Skipping required oil changes can jeopardize warranty coverage if you don’t follow Hyundai’s maintenance schedule and keep records.

Hyundai expects owners to perform oil changes per the maintenance guide; proof of service helps validate claims. Dealership documentation and OEM-spec parts reduce disputes. Keep receipts and service logs for all maintenance performed in Albuquerque or elsewhere.

Full synthetic offers the most stable protection, especially in heat, cold starts, and dusty conditions common around Albuquerque.

Conventional oil meets basic standards; synthetic blend improves oxidation resistance; full synthetic resists breakdown and protects turbo-like heat loads—even though your Sonata’s 2.4L is naturally aspirated. Always choose an oil that meets Hyundai’s OEM spec and the viscosity in your owner’s manual.

• Full synthetic = best high-temp and cold-start protection
• Blend = step up from conventional for durability
• Use Hyundai-approved spec and correct viscosity

Then we drain the old oil, replace the crush washer as needed, install a Hyundai oil filter, and fill to capacity. A multi-point inspection checks tires, brakes, battery health, lights, belts, and hoses. Fluids are topped off, and tire pressures are set to placard. We reset the maintenance reminder and note the service on your invoice. Review current service specials and schedule service online—your documentation supports warranty compliance and future resale.

If you drive in severe conditions—high heat, frequent short trips, dusty roads, or extended idling—follow the severe‑service guidance in Hyundai’s maintenance schedule.
