Hyundai: warrenty questions

warrenty questions
When i got my car (an 02 accent) I also got the extended 10 year bumper to
bumper warrenty for around 600-$700.
As i was reading some of the eariler post and seeing things what the
warrenty does not cover, what exectly does it cover? For example to person
who had the problem with the thermostat not working on his tiberon: will my
10 year bumper to bumper cover me if that same problems happens to me while
i am with in the warrenty? Also i have been getting my old changed at a
local shop but i do not have all the receipts, but i think that they do
keep electronic records of their own, will this affect my warrenty, what
happenes to people who do their own maintence, will the warrrenty not
cover them? I know these are all questions that i should have thought of
eariler, but i was 20 when i bought my car and i was happy just to have a
car that was not made in the early 80's (i traded in a 82 tempo).
Luckily i bought my car at what i feel is a good dealership, I even went
25 miles out of my way becasue i did not like the hyundai dealership in my
town (on the one occision i have worked with them they charged me for
something that the dealership that i bought the car from did not charge me
for, it was only $10 so i paid it becasue i wanted the problem fixed)
Thanks, i just found this board and am loving it!!

I have 2001 Accent with 39k and bumper to bumper extended warranty upto
100k. I believe they cover everything bumper to bumper provided any
trouble is not caused by your abnornal action (accident/bad driving etc)
on your vehicle, it must be something internal trouble happened during
normal driving of your car. If you have followed scheduled maintenance
after you bought the car you should not have any problem. Try to get as
much info on maintenance as possible. But my experience tells me that
the dealer will refuse to pay anything, not even $10, even if you have
full proof maintenance record, they will always try to show you did
something wrong. So be prepared to fight.

Re: warrenty questions
What extended warranty did you buy. Is it the Hyundai Protection Plan
(HPP) or someone else's warranty. If it's HPP, look on your warranty card
and post the plan (4A, etc.) and I can look up the coverage. If it's
someone else's warranty, you'll have to look at your contract to see the
individual coverage.
As long as you have your maintenance receipts, you should be fine. DIYers
should have receipts from the purchase of the parts. Just remember, the
warranty covers defects, not things that failed because someone caused
them to fail.

Hi Hyundaitech, My warranty is "Plan B"
Is there any way you could look that one up?

Re: warrenty questions
I don't see a plan "b." There are six options I see. They are as
follows:
4A: 6/75 bumper/bumper
4B: 10/100 bumper/bumper
5A: 6/75 powertrain
5B:

Re: warrenty questions
OOPS! Hit the button too soon. I'll try again.
4A: 6/75 bumper/bumper
4B: 10/100 bumper/bumper
5A: 6/75 powertrain
5B: 6/75 bumper/bumper
6A: 10/100 powertrain
6B: 10/100 bumper/bumper
Applying to all plans: "Unless required in connection with a mechanical
breakdown, the following are not covered under this contract: A.
Maintenance services and parts as described in your vehicle's Owner's
Manual as supplied by the manufacturer. These include but are not limited
to: filters, lubricants, coolants, fluids, refrigerants and the service
operations necessary to replace them. B. Other normal maintenance
services and parts which include, but are not limited to, alignments,
adjustments, wheel balancing, tune ups, shock absorbers, friction clutch
disc and pressure plates,

Re: warrenty questions
Did it again. #@@!##!
I'll continue where I left off with the non-covered items:
"...spark plugs, spark plug wires, hoses, v belts, brake pads, brake
lining, brake shoes, brake drums, brake rotors, wiper blades, and
thermostat. C. Glass, lenses, sealed beams, light bulbs, exhaust
systems, batteries, trim moldings, bright metal, upholstery, carpet, door
panels, headliner, crash pad, paint, outside ornamentation, bumpers,
tires, wheels, wheel covers, seat belts, air bags, radio, antenna, and
emissions system.
I also believe each plan has a short list of things it doesn't cover.
This should be pretty close though.

Re: warrenty questions
Yes, I should have called it 4B, not just b. That's what it is. Thanks
for the info. Your help is appreciated.
