Why Genuine Accessory

"Floor Mat - Tailor Made"

There is a dignity that a well-cut suit gives. The fit considering the material of the fabric and the curves of the human body provides a good impression and comfortable fit. The same is true for items worn on cars.

Our genuine product floor mats are manufactured by using actual floor drawing data from the HKMC R&D center where the vehicle was designed. Along the curved surface of the bottom of the vehicle, mats fit on a floor.


The shape of the mat which is closed to the pedal is determined so as not to interfere with pedaling in consideration of the shape and position of the pedal. The position of the grommet for fixing the mat is designed to fit precisely through the vehicle's 3D DATA. The mat designed in this way provides an optimized fit for vehicles that cannot be imitated by reverse engineering.

Quality is also strictly verified. Genuine product mats undergo quality tests based on the same standards as automobile interior materials. Standards for representatives include harmfulness to humans and flame retardancy. In addition, an odor evaluation is performed to ensure that there is no chemical odor. It also includes a contamination assessment that evaluates whether it is easily damaged by household chemicals such as cleaning products. This is to enable drivers to use high-quality mats safely for a long time.

Hyundai Shows Results of Using Non OEM Parts. - Korean Car Blog

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends that vehicle owners work with their automotive dealers and repair professionals to ensure appropriate OEM parts are used in the event they need a new airbag.

[ads id=&#;0&#; style=&#;float:left;padding:9px;&#;]Hyundai is tackling the issue of counterfeit, aftermarket, salvaged and recycled auto parts through a consumer awareness campaign, highlighting the differences between non-Hyundai and Hyundai Genuine Parts. The integrated media, advertising and public relations campaign will focus on safety and resale value. Hyundai is launching a series of videos, which can be found on the Hyundai USA&#;s YouTube channel or at HyundaiUSA.com/ConsumerAwareness. The first video in the series is titled &#;Don&#;t Gamble with Counterfeit Parts.&#; The videos and dealership displays with examples of original and fake parts will help consumers see the differences first hand. In addition, Hyundai will be communicating the consumer awareness campaign via to its current owners.

Testing of a Non-OEM airbag vs. a Hyundai Genuine airbag

&#;Counterfeit Hyundai parts have been a growing problem over the last 30 years,&#; said Frank Ferrara, executive vice president, customer satisfaction, Hyundai Motor America. &#;Customers would see short-term savings after their vehicle was repaired, not even aware that non-Hyundai parts were used to bring these repair costs down. Short-term savings can have adverse long-term implications on the vehicle and passengers, which ultimately ends up costing more. Consumer awareness is essential to addressing this issue and Hyundai is willing to do its part. The more people who understand the dangers behind using non-Hyundai components and see the benefits of purchasing original parts, the less likely they are to suffer severe consequences and lose value on their car. Safety and trust are paramount to our brand, which is why we are launching this campaign to encourage everyone to purchase original parts, every time.&#;

[ads id=&#;0&#; style=&#;float:left;padding:9px;&#;]This campaign is the third program Hyundai has implemented to support its dealerships, strengthen relationships with collision repair centers and ensure the safety of Hyundai owners. The Hyundai Go Genuine Collision Conquest and Hyundai Recognized Collision Repair Center programs encourage repair facilities to use Hyundai Genuine Parts to make sure Hyundai vehicles are repaired properly and safely back to manufacturer specifications.

Due to perceived high costs, motorists sometimes choose, or are told by their insurance company, to visit independent repair shops that are not recognized by the automakers for collision repairs. Some of these shops offer copies of original parts or recycled components from existing collision-damaged vehicles at a lower cost. Often these parts are unsafe for long-term use and pose a great danger to safety. Counterfeit and recycled crash parts also affect the vehicle&#;s appearance and decrease its resale value. Hyundai encourages the use of OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts on all Hyundai vehicle repairs because they are designed and manufactured to meet Hyundai&#;s engineering specifications. Hyundai does not recommend the use, or re-use, of components removed or recycled from an existing collision-damaged vehicle. Owners need to be aware, it can be hard finding out if their repair facility is using non-original equipment parts or parts that have been damaged due to a prior collision or element exposure.

Hyundai Genuine Parts are manufactured to exact engineering specifications for a precise fit without modifications, ensuring quick and proper installation. They are also tested to ensure they meet the U.S. government&#;s collision safety and crash protection standards. Hyundai parts have high reliability because they are made from high-quality materials.

Use of imitation, aftermarket, alternative or other non-original equipment Hyundai parts may negatively affect vehicle crashworthiness and occupant safety during a collision, and is not recommended by Hyundai.

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimates that counterfeit automobile parts cost the global automotive parts industry $12 billion in lost sales a year, including $3 billion in the U.S. alone. The FTC also estimates that the U.S. auto parts industry lost sales to counterfeit parts correlates to approximately 200,000 &#; 250,000 fewer manufacturing jobs.

Hyundai Recognized Collision Repair Center Program
The Hyundai Recognized Collision Repair program ensures both independent and Hyundai dealership-owned collision repair centers have the training, tools, equipment and facilities needed to properly repair Hyundai vehicles after they have been involved in a collision.

Customers can look for the Hyundai Recognized Collision Repair Center plaque at their local collision repair center to know if their Hyundai will be repaired properly and safely to manufacturer specifications. The program will allow Hyundai to refer its owners in need of collision repair to a recognized center.

Hyundai has teamed up with Assured Performance Network on this program. Assured Performance Network is a non-profit consumer advocacy organization that will guarantee both Hyundai dealership-owned and independent collision repair centers meet the program&#;s specified capability requirements, and pass an annual onsite audit and inspection. Assured Performance Network will also manage enrollment, online support systems, proof of compliance documentation and marketing.

Hyundai Go Genuine Collision Conquest Program
[ads id=&#;0&#; style=&#;float:left;padding:9px;&#;]The Hyundai Go Genuine Collision Conquest program provides reimbursement to Hyundai dealers, allowing them to competitively price their Hyundai Genuine Parts against alternative, non-Hyundai parts. Competitive prices help collision repair facilities purchase more Hyundai Genuine Parts as opposed to alternative, non-Hyundai parts. Using Hyundai Genuine replacement parts during the collision repair process provides confidence that the parts will perform as designed and engineered by Hyundai. The program is launching with five commonly required collision parts, including hoods, fenders, bumper covers, head lamps and tail lamps. These parts and the reimbursement associated with them are available for all Hyundai vehicles, regardless of age, for all participating dealers.
