[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Hyundai Motor Company and Kia announced on the 28th that they will extend the quality warranty mileage by 2,000 km for vehicles individually delivered by employees due to the strike by the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions Cargo Solidarity.


Currently, Hyundai and Kia are implementing "road delivery," where delivery center employees personally drive finished vehicles to regional delivery centers nationwide, as the Cargo Solidarity union members who drive finished vehicle transport trucks called "car carriers" are participating in the strike, causing difficulties in securing transport vehicles.


Earlier, during the Cargo Solidarity strike in June, Hyundai and Kia also implemented similar compensation measures for road-delivered vehicles.



Vehicles delivered by road depart the factory in new condition, are driven to distant delivery centers, and then handed over to customers. Hyundai and Kia have decided to provide additional mileage coverage within the engine and general parts warranty scope to customers receiving vehicles in this condition.
