Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm battery cell recall status and park-outside instructions by VIN.
- Request proof of the driveshaft recall repair.
- Verify both charging unit recalls and ask about charging or propulsion faults.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
