This CARFAX Vehicle History Report is based only on information supplied to CARFAX and available as of 2/8/23 at 6:17:22 PM (CST). Other information about this vehicle, including problems, may not have been reported to CARFAX. Use this report as one important tool, along with a vehicle inspection and test drive, to make a better decision about your next used car.
Loss Due To Fire Title The vehicle sustained major damage due to fire. In most states, fire damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value.
Accident / Damage Indicator Various events could indicate an accident or damage in a vehicle's history, such as: salvage auction, fire damage, police-reported accident, crash test vehicle, damage disclosure, collision repair facility and automotive recycler records. See the glossary for more information.
Airbag Deployment Occurs when the driver, passenger or side airbag has been used or deployed during a crash or other incident. If an airbag has been deployed, it must be replaced by a qualified technician. Have this car inspected by a mechanic prior to purchase.
Junk Title A Junk Title is issued on a vehicle damaged to the extent that the cost of repairing the vehicle exceeds approximately 75% of its pre-damage value. This damage threshold may vary by state. The majority of states use this title to indicate that a vehicle is not road worthy and cannot be titled again. Some states treat Junk titles the same as Salvage.
Rebuilt/Reconstructed Title A Rebuilt/Reconstructed vehicle is a salvage vehicle that has been repaired and restored to operation. These vehicles are often severely damaged before they are rebuilt and refurbished parts are typically used during reconstruction. In most states, an inspection of the vehicle is required before the vehicle is allowed to return to the road.
Manufacturer Buyback or Lemon Title A DMV or a state agency marks an official document or issues a Manufacturer Buyback/Lemon title when a vehicle has been repurchased by the manufacturer. Not all states issue manufacturer buyback titles and the specific requirements for a lemon law vehicle varies by state.
Exceeds Mechanical Limits Title A vehicle with a 5-digit odometer cannot accurately track mileage after 99,999 miles because the odometer rolls over. This title is the result of a seller certifying under the Federal Odometer Act, that the odometer reading EXCEEDS MECHANICAL LIMITS of the odometer.
Salvage Title A Salvage Title is issued on a vehicle damaged to the extent that the cost of repairing the vehicle exceeds approximately 75% of its pre-damage value. This damage threshold may vary by state. Some states treat Junk titles the same as Salvage but the majority use this title to indicate that a vehicle is not road worthy and cannot be titled again in that state. The following eleven States also use Salvage titles to identify stolen vehicles - AZ, FL, GA, IL, MD, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OK and OR.

Manufacturer Buyback or Lemon Title A DMV or a state agency marks an official document or issues a Manufacturer Buyback/Lemon title when a vehicle has been repurchased by the manufacturer. Not all states issue manufacturer buyback titles and the specific requirements for a lemon law vehicle varies by state.
Not Actual Mileage Title When the seller certifies, under the Federal Odometer Act, that the odometer reading does not reflect the vehicle's actual mileage. This may occur because the odometer was tampered with, broken, or replaced.
Dismantled Title The vehicle sustained major damage to one or more major component parts and the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value. When a Dismantled title is issued, the vehicle may be used only for parts or scrap metal. It cannot be re-titled or returned to the road.
Manufacturer Recall Automobile manufacturers issue recall notices to inform owners of car defects that have come to the manufacturer's attention. Recalls also suggest improvements that can be made to improve the safety of a particular vehicle. Most manufacturer recalls can be repaired at no cost to you.
Rebuilt/Reconstructed Title A Rebuilt/Reconstructed vehicle is a salvage vehicle that has been repaired and restored to operation. These vehicles are often severely damaged before they are rebuilt and refurbished parts are typically used during reconstruction. In most states, an inspection of the vehicle is required before the vehicle is allowed to return to the road.
Odometer Check CARFAX analyzes mileage data to help identify potential:
Rollbacks - odometer tampering to conceal a car's true mileage (i.e. Fraud or illegal activity)
Rollovers - after reaching the maximum reading, the odometer restarts from zero (i.e. Mechanical or equipment limitation)
Inconsistencies - conflicting mileage data means CARFAX cannot determine if it's a potential rollback (i.e. Potential human error)
Airbag Deployment Occurs when the driver, passenger or side airbag has been used or deployed during a crash or other incident. If an airbag has been deployed, it must be replaced by a qualified technician. Have this car inspected by a mechanic prior to purchase.
Not Actual Mileage Title When the seller certifies, under the Federal Odometer Act, that the odometer reading does not reflect the vehicle's actual mileage. This may occur because the odometer was tampered with, broken, or replaced.
Hail Damage Title The vehicle sustained major damage due to hail. In most states, hail damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value.
Hail Damage Title The vehicle sustained major damage due to hail. In most states, hail damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value.
Flood Damage Title States issue flood titles when a vehicle has been in a flood or has received extensive water damage.
Basic Warranty Most manufacturers offer a basic warranty for new vehicles. These warranties vary by manufacturer and typically last for a certain amount of time and/or a set number of miles.
Rebuilt/Reconstructed Title A Rebuilt/Reconstructed vehicle is a salvage vehicle that has been repaired and restored to operation. These vehicles are often severely damaged before they are rebuilt and refurbished parts are typically used during reconstruction. In most states, an inspection of the vehicle is required before the vehicle is allowed to return to the road.
Structural Damage All levels of accidents, from minor to severe, can cause structural damage to a vehicle (i.e., damage to the frame or unibody).
Flood Damage Title States issue flood titles when a vehicle has been in a flood or has received extensive water damage.
Total Loss An insurance or fleet company declares a vehicle a total loss when a claim exceeds approximately 75% of its pre-damage value or if the vehicle is stolen and not recovered. This damage threshold varies by company. These companies typically take possession and obtain the title. Not all total loss vehicles result in a DMV-reported branded title, like a Salvage or Junk title. See the glossary for more information.

