Two No-Cost Anti-Theft Solutions

All Hyundai vehicles produced since November 2021 are equipped with an engine immobilizer as standard equipment.

Software Upgrade

Available for eligible Hyundai vehicles with turn-key ignition systems. The software modifies certain vehicle control modules so that locking the vehicle with the key fob activates the factory alarm and ignition-disabling feature. Customers must use the key fob to unlock the vehicle and deactivate the feature.

Zinc Ignition Cylinder Protector

A dealer-installed metal protector that reinforces the ignition cylinder and helps prevent its removal through the theft method popularized on social media. It is available at no cost for eligible vehicles.
