Just curious if anyone else has gotten these warranties? Personally, I can't ever see having the car long enough to cover 20 years!! But, the 200,000K is realistic.....interesting.

The same dealer probably won't be there in 10 years, let alone 20!

I think they're trying to drum up some serious business. They are relatively new, in that they've only set up shop about 1-1/2 years ago. But from what I've heard they are moving cars quicker than most Hyundai dealers. Thats a little creepy in terms of service in my book. If you are a high volume seller, I gotta wonder how well your service department can hold up.
They may be good to buy from in terms of deals perhaps but I haven't heard a thing about their service. -Edge

Wow, that sounds great. I'm at over 50,000 in 2 1/2 years. That would be the only way the warranty would last me 10 years. I haven't heard that promotion here though. The only thing I've heard are the free oil changes for life, which are actually 4 a year.

Since I'm at 115K (read no mo' warranty) I'd like the 200K deal. Of course the years mean nothing to me the way I put miles on.

I'm putting on around 18,000 miles a year so my powertrain warranty should be bye-bye within five years. I need to slow down....I want to find a problem so I can actually use the warranty!!!

Alrighty a little update for this topic. Kia Mall 205 here in Portland is doing the same thing right now. Only catch is you have to perform all scheduled maintenance at their service facility.

I heard an ad like this on the radio today. I looked up thier site and they have a prominent pop up touting the double waranty. For details they want you to call or email.
I will let you know what I find out. www.colonialhyundaipa.com |

T.S. I got mine a year later in June 2003. I now have close to 57,000 miles on it. You need to get out more and enjoy your Santa Fe. They will only honer 100,000 miles or 10 years, which ever comes first, so you have a year and a half of miles to catch up on.

Of those 68,000+ miles you have left, they are only going to honor 60,000 of them if you have 6 years left, so you'll theoretically have 8,000+ miles left over at the end of 10 years. I say take a nice road trip and enjoy your Santa Fe. You've been driving it way too little.

Got a response from the internet sales person at that dealership. I asked about restrictions / stipulations to gain the double waranty coverage.
Here is her response>>>>> Hi Art, my name is Jennifer and I work at Colonial Hyundai of Downingtown. I am contacting you in reference to the internet request you put in to us. I wanted to let you know the extended warranty is offered at no charge to you. The only stipulation is for the last 100,000 miles the warranty work needs to be done at our store. What kind of vehicle are you interested in? Please call me at (610)873-9000 or email me anytime and let me know I can help. Thanks, have a good day. |

That doesn't sound like a bad deal. I doubt anyone else will want to work on it, since it's not Hyundai that's offering the extended warranty, it's the dealership.

So in a nutshell, I suppose this promo is only usefull to folks that plan on putting on say - over 100,000 miles over the life of a typical 5 year loan and plan to keep the vehicle a little longer. Then, that'd be an attractive offer. Doubling the years I think would only come into play if you plan on keeping the Santy as an eventual classic auto, and driving it very little.

I plan on keeping mine forever, so that would be worth while for me.
