The compensation is for the EPA adjusted combined MPG. The 2013 Sport compensation is 2 mpg for the FWD and 1 mpg for the AWD.

The 2012 Sonata compensation is 1 mpg.

More info here: Newsroom - Hyundai Motor America

The variance in gas prices around the country also contributes to different amounts of compensation.

Did not know that and thanks for clarifying that John.

I think the cutoff date is Nov 1, 2012

Did it come with a pin number?

Is it a pain to use?

Anything we should know?

I know that we have until Nov. 2nd. of this year to apply, and that we can do it on line, but I`m getting my first oil change soon and may do it then. My service guy said he would handle everything for me.
Thanks...Cheers..

Bump.....

Now that some time has passed since the above question was asked, I figured it wouldn`t hurt to ask it again.

I just brought mine in for service, and applied for the card at the same time. Seems that at 3,214 miles, I
can expect $45.38 to be on it when I get the card in a few weeks.

Qualifing owners can bring their vehicles in to a dealer as often as they want, to have their mileage recorded, for as long as they own the vehicle. Each visit will add more $ to the card, based on miles driven since the last visit, plus an additional 15% of those $.

So, to those who have the card, how has it worked out? Any problems?

Other than Hyundai's reimbursement offer being woefully inadequate? Nope, I'm not doing the card thing, don't want to hurt my chances in the lawsuit of collecting a more fair settlement.

[corvairbob]

a more fair settlement may not even happen. and as for the amount we got 6.50 on a debit cart for 3500 miles. this car sucks and we are now looking at other cars. it will not even beat my 06 cobalt in mileage summer or winter. cobalt gets 30 mpg for 50/50 and 28mpg for 75/25 h/c . hsh gets 32mpg 100% h/c and 25mpg 50/50 h/c . that sucks for a $25k car that is suppose to be so advanced.

got mine with 9500 miles on the ODO. worked out to roughly 85.00 or so. I did the math and basically I'm getting .003/cents per mile.

so, I'll get the card reloaded each time I go in for service. *shrug*

if it's any consolation, my 2008 Subaru Legacy 2.5i gets 22.00 mpg constant. so...so far, my SF is doing just fine.

Just got my mileage verified yesterday at around 4300 miles, I wonder what that will work out to? The young man said it would take up to 30 days for the initial reimbursement and if it was under $10 they cut a check rather than issue a debit card. I will wait for further payments and add them to a debit card and maybe get a free oil change once a year or something like that. I had them start the process so i would know for sure that I was in their system, seeing as how I had to mail a claim form in because my dealer couldn't find my car in the system (I bought mine on 9-30-12).

I`m guessing that you can expect approximately $50 based on your 4,300 miles. More to come as you put on miles.

I have the same vehicle as you and I got $45 and change on 3,214 miles. Of course, it`s also figured on the price of gas in your area...Currently in Delaware it`s $3.69 on average.

BTW...I registered last Friday, and got an email today saying the card has been mailed..
