When it comes to purchasing a new vehicle, peace of mind is just as important as performance, style, and price.
That’s why Hyundai offers some of the most comprehensive warranties in the Canadian market, standing out among competitors for its commitment to reliability, coverage, and customer satisfaction.
At Seaway Hyundai in Cornwall, we’re proud to provide local drivers with Hyundai’s award-winning warranty packages that not only protect your investment but also reduce the risk of costly repairs.
From the robust 10-year Powertrain Limited Warranty to Hyundai Assurance and Complimentary Maintenance, Hyundai’s unwavering commitment to quality and customer care ensures you can drive confidently.
Whether you’re navigating the streets of Cornwall or embarking on a road trip through Stormont, Dundas, and Glengarry, Hyundai’s warranties provide the peace of mind that every driver deserves.
In this guide, we’ll break down Hyundai’s warranty programs and explain how they benefit local shoppers, including drivers of both new and Hyundai Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles.
Hyundai’s Powertrain Limited Warranty: Unmatched Coverage Where It Matters Most
A key highlight of Hyundai’s warranty coverage is the 10-year/160,000 km Powertrain Limited Warranty—a benchmark in the industry for protecting critical components.
This warranty is designed to cover essential systems, like the engine, transmission, and drivetrain, where repairs can be most expensive.
What’s Covered?
Engine Components: Coverage includes major parts such as the cylinder block, cylinder head, and internal components that ensure engine performance. This means you’re protected against issues like excessive engine revving, engine failure, or other potential issues that could affect your car’s lifespan.
Transmission & Drivetrain: Both automatic and manual transmissions, including the torque converter, advanced fuel injection systems, and other key components, are covered under this warranty.
Electric Vehicle Powertrains: For Hyundai’s electric vehicles, the warranty covers key battery-related issuesand electrical systems, ensuring the same level of confidence for EV drivers.
What This Means for You:
In the unpredictable Canadian market, with its extreme weather conditions and challenging roads, the 10-year Powertrain Warranty protects against mechanical failure that can lead to major repairs.
Whether you’re driving a Hyundai Santa Fe on rugged terrain or commuting in a Hyundai IONIQ 5, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your vehicle’s critical systems are protected well beyond the industry standard.
Hyundai Assurance: Confidence from Day One
Buying a new or pre-owned vehicle can be stressful, but Hyundai simplifies the process with Hyundai Assurance.
This comprehensive program is designed to give buyers complete confidence from the moment they drive off the lot.
What Does Hyundai Assurance Include?
5-Year/100,000 km Comprehensive Limited Warranty: This is a 5-year/60,000-mile new vehicle warranty that covers most components, from bumper to bumper, protecting against manufacturing defects and potential issues.
5-Year/Unlimited km 24-Hour Roadside Assistance: Whether you need towing for collision repairs or help with a flat tire, Hyundai’s roadside support ensures you’re never stranded.
1-Year/20,000 km Complimentary Maintenance: Routine care like oil changes and diagnostic purposes checks are covered, reducing your cost of maintenance compared to other brands.
What This Means for You:
With Hyundai Assurance, drivers in Cornwall and SDG enjoy more than just vehicle coverage—they benefit from Hyundai’s commitment to customer satisfaction.
From roadside assistance to complimentary maintenance, Hyundai ensures that every customer concern is addressed, allowing you to focus on the joy of driving, not the worry of unexpected expenses.
Complimentary Maintenance: Keeping Your Hyundai Running Smoothly
One of Hyundai’s most valuable offerings is Complimentary Maintenance, which covers routine services for your first year/20,000 km. This program helps keep your vehicle in top condition without any added costs.
What’s Included?
Oil and Filter Changes: | Regular oil changes are crucial to maintaining optimal engine performance and extending your vehicle’s lifespan |
Tire Rotations and Inspections: | Â Ensuring even tire wear and checking for alignment issues keeps your driving smooth and safe. |
Multi-Point Inspections: | Our expert technicians will check everything from electrical systems to autonomous systems for diagnostic purposes, catching any potential issues before they become serious. |
What This Means for You:
Whether you drive a Hyundai Santa Fe with its robust towing capacity or a fuel-efficient Hyundai Venue, complimentary maintenance ensures your car stays in peak condition from day one.
Plus, having your car serviced at Seaway Hyundai’s warranty department means you’re getting the best care with genuine Hyundai parts.
Extended Warranties: Extra Protection for Long-Term Peace of Mind
While Hyundai’s standard warranties are some of the best in the business, extended warranties provide even more protection for those who plan to keep their cars long-term or want extra coverage for pre-owned vehicles.
What Do Extended Warranties Cover?
Beyond Basic Coverage: |  Extended warranties cover many components beyond the original 5-year/60,000-mile limited warranty, offering protection against mechanical failure and major repairs. |
Flexible Terms: | Â Customize your coverage based on leasing terms, monthly payments, and driving habits, ensuring you get exactly what you need. |
Affordable Cost: | Compared to potential repair expenses, extended warranties offer an affordable cost for added peace of mind. |
What This Means for You:
Drivers in Cornwall who keep their cars for longer than average or purchase Hyundai Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles can benefit from extended coverage, protecting their vehicles well beyond standard warranties.
This is especially valuable for cars equipped with cutting-edge technologies and advanced technologies that may require specialized repairs.
Why Hyundai’s Warranty Stands Out in the Automotive Industry

Hyundai’s warranty programs set the benchmarks for reliability in the automotive industry. From advanced fuel injection systems to autonomous systems, Hyundai’s confidence in its engineering is reflected in its warranty offerings.
