Hyundai Position Statement: Pre- And Post-Repair System Scanning - UPDATE
I-CAR · June 23, 2025 · Hyundai
Summary
Hyundai Motor America requires both a pre-repair scan and a post-repair scan on all vehicles involved in a collision to ensure safe, accurate repairs and proper system communication. These scans are mandatory regardless of whether any warning lights or malfunction indicator lights are illuminated on the dashboard.
What to do on the job
Perform and document both a pre-repair scan and a post-repair scan on all Hyundai vehicles involved in a collision, regardless of dashboard warning light status.
How to use it
Use this position statement to justify the necessity and billing of both pre- and post-repair diagnostic scans on all Hyundai vehicles. It serves as official OEM documentation to counter insurer pushback regarding the absence of dashboard warning lights, as Hyundai explicitly states scans are required regardless of whether a malfunction indicator light is illuminated.