Description:
HYUNDAI IS INITIATING A NEW RECALL CAMPAIGN 203, A SAFETY RECALL TO ADDRESS A CONDITION INVOLVING ENGINE FAILURES RESULTING IN A VEHICLE STALL & OR FIRE IN CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2019-2020 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, 2019-2021 HYUNDAI KONA, AND 2019-2021 HYUNDAI VELOSTER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 2.0- LITER "NU" MPI ENGINES AND PRODUCED FOR SALE IN THE U.S. AND CANADA. HYUNDAI IS INITIATING THIS ACTION TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF ITS VEHICLES.
THE ENGINES IN THE SUBJECT VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED USING PISTON OIL RINGS THAT WERE PRODUCED WITH INCONSISTENT NITRIDE HEAT TREATING BY THE PISTON OIL RING SUPPLIER RESULTING IN EXCESSIVE OIL RING HARDNESS. EXCESSIVE HARNESES CAN CAUSE CHIPPING OF THE PISTON OIL RING'S OUTER PERIPHERY, WHICH COULD LEAD TO ABNORMAL SCURFFING OF THE ENGINE'S CYLINDER BORE. A DAMAGED CYLINDER BORE COULD CREATE ACCELERATED OIL CONSUMPTION, WHICH MAY THEN CAUSE ABNORMAL KNOCKING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE AND/OR ILLUMINATION OF THE OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT. CONTINUAL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION COULD RESULT IN A SEIZED CONNECTING ROD BEARING, WHICH COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE BLOCK AND EVENTUALLY STALL THE VEHICLE. IN LIMITED INSTANCES, A CONNECTING ROD COULD PUNCTURE THE ENGINE BLOCK AND CAUSE ENGINE OIL TO LEAK, WHICH, IN THE PRESENCE OF HOT SURFACES, COULD INCREASE THERISK OF A FIRE. GIVEN THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM, IT IS SAFE FOR CUSTOMERS TO CONTINUE PARKING INDOORS. THERE IS NO RISK FOR A FIRE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS OFF. OWNERS SHOULD PRIORITZE GETTING THE RECALL COMPLETED ONCE THEY ARE NOTIFIED.
Remedy:
HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS OF AFFECTED VEHICLE TO RETURN THEIR VEHICLES TO THEIR DEALERS FOR AN ENGINE INSPECTION TEST TO DETERMINE THE PRESENCE OF DAMAGE ON THE CYLINDER BORE AND PISTON SKIRT. IF ABNORMALITIES RELATING TO DAMAGE IS FOUND, THE ENGINE WILL BE REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE. AS AN ADDED LEVEL OF PROTECTION, ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES WILL RECEIVE AN ENHANCED ENGINE CONTROL SOFTWARE UPDATE CONTAINING A NEW PISTON NOISE SENSING SYSTEM ("PNSS") PROGRAM. THE PNSS CONTINUOUSLY MONITORS ENGINE VIBRATIONS FOR UNUSUAL POTENTIALLY INDICATING AN ABNORMAL CONDITION WITH THE ENGINE, SUCH AS A DAMAGED CYLINDER BORE AND/OR PISTON SKIRT, WHICH COULD LEAD TO AN ENGINE FAILURE. THE PNSS IS CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT AND WILL BE APPLIED WHEN AVAILABLE. THE REMEDY PROCEDURE WILL BE PERFORMED AT NO CHARGE. HYUNDAI WILL PROVIDE REIMBURSEMENT TO OWNERS FOR REPAIRS ACCORDING TO THE PLAN SUBMITTED TO NHTSA ON MAY 16, 2018.

When the first owner(s) obtains a title from a Department of Motor Vehicles as proof of ownership.
Manufacturer Recall
Automobile manufacturers issue recall notices to inform vehicle owners of a safety defect or failure to meet minimum federal safety or emissions standards. Manufacturer recalls are repaired at no cost to the customer.
New Owner Reported
When a vehicle is sold to a new owner, the Title must be transferred to the new owner(s) at a Department of Motor Vehicles.
Ownership History
CARFAX defines an owner as an individual or business that possesses and uses a vehicle. Not all title transactions represent changes in ownership. To provide estimated number of owners, CARFAX proprietary technology analyzes all the events in a vehicle history. Estimated ownership is available for vehicles manufactured after 1991 and titled solely in the US including Puerto Rico. Dealers sometimes opt to take ownership of a vehicle and are required to in the following states: Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and South Dakota. Please consider this as you review a vehicle's estimated ownership history.
Title Issued
A state issues a title to provide a vehicle owner with proof of ownership. Each title has a unique number. Each title or registration record on a CARFAX report does not necessarily indicate a change in ownership. In Canada, a registration and bill of sale are used as proof of ownership.
CARFAX DEPENDS ON ITS SOURCES FOR THE ACCURACY AND RELIABILITY OF ITS INFORMATION. THEREFORE, NO RESPONSIBILITY IS ASSUMED BY CARFAX OR ITS AGENTS FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THIS REPORT. CARFAX FURTHER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
