When to Schedule Hyundai Service
Hyundais are built for longevity, but like any vehicle, they have patterns and signals that it’s time for maintenance services. Watch for these common signs:
Our team handles these issues with factory-grade tools and genuine-quality parts, always focused on catching problems early and keeping repairs cost-effective.
Questions Hyundai Owners Ask Most
Every brand has its quirks, and Hyundai is no exception. Here are the questions we hear most often in our shop.
Hyundai typically recommends service every 7,500 miles or 12 months. But at Rob’e Mans, we advise no more than 5,000 miles between oil changes to protect your engine against sludge and wear.
The Hyundai service schedule includes:
- Every 5,000 miles: Oil change, tire rotation, fluid checks, brake inspection, suspension and steering inspection
- Every 15,000 miles: Replace cabin air filter, inspect steering and cooling components
- Every 30,000 miles: Transmission service, engine air filter, fuel system cleaning
- Every 60,000 miles: Spark plug replacement, coolant flush, drive belt inspection
- Every 100,000 miles: Timing chain/tensioner checks, hybrid battery cooling fan service
We tailor service to your model and driving conditions so nothing gets overlooked.
Some Sonata and Elantra models (especially 2011–2016) experienced hesitation, rough shifting, or delayed gear engagement. Causes often include:
- Low or degraded transmission fluid
- Faulty shift solenoids or sensors
- Issues with the torque converter
- Software updates needed for shift quality
We use Hyundai-approved diagnostics to pinpoint the exact cause and recommend repairs that restore smooth shifting without jumping straight to a costly replacement.
Hyundai hybrid batteries typically last 8–10 years, while EV batteries in the Kona and Ioniq series are designed for even longer lifespans. Signs of battery decline include:
- Reduced driving range
- Slower charging times
- Warning lights or error messages on the dashboard
- Noticeable drops in fuel efficiency (hybrids)
Most Hyundai EVs come with an 8-year/100,000-mile battery warranty. We can run a full hybrid/EV battery health check to help you plan repairs or replacements before performance suffers.
Weak or warm AC airflow is a common concern in Tucson, Santa Fe, and Palisade models. Common causes include:
- Refrigerant leaks
- Failing or worn-out compressor
- Clogged cabin air filter
- Electrical issues with AC controls
- Condenser or evaporator damage
Our team performs pressure checks, leak detection, and electrical testing to identify the root cause and restore your cooling system.
Hyundais are generally considered affordable to maintain compared to many other brands. Here’s why:
- Parts availability: Hyundai shares many components across models, making OEM parts easy to source.
- Lower labor costs: Simpler designs mean fewer hours of labor for common repairs.
- Known reliability: With proper care, engines and transmissions often exceed 150,000–200,000 miles.
At Rob’e Mans, you’ll also get the benefit of:
- A 2-year/24,000-mile warranty on all repairs
- Transparent estimates with no upselling
- Preventive care recommendations to avoid major repairs down the road
