Hyundai provides peace of mind to its new car owners through the Hyundai Complimentary Maintenance (HCM) program. This program is designed to cover essential maintenance services for new Hyundai vehicles, including the 2025 Ioniq 6, for a specified period. For new 2025 Hyundai models purchased or leased on or after February 1, 2020, this program ensures your vehicle receives the necessary care at no cost for a certain duration.
Understanding Hyundai Complimentary Maintenance
The Hyundai Complimentary Maintenance program offers limited complimentary service on all new Model Year 2020 – 2025 Hyundai retail vehicles sold from February 1, 2020 onwards. Specifically for 2025 model year vehicles, which includes the innovative IONIQ 6, Hyundai provides a total of four basic maintenance services within the first 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
This basic maintenance encompasses Hyundai-approved oil and oil filter changes—crucially, this excludes electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles for obvious reasons related to combustion engines, but the IONIQ 6, being electric, still benefits from other aspects of the program. The coverage also includes multi-point inspections and tire rotations. These services, when performed at normal factory-scheduled maintenance intervals, are designed to keep your 2025 IONIQ 6 running smoothly during the initial years of ownership.
Key Terms and Conditions for 2025 Models
For owners of the 2025 IONIQ 6 and other 2025 Hyundai models, it’s important to note a few key conditions of the HCM program:
- Service Inclusions: The program covers Hyundai approved oil and oil filter changes (except for EVs and FCEVs), multi-point inspections, and tire rotations. For an EV like the IONIQ 6, the main applicable services are multi-point inspections and tire rotations.
- Service Limits: The program includes a maximum of four basic maintenance services within the 3-year/36,000-mile period. Any maintenance beyond these basic services or outside of the scheduled intervals is not covered.
- Service Location: HCM services must be performed at authorized Hyundai servicing dealers to be valid.
- Vehicle Eligibility: The program is for new retail vehicles only. Commercial, Certified Pre-Owned, used, and fleet vehicles are excluded. However, professional use, such as by realtors or outside sales representatives, is permitted.
- Transferability: Complimentary maintenance is non-transferable and applies only to the original owner or first retail customer, with an exception for transfers between spouses.
- Exclusions: The program does not cover normal wear and tear items such as engine and air filters, cabin filters, wiper blades, or brake pads. It also does not cover services listed as “inspect” in the Owner’s Manual, or any additional maintenance required due to severe driving conditions.
To fully understand the specifics of the Hyundai Complimentary Maintenance program as it applies to your 2025 IONIQ 6, it’s recommended to consult your Hyundai dealer and refer to the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual. This program is a valuable benefit, offering essential maintenance and contributing to a worry-free ownership experience for your new Hyundai.
