Warranty Extension Description:

Certain 2017-2018MY Elantra (ADa), Sonata (LFa), and Santa Fe Sport (AN) vehicles manufactured by Hyundai Motor
Manufacturing Alabama (“HMMA”) may exhibit peeling or bubbling of the white paint in various areas of the vehicle, most
commonly on or around the hood, fender, and roof. The paint warranty coverage for these vehicles with white exterior paint
has been extended to the following:
• 2017MY vehicles – 6 years with unlimited miles from the date of original retail delivery or date of first use,
whichever occurred first, and is valid for original and subsequent owners
• 2018MY vehicles – 5 years with unlimited miles from the date of original retail delivery or date of first use,
whichever occurred first, and is valid for original and subsequent owners

Applicable Vehicles:

• Certain 2017-2018MY Elantra (ADa) vehicles with Quartz White Pearl exterior paint (W8 or WW8) manufactured by
HMMA (VIN starts with 5NP)
• Certain 2017-2018MY Sonata (LFa) vehicles with Quartz White Pearl exterior paint (W8 or WW8) manufactured by HMMA
(VIN starts with 5NP)
• Certain 2017-18MY Santa Fe Sport (AN) vehicles with Frost White Pearl exterior paint (SWP) manufactured by HMMA
(VIN starts with 5NM)
To see if the vehicle is eligible, go to Hyundaidealer.com > WEBDCS > Vehicle Information Screen. Input the VIN
number and look under the heading ‘Extended Factory Warranty’ to see if TXXW is listed for the vehicle.

The Repair:

Repair and refinish the panels that may be affected by the white paint condition as per the Shop Manual, standard shop repair
practices (paint matching & blending) and industry standards. Repair times may vary depending on the number of panels and
severity.

Recommended Alternative Transportation: The customer should be provided with a Service Rental Car (SRC)
during the visit.

Sample Customer Talk Tracks

1. “We have inspected your vehicle’s paint and determined that repairs needed to correct the paint flaw will be covered
under warranty. Hyundai will provide you with a Service Rental Vehicle while your vehicle is the body shop having the
paint concern corrected.”
2. “We inspected your vehicles paint and determined that the damage was caused by an outside influence and not due
to a paint flaw, therefore the repair would not be covered under warranty. We would be happy have to provide you with
a quote to have the repairs performed at your expense.”
