whocares Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 http://www.hyundaiusa.com/financing/HyundaiAssurance/HyundaiAssurance.aspxI guess this deserves serious thought...if your looking for a car.In an attempt to combat economic uncertainty among automobile buyers, Hyundai and local affiliate AutoFair Hyundai are offering a first-of-its-kind one-year guarantee return program.Starting today, the dealer begins allowing a new-car buyer to return the vehicle in the event of "life-altering circumstances" such as layoffs, job transfers and accidental deaths up to a year after the purchase.Says AutoFair Hyundai Chief Operating Officer Andy Crews, "It's no secret that with economic uncertainty, customers have been hesitant on car purchases. With the new Hyundai guarantee, our customers no longer have to worry about car payments when they encounter unexpected life changes, and our cars are a natural choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dre Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 That's really unique, and it might not be such a bad idea - but it could backfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nascar Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I think there's more to this than they're admitting. They might take the car back, but they don't say they're guaranteeing the loan. Read the fine print before falling for this gimmick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jq26 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I see it as just another ploy to prop up unsustainably high automobile sales #s. Its more of the same. They'l bend over backward to get you in a car that is most likely unneeded and puts another monthly weight around your neck. But at least they reported back to their corporate headquarters that another unit is off the lot. And if you think your job or health is in question, the last thing you need is a car. Sock that money awaY!!! You'll need to eat and pay the utility bill.Drive a beater or take public trans unless you need a shiny car for a professional job (realtor, lawyer, sales, etc.). And then when you have 50% down or more, buy a car if you really want one. Otherwise, you're killing yourself for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
