How to Claim a Hyundai Engine Recall

When you purchase a vehicle, you do not expect to get a recall, but sometimes it happens. This can be related to any part of the interior, exterior, and even the engine. Recalls can also be related to a variety of products like:

• Skincare
• Medication
• Food items

One of the most popular manufacturers for sedans and SUVs is Hyundai. While they have often been listed as dependable, like other brands, they have suffered a few recalls. More recently, the Hyundai engine recall where several models that had the Nu engine was having unwarranted engine stalls and fires that were not related to a collision. This caused an investigation and then later a recall on certain models.

With the help of DoNotPay, searching your Hyundai engine recall is much easier to find, so you know if it affects you and what you need to do to get it fixed. Below is more information on this recall and how DoNotPay can help you get the service you need for your Hyundai, making it safe and dependable.

How Do I Make a Claim for the Hyundai Engine Recall?

If you need to make a claim for the Hyundai Engine Recall, you need to go through the following steps:

1. Search to see if your Hyundai was affected. You can do this online through the Hyundai system, but it is not as easy to navigate. With DoNotPay's Search Recall Monitor, have your model and year available, as well as the VIN number for your search.
2. If your Hyundai Model has been affected, DoNotPay can assist you with scheduling a recall service with your local dealership. Follow the steps below to make this request.
3. In the meantime, you need to determine if you need to continue driving your Hyundai or if a rental car is available. Contact your local Hyundai dealership to see if a loaner car is available or if there is an agreement already established with the local car rental facility to get a rental.

If you attempt to do this process on your own without the assistance of DoNotPay, you could get wrong information, keeping you from a recall that you actually have. In order to get the best and quickest answers about your recall, you should use the system in place by DoNotPay.

What Happened With the Hyundai Engine Recall?

In 2021, it was found that several Hyundai models from different years were experiencing engine fires. The models affected were the 2017 Sonata Hybrid and the 2017 Santa Fe that first experienced an engine stall and then non- collision-related engine fires to follow. These were happening in vehicles that carried the Nu engines and needed to come into the dealership to be repaired.

Who Is Eligible for the Hyundai Engine Recall?

When there is a Hyundai engine recall, certain models and years are listed on the recall report. There are also VIN numbers associated. The manufacturer will try to make contact with the current owners of these vehicles, especially if it affects some that are a few years old. If you have not been notified, but want to see if you are affected, DoNotPay makes it easy to search this information through the recall search monitor.

Do I Immediately Get a Recall if I Report My Product?
