My Sonata suffered irreparable damage related to this campaign as confirmed by HMA. 49 U.S.C. \u00a7 30120(a)(1)(A) allows HMA to choose one of three remedies: repair, replacement, or refund.  However, they 1) say it cannot be safely repaired, 2) will not replace it, and 3) are not offering a repurchase as required by statute, i.e. \"by refunding the purchase price, less a reasonable allowance for depreciation.\"  Instead, Hyundai's case manager Aditya informed me on 5/29/2026 at 12:57 PM that they will make a repurchase offer \"based on the Kelly Blue Book value.\" I protested and cited the statute, but he maintained that Hyundai has their process and subsequently gave an unconscionably low offer that was not based on any reasonable measure of depreciation.  I insisted on a reasonable, defensible calculation. I proposed 1) using the state formula for calculating reasonable depreciation as applied in both Texas and California (HMA and my home states), or 2) using actual market values (of which I have tangible data) to determine the actual market loss in value. Hyundai has rejected both of these reasonable proposals in favor of an arbitrary formula that would leave me with thousands of dollars in lost value. On June 9, 2026, when I pressed Executive Case Manager Jenifer for an explanation of their proposed depreciation formula, she only stated that \"it\u2019s a standard calculation across the board\" and that it applies \"regardless of state\" and they \"will not change it.\"  The NHTSA discussed this behavior in its Final Order and Determination against Fiat in Federal Register Vol. 45 No. 7, and endorsed a \"reasonable\" model similar to my proposal #2 above. It found Fiat non-compliant for its behavior which had a nearly similar impact.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2020","productMake":"HYUNDAI","productModel":"SONATA","manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America"}]}]}
