Due to errors in the procedural operations at Hyundai's testing operations in Korea, incorrect fuel economy ratings were released for 900,00 Hyundai vehicles sold between 2010 and 2012, through October 31, 2012. This incorrect rating has affected all Hyundai models manufactured during this period excluding the Sonata, Genesis Coupe, and Equus. According to Hyundai, these MPG ratings were overstated by an average of 3%. To rectify this error, Hyundai has apologized for these miscalculations, and is offering a fuel cost reimbursement program for all current and previous owners of Hyundai vehicles during the affected time period.
As part of Hyundai's fuel reimbursement program, all current and previous owners of qualifying vehicles are entitled to be reimbursed money for all additional fuel costs accrued while using the vehicle. This reimbursement will be distributed through a personalized debit card for each owner that can be reloaded for as long as the customer owns the car. As a show of good will, Hyundai will also add 15% to the amount to be dispersed to each customer. The amount of money to be reimbursed is based on the difference between the erroneous fuel economy rating and the true rating, with the fuel price in the local area of ownership and actual miles driven factored in to determine the true value of the reimbursement.
