How do I get through the phone menu to a live person?

Consider using our free service that calls and talks to customer service for you, then sends you a report. Or use our free service that waits on hold and tells you when a human rep is on the line. But if those options don't appeal to you, our team has also documented the phone menu for Hyundai below.

Let us call and talk to Hyundai for you

Our AI powered phone can dial, navigate the phone menu, wait on hold, and even talk to customer service for you, for free. You don't even need to learn about the path through the various phone options.

We can get a live person on the line for you

That same, free GetHuman Phone can call and navigate the menus and wait on hold for you, but you can opt to do all the talking. We notify you when a rep is on the line and ready to talk, so no need to worry about changing menu options and weaving your way through the maze.
Of course, we completely understand if you prefer to do all the dialing, waiting, and talking yourself. All of these free tools are optional.
GetHuman researchers routinely call this Hyundai phone number to document the phone system.
Here is our latest tip for weaving through the phone menu to get to a real person the fastest: Press 5, then 0
Below are some clips we've found from Hyundai's phone menus and tips that help give an idea of what you will encounter when you call. We've highlighted why they are important as well:

Heard when the phone system first answers

"For questions about Hyundai anti theft software upgrade, immobilizers, and steel wheel locks, please press nine. You've reached the Hyundai customer care center. If you require roadside assistance, press three."

What are the hours and when should I call?

Hyundai operates the call center for this 800-633-5151 phone number Mon-Fri 6am-5pm, Sat 6:30am-3pm PT. The short answer is that you should call on a Wednesday. This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 156 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).

Automatically call when they open

When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the Hyundai call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Hyundai phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Hyundai staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.

The least busy time to call

The least busy day to call Hyundai is Wednesday. The most busy day to call is Monday, which averages 71% more phone calls by comparison. Again, this is based on a sample of 156 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold

We measured the shortest hold times to be on Friday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Monday.
But if you use our free call and talk for me or wait on hold for me service, you don't really need to worry about average wait times.

The best time to call Hyundai

In summation, the best day to call Hyundai is Wednesday. This is not the day with the shortest wait on hold in the phone system, but we still recommend it for its ideal combination of low call volume and short hold times. Plus we believe that Hyundai staffs the call center well on Wednesday.

I needed help talking to someone about the Hyundai warranty plan that came with my car when I purchased it. Since I purchased a certified model, it was eligible for some additional warranties that I opted to buy at the time that I signed my purchase agreement. However, two years out, and I am experiencing some issues with my digital interface. I'm not sure if this falls under my warranty, but I certainly don't want to take it anywhere to get it repaired until I find out, so I called Hyundai first to talk to an agent about the issue. 

I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I got to someone, although the order of the messaging makes it obvious the company is still dealing with the theft issue. In fact, before it even informed me that I was talking to Hyundai, I was immediately instructed, "For questions about Hyundai anti-theft upgrade, immobilizers, and steerwheel locks, please press 9." You would think there would at least be a greeting before launching into any options, but there wasn't. After a brief pause, during which I pondered if I called the right number, I received an official greeting and a list of options. That was weird, but it doesn't overshadow how quick the phone call was, which was the best part. 

I was told, "You've reached the Hyundai customer care center." Following two language segments, the menu was launched. It told me, "If you require roadside assistance, press 3. For recall or service campaigns press 4. For Hyundai finance, including lease payments and affirmation lease plans, press 5. For Bluetooth, bluelink, and navigation, press 6. For Hyundai customer care, press 7."

None of these options will fit what I needed, so I took a second to think about which one I should press. I was leaning towards option 5 since my warranty was covered during the financing part of the visit. However, to my delight, by doing nothing, I was automatically forwarded to an agent, saving me the hassle of more directories. A message said, "Please hold for the next available representative. Your call may be recorded," and immediately someone picked up. 

It took me just a few seconds over a minute to actually talk to someone, which was just short of amazing really. They answered my questions, and I found out that my plan covered electronics, so now I have to call the dealer near me to schedule an appointment. It would have been nice if they could have transferred me there, but given how fast the call went, it wasn't much trouble to take the next step on my own.

Why Customers Call Hyundai

If you have time to do a bit of reading before you call Hyundai, we recommend you read over some of our problem-specific articles.

What is Hyundai's warranty coverage?

Hyundai's warranty coverage is designed to provide peace of mind to its customers. All new Hyundai vehicles come with a comprehensive 5-year/60,000-mile limited warranty that covers almost everything from bumper-to-bumper, ensuring that any defects in material or workmanship are repaired free of charge. Additionally, Hyundai offers a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty that safeguards the engine, transmission, and other vital components. This extensive coverage demonstrates Hyundai's commitment to building reliable and high-quality vehicles. Furthermore, Hyundai offers various warranties, including a 7-year/unlimited-mile anti-perforation warranty against rust and corrosion, and a 5-year/unlimited-mile roadside assistance program for emergencies, ensuring customers are supported throughout their ownership experience. Hyundai's warranty coverage exemplifies their dedication to customer satisfaction and has helped establish Hyundai as a trusted automotive brand.

What is Hyundai's safety rating?

Hyundai has consistently prioritized safety and all its vehicles have undergone rigorous testing and evaluations to ensure the utmost protection for drivers and passengers. As such, the safety rating of Hyundai vehicles can vary depending on the model and year. However, Hyundai has received numerous accolades for its commitment to safety, including being recognized as a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Furthermore, Hyundai prioritizes advanced safety features in its vehicles, such as Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Warning, and many more, to enhance overall safety performance. It is recommended to check the specific safety ratings for individual Hyundai models or visit the official Hyundai website for comprehensive information on a particular vehicle's safety rating.

Are there any recalls on Hyundai vehicles?

Yes, there have been recalls on certain Hyundai vehicles. As an automaker committed to providing safe and reliable vehicles, Hyundai takes recalls seriously. We collaborate closely with regulatory agencies such as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to identify and address any potential safety concerns. In the unlikely event that a recall is necessary, Hyundai promptly informs affected customers and provides free repairs or replacements to resolve the issue. To ensure your Hyundai is up to date with recalls, we recommend visiting our official website or contacting a Hyundai dealership. Our dedicated customer service team is always available to assist you with any concerns or questions regarding recalls.

More Hyundai Customer Service Contacts

There are of course other ways to contact Hyundai customer service besides the phone. Below we list the best ones, by medium.

Hyundai Customer Email Addresses

consumeraffairs@hmausa.com - Customer Service
Customer service email address
Corresponding with a customer service department by email may not be your first choice, especially if your issue is urgent or time-sensitive. But email is a nearly ubiquitous form of communication, and Hyundai will reply our your email.

Hyundai Customer Help Desk / Web Support

hyundaiusa.com - Customer Service
Online customer service submission form
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Hyundai customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
