Equipment Note
Hyundai-Specific Diagnostics & Equipment
We diagnose Hyundai vehicles using GDS (Global Diagnostic System), the same software Hyundai dealerships use, not a generic OBD-II reader. That means we can read manufacturer-specific fault codes, access factory service data, and evaluate knock-sensor and engine-health data accurately, without dealership wait times or dealership pricing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hyundai Repair Questions, Answered
We use OEM Hyundai parts or verified equivalent-quality aftermarket parts depending on the repair and your preference. We'll always tell you which option we're recommending and why before any work begins.
No. Under federal law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), routine maintenance and repairs performed at an independent shop like ours don't void your Hyundai's factory or powertrain warranty, as long as the work meets manufacturer specifications, which is exactly how we service every Hyundai that comes through our doors.
On certain Theta II-engine model years, we watch for engine wear and knock sensor concerns. If your Hyundai is affected by one of the manufacturer's engine-related recall or extended-warranty campaigns, we can help you understand whether it applies to your specific VIN.
No, you're free to have routine maintenance and repairs done at an independent shop like ours without affecting your Hyundai's powertrain warranty coverage, as long as the work is done to manufacturer specifications and you keep your service records.
