Roadside Assistance Programme - UK and Channel Islands
The Roadside Assistance Programme provides three years of free, 24-hour
roadside assistance should your car break down anywhere in the UK or Channel
Islands - even at your home address. Cover is also provided for a total
of 31 days' travel, in every year, in mainland Europe.
The benefits are subject to the following terms and conditions:
- The vehicle must be covered under the new vehicle warranty, and have
been maintained in accordance with the routine maintenance service schedule,
using genuine Hyundai parts.
- Arrangements for any assistance provision must be made through the
Roadside Assistance provider. No benefits or reimbursement will be available
if arrangements for assistance provision are made any other way.
- Where the vehicle breakdown is away from home and the recovery operator
deems recovery of a vehicle necessary, only one journey from the point
of breakdown to the nearest Hyundai Dealer, or onward destination, will
be provided. Further recovery of any kind will not be available.
- Where the vehicle breakdown is at home and the recovery operator deems
recovery of a vehicle necessary, only one journey from the point of
breakdown to the nearest Hyundai Dealer will be provided.
- "Breakdown" is defined as electrical or mechanical failure
causing the vehicle to be immobilised. The failure of ancillary components
which do not result in actual immobilisation of the vehicle are excluded.
- "Accident" is defined as collision between the vehicle
and another object, whilst on a categorised public road rendering the
vehicle immobile. If the vehicle becomes immobilised due to accident
within the United Kingdom or the Channel Isles, the Roadside Assistance
provider will arrange for, but not pay for, recovery of the vehicle
to a place of storage.
- Roadside Assistance Programme is only available in the case of caravans
and trailers where the need for assistance or recovery results from
a breakdown of the towing vehicle. Caravans and trailers are defined
as a normal towed vehicle commercially constructed for towing by a passenger
car with a maximum gross weight of not more than the maximum allowable
towing weight specified for a particular vehicle by Hyundai. Caravans
or trailers having unusual dimensions, insecure loads, or which are
not roadworthy will be recovered only at the discretion of the recovery
operator.
- Recovery is only available where the vehicle is located on a normal
metalled road. Recovery from locations requiring specialised equipment
or recovery from private land where permission for access to the vehicle
cannot be obtained is not covered under the terms of the new vehicle
warranty.
- Assistance will not be available where, in the opinion of Hyundai,
excessive call is made upon the service contrary to the spirit of the
benefits offered, or where a lack of maintenance results in the breakdown
of the vehicle.
- Assistance will not be available where the vehicle is unattended,
in an unroadworthy condition, or the lack of a serviceable spare wheel
prevents assistance being effected.
- In the event of the nature of the breakdown preventing the vehicle
from being repaired by the Roadside Assistance service, recovery of
the vehicle, (including the driver, up to five passengers, and any attached
trailer or caravan) will be made to the nearest authorised Hyundai dealer,
or onward destination at the discretion of the recovery operator.
- Parts or consumables which are not covered under the terms of the
three year Roadside Assistance Programme e.g. fuel, spare keys, etc.,
but which are required to effect repairs will be charged to the vehicle
user.
The Roadside Assistance Programme package is only offered on passenger vehicles for non-commercial use and is not available on vehicles used for hire or reward or commercial purposes.
Onward Travel
