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.
- Verify VIN-specific completion of both hydrogen-related recalls.
- Confirm whether park-outside instructions remain in effect.
- Ask for records of electrical faults, fuel warnings, and engine concerns.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
