not claiming to be wiser than everyone else.
With you seeming to know all the answers, why post a question?
As I stated earlier, I didn't THINK so, but IF it could...then the subsequent buyer would get the remaining balance of the 5YR/60K mile warranty. I never gave anyone a DEFINITE yes it could or no it couldn't.
At any rate, it seemed like you just wanted an argument, so I argued with you. Since you NEED to have someone tell you that you're right...YOU'RE RIGHT JOE131!!!
The bumper to bumper warranty, which includes the powertrain, is good to all subsequent owners too, up to the 5 year, 60,000 mile limit.
Here is how they actually work:
They include the powertrain.
They do transfer to subsequent owners.
Please, oh please find it in your gracious heart to forgive me Mighty Joe!!!
It was not you being wrong that was shocking. Everyone is wrong once in a while.
What shocked me was your statements about the new car warranty. So, I researched it a little and found accurate facts.
I'm just glad the truth has replaced the mistakes so readers won't get the wrong ideas.
The members of this forum should strive for that, right?
Honestly, I was being to lazy to do the research to answer your question, which led you to do it yourself and find out that without equivocation...that the subsequent buyers get the remaining balance of 5yr/60k miles for both powertrain and b2b warranty. In your searching...did you find out whether or not the roadside assistance warranty is transferrable as well?
5 YEAR / UNLIMITED MILES
24-HOUR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE Covers towing (including accident-related), lock-out, flat tire, and battery failure.
Covers vehicle, regardless if current owner is original or subsequent owner.
At any rate...it'll DEFINITELY be covered by your warranty.
I have visited more than 6 times for warranty services such as rottle in sonroof, driver seat problem, brake...........
However, they couldn't be serious problems to me. I can stand ....
But, I got serious problem in cooling system. Coolant and engine oil are mixing each other. You can see lots of dirty in radiator when you open that cap.
they are never supposed to mix or meet together.
What about in sylinder? We are not sure coolant come thru.
Hyundai called me seriously when they got my claim. Actually, I wrote a letter to them with some verification pictures.
In korea, I saw more than 60 azera with this problem. You can see that in www.clubtg.com if you can understand Korean.
if you want those picture, just sendme a email..
Have you noticed any steam coming from your exhaust. I had a Chevy pickup with a head gasket leak and it sould steam out the exhaust until the engine heated up and "sealed" the head gasket leak.
You might want to report this to the NHSTA.
IS this a 2006 Leather seat issue? Any info would be great!
the problem didn't go away started again at about 6000 miles
and was replaced under warranty. The third time Toyota said NO.....I had to take them to arbitration and they lost.
Got rid of the car after that.....I had a GL350L after that and no problems after 42000 miles. I now own a 2007 Azera
and absolutely no problems. I would take your problem to the dealer and have it replaced under warranty
Sounds like a first time issue (haven't seen anyone else post about it). Could have been a manufacturer's "defect" from the assembly line. Hopefully, the dealer can fix it right the first time and you won't have any other issues with it. Good luck.
Thanks again,

My sunshade has been replaced twice.
It's a bear of a job.
Rear seats and rear side airbags must be removed.
Rear shelf cover removed.
Sunshade removed.
Reverse process for install.
Make sure new unit is installed with top guide wheels tight against glass when in up position.
If not, the fabric will crease after short time.
I thought some of you forum readers may be interested.
Mike (allmet33), I know you are working on customizing your grille. Have you seen this?
Don">
Has anybody else had this problem? It is very annoying since I have to take off work to take the car in. If the "air bag" light is on, does that mean the air bags will not deploy in an accident? I hate to drive if the airbags won't work.
I am not happy.
It is an inconvenience, but as my momma used to say...a little rain must fall.
I'll be taking mine back in and this time, they informed me that they would need to keep the car and pretty much disassemble the interior to access the air bag control module and get to all the sensors so they can test all the connections and relays. :sick:
Good luck with yours, I'll post the results after I've taken it in.
I did always wonder how the grille would look if it was all black (for the most part).
The grille I was planning on has taken a back seat to some other things for the time being. However...I'll be back on that project soon.
Thanks for the heads up!!!
For now, my plan is to purchase a grille from someone that has changed theirs out and make my own. The chrome mesh material can be ordered for like $75. After that, it'll just be time and patience.
That is the route I'm taking and you won't have to remove your grille until you've gotten the custom one done.
Perfect condition.
