Customer FAQs
Q1: What is the issue?
A1: Criminals are targeting certain model year Hyundai vehicles based on the understanding that some
models did not come standard with an engine immobilizer. There has been a coordinated campaign on social
media to highlight ways for criminals to circumvent the existing security features on Hyundai vehicles
without an immobilizer. There is no malfunction or defect with security features on these vehicles, and they
all meet or exceed Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Q2: What is an Engine Immobilizer?
A2: An engine immobilizer is an electronic security device fitted to a motor vehicle that prevents the engine
from being started unless the correct key (transponder or smart key) is present. Even in Hyundai vehicles
without an immobilizer, other protections have been built in that must be circumvented to allow the vehicle
Page 10 of 16
to be started without a key.
Q3: I have a push-button start vehicle or Immobilizer lamp in the instrument cluster. Is my vehicle
affected?
A3: No. All Hyundai vehicles with a push button start or immobilizer lamp in the instrument cluster are
equipped with an immobilizer.
Q4: Will there be a Recall or Stop Sale?
A4: These vehicles meet or exceed all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and these thefts are not
related to a malfunction or defect with the security features.
Q5: I drive a Genesis
vehicle, which I found out is made by Hyundai’s parent company. Is my vehicle
affected?
A5: No. Vehicles distributed through Genesis
Motor America come standard with an immobilizer.
Q6: My Hyundai has a key ignition, but I’ve been told I have an immobilizer already equipped. Is that
accurate?
A6: It depends. Some vehicles with turn-key ignitions did come equipped with an immobilizer. Please contact
your dealer or Hyundai Customer Care Center at 888-498-0390.
Q7: What will Hyundai do for vehicles eligible for a software upgrade?
A7: Your Hyundai dealer will perform a system upgrade for the IBU/BCM to improve the Hyundai burglar
alarm system operation and ignition start logic. Hyundai will also install anti-theft deterrent labels for the
front driver and front passenger windows of your vehicle. This procedure will be performed at NO CHARGE
to you. Once the upgrade procedure has been completed, be sure to lock your vehicle with the key fob to
activate the enhanced anti-theft system. It is also recommended that you unlock your vehicle with the key
fob to access the vehicle to ensure that it will start.
Q8: I have an aftermarket security system on my vehicle. Will the software upgrade affect my aftermarket
anti-theft system/software?
A8. There is a possibility that the BCM software update may interfere with the operation of the aftermarket
security system. Any affect on aftermarket security system will be customer's responsibility.
Q9: Will Hyundai offer free steering wheel locks to customers?
A9: Yes. Hyundai is offering anti-theft steering wheel locks to customers with eligible vehicles. There also is a
process by which customers whose vehicles do not have an immobilizer may be eligible for reimbursement
for purchase of a steering wheel lock. Please direct these customers to www.hyundaiusa.com/anti-theft to
enter their VIN and determine applicability, or they can contact the Hyundai Customer Care Center at 888498-0390.
Q10: I am with Law Enforcement. Is there a cost or any obligation to receive steering wheel locks?
A10: There is no cost or obligation. Hyundai is providing an allotment of steering wheel locks to law
enforcement in affected areas, subject to availability.
Q11: I understand there is a Class Action lawsuit related to the current thefts of Hyundai vehicles. Can you
comment?
A11: Hyundai is committed to the quality and integrity of our products and plans to continue supporting the
communities affected by this theft issue. All our vehicles meet the anti-theft requirements of Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 114. We appreciate and share the interest in addressing the rise in thefts of these
vehicles. Hyundai recently announced the launch of a free software upgrade and/or antitheft steering wheel
locks, to help prevent the theft mode popularized on social media. For further information, please contact
Page 11 of 16
the call center at (888) 498-0390 or visit HyundaiAntiTheft.com.
Q12: I am a reporter. Can I speak with someone at Hyundai?
A12: For all media inquiries, please contact Ira Gabriel, Sr. Group Manager, Corporate and Marketing Public
Relations ([email protected]).
Q13: I am calling from a Police Department. I understand you have a program to give-away steering wheel
locks. Is there someone at Hyundai I can speak with?
A13: For all law enforcement inquiries, please contact Ira Gabriel, Sr. Group Manager, Corporate and
Marketing Public Relations ([email protected]).
Q14: How do I obtain insurance through AAA?
A14: Hyundai and AAA insurers have increased insurance options in most states for owners and lessees of
eligible affected vehicles. Customers can visit AAA.com/insurance to receive a quote.
Q15: Are AAA insurers offering coverage for affected Hyundai vehicles in my state?
A15: The program will be available in all states, with the exception of those states where AAA does not offer
insurance.
Alaska
Massachusetts
Washington (state)
The full list of states with AAA insurers offering coverage can be found here: Hyundai and AAA Insurers
Collaborate to Offer Insurance Options for Customers Affected by Method of Theft Popularized on TikTok Hyundai Newsroom. AAA insurers are independently operated.
Q16: How does the agreement solve for increased insurance premiums some Hyundai
customers are
experiencing?
A16: We encourage customers who saw a major increase in premiums from other insurance companies to
contact AAA for a quote.
Q17: What if a Hyundai customer was previously dropped by AAA? Will their auto policy now be
reinstated?
A17: AAA will continue to write policies for eligible Hyundai vehicles. Customers should contact AAA to
address their specific situation and vehicle.
Q18: Will Campaign P32 for the steering wheel lock be closed with the launch of Campaign 9A5 for the
protector?
A18: No, both will stay open. One or both are to be performed, assuming campaign(s) are open for the
vehicle.
Q19: I have an aftermarket alarm/anti-theft system equipped on my vehicle. What are my options?
Only if the customer’s vehicle is equipped with an aftermarket alarm/anti-theft system may they opt-out of
receiving the software upgrade. The customer will need to sign an opt-out form provided by the dealer. This
will close out the 993 campaign on the vehicle.
