Warranty Extension<\/u><\/p>

Warranty Extension for Settlement Class Members whose Class Vehicles have a New Vehicle Limited Warranty that remains in effect as of the date of the Court’s Preliminary Approval Order, HMA shall extend the warranty for Class Vehicles’ ABS modules that have been repaired or replaced pursuant to a NHTSA Recall to cover future Qualifying Repairs for twelve (12) years from the date of original retail delivery or date of first use, whichever is later.<\/p>

For Settlement Class Members whose Class Vehicles have an expired New Vehicle Limited Warranty as of the date of the Court’s Preliminary Approval Order, HMA will provide a warranty for Class Vehicles’ ABS modules that have been repaired or replaced pursuant to a NHTSA Recall to cover future Qualifying Repairs for five (5) years from the date of the Final Approval Order and Judgment. If HMA is unable to repair or replace a Class Vehicle’s ABS module pursuant to a NHTSA Recall due to the unavailability of necessary components, HMA will provide a warranty for the Class Vehicle’s ABS module to cover future Qualifying Repairs for five (5) years from the date the NHTSA Recall repair or replacement is complete; provided, however, that the Settlement Class Member must attest in writing that they attempted to get an appointment for the recall repair at an authorized Hyundai dealer but could not due to parts unavailability. <\/p>

The extended warranties described above cover all costs related to a Qualifying Repair. Settlement Class Members are suggested to retain all vehicle maintenance records, and may be required to provide records for vehicle maintenance performed to receive warranty repairs. The warranty extension may be denied for “Exceptional Neglect” of the vehicle (defined in FAQ 11). <\/p>

You do NOT need to submit a Claim Form to receive this warranty extension for the ABS modules under this Settlement. <\/p>

Free One-Time Inspection<\/u><\/p>

If a Settlement Class Member brings their Class Vehicle into an authorized Hyundai dealership for another unrelated service, the Settlement Class Member may request a free, one-time inspection of the Class Vehicle’s ABS module, to the extent the Class Vehicle’s ABS module was previously repaired or replaced pursuant to a NHTSA Recall, to ensure the repaired or replaced ABS Module is not affected by the Qualifying Defect. <\/p>

You do NOT need to submit a Claim Form to receive this Free One-Time Inspection under this Settlement. <\/p>

Reimbursement for Rental Car, Towing, or Other Similar Out-of-Pocket Expenses<\/u><\/p>

Money you spent on rental cars, towing services, and similar out-of-pocket expenses reasonably related to obtaining a Qualifying Repair can be reimbursed, provided that your claim is submitted within 70 days of the expense incurred and you include the required documentation, which is outlined in FAQ 12 and on the Claim Form. Lost wages, airline fees, hotel fees or other consequential damages cannot be recovered. <\/p>

Compensation for Vehicle Total Loss Due to Engine Compartment Fire<\/u><\/p>

If following a repair or replacement of your Class Vehicle’s ABS module pursuant to a NHTSA Recall you suffered a Total Loss of your Class Vehicle due to a fire caused by the Qualifying Defect, you may be entitled to receive compensation for the value of the vehicle, and an additional $140 goodwill payment. <\/p>

For purposes of this Settlement, “Total Loss” means any Class Vehicle incident that would have led to a Qualifying Repair, but either the cost of the repair was too great or other circumstances led the Class Member or owner to dispose of the Class Vehicle at a loss. This includes events in which there was insurance coverage, but where the Class Member was still not made whole by such insurance payments. <\/p>

If you own your Class Vehicle and it is a Total Loss, the amount of compensation will be based on the maximum Black Book value of the vehicle at the time of loss, minus any proceeds or actual value received, subject to verification. <\/p>

If you lease your Class Vehicle and it is a Total Loss, the amount of compensation will be based on the greater of: (1) maximum Black Book value of the Class Vehicle at the time of loss, or (2) the outstanding lease balance, if any, due to the lessor following the disposal of the Class Vehicle in accordance with the terms of the lease, minus any proceeds or actual value received and minus any amounts owed under the lease that are attributable to negative equity that was rolled into the lease from a prior vehicle purchase, subject to verification. <\/p>

To be considered for compensation, submit a claim and include the required documentation - which is outlined in FAQ 12 and on the Claim Form. <\/p>

The vehicle’s maintenance history or lack thereof before the repair diagnosis will not be a basis for denying or limiting compensation under this benefit section (excepting Exceptional Neglect – defined in FAQ 11). <\/p>
