Anyone catch the commercials for this yet? If you buy a new Hyundai and you lose your income within 1 year, you can return it free of charge. Pretty impressive and the only one taking a step beyond the 0% financing and incentives other dealers are doing. ---

Fuck me. I thought this was their new promotion. The commercial didn’t say Hyundai Assurance so I didn’t even connect the two. ---

How about: if you can’t afford it or you think that your job may be in jeopardy, then don’t buy a new car. People buying shit they can’t afford is half the reason were in this. ---

I still think the most entertaining marketing ploy was the $2.99 gas when you bought a new car. :lol: Sounded good when you were paying $4.50 a gallon but if you looked at it, you gave up any incentives or cash back on the car itself on top of the fact that gas is cheaper now. ---

^ I think it’s comical too. I don’t get what the people that were signing up were thinking, if gas price is an issue get a fuel efficient car/cheap car. ---

Doesn’t qualify for assurance if: Involuntary unemployment, physical disability, loss of driver’s license due to medical impairment, international employment transfer, self-employed personal bankruptcy, or accidental death are the cause to your job loss. Secondly, you must have a 740+ credit score, be less than $7500 upside down on the current vehicle. (Here’s a hint, everyone that owns a Hyundai is atleast $5,000 upside down the minute they drive off the lot.) ---

So what if I just lower my pay after I buy the car? The commercial says “Income loss”. ---

As [Autoblog.com](http://Autoblog.com) points out, the plan only covers $7500 of depreciation. So far consumers aren’t buying it come first impressions. Take a look at this commenter on Autoblog’s opinions on the campaign: "…They’re using trade in value. 2009 Sonata gls msrp $23,145 tax title lic doc $2,300 down payment $2,000 (National average) total $23,445 Trade in value on an 08 $11,525 (Kelley blue book) Deficit $11,920 Hyundai good will = $7,500 Still on the hook for $4,420 \<333333 [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-hyundai-promotion/61349.md?page=2)
