At Crain Hyundai of Fayetteville, we know that safety matters—especially when you’re driving around Northwest Arkansas with your family, friends, or pets in tow. That’s why we’re proud to announce that Hyundai has earned five 2025 Top Safety Pick+ awards from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). These honors reflect Hyundai’s commitment to protecting all passengers—not just those in the front seat, but also those in the back. As winners of these prestigious awards, Hyundai vehicles have excelled in various safety evaluations, making them some of the best choices for safety within their size categories. Whether you’re navigating traffic on College Avenue, heading out to the trails around Lake Fayetteville, or taking a weekend road trip to Devil’s Den, you can drive with confidence knowing Hyundai is building vehicles with your safety in mind. What's New for 2025? IIHS Raises the Bar Each year, IIHS updates its testing standards to make vehicles safer than ever. For 2025, the biggest change involves a more rigorous evaluation for second-row passenger safety. This updated moderate overlap front crash test now includes a second dummy seated behind the driver—representing a smaller adult or child—to evaluate how well back-seat passengers are protected during a crash. Here’s what it now takes to qualify: Top Safety Pick: Requires at least an acceptable rating in the new rear-seat crash test. Top Safety Pick+: Requires a good rating in that same test. These tests highlight a key concern. Many modern vehicles do a great job protecting front-seat occupants but lag behind when it comes to second-row safety. IIHS is pushing automakers to close that gap—and Hyundai is leading the charge. Additional 2025 IIHS requirements include: Good ratings in the updated side crash test and small overlap front crash test Acceptable or good performance in pedestrian crash prevention (day and night) Good rated headlights on all available trims Hyundai's 2025 Safety Superstars Even with the tougher standards, five Hyundai models earned the top-tier Top Safety Pick+ rating: 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 (Electric) 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6 (Electric) 2025 Hyundai Kona (Gas model only) 2025 Hyundai Tucson and Tucson Hybrid 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe and Santa Fe Hybrid*(built after November 2024)* These awards aren’t handed out lightly. Each vehicle was put through a battery of crash tests and real-world safety evaluations conducted under the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP)—and came out on top. Extensive research by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) plays a crucial role in these evaluations, ensuring that safety standards are rigorously maintained. Hyundai Motor Group: Leading the Industry It’s not just Hyundai that’s racking up safety awards. Hyundai’s sister brands—Kia and Genesis—also performed exceptionally well. Together, Hyundai Motor Group claimed a total of 12 Top Safety Pick or Pick+ awards, making it the #1 safety leader in the industry for 2025. Organizations like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), a nonprofit scientific entity, play a crucial role in evaluating and promoting vehicle safety standards. This isn’t a one-time win—Hyundai Motor Group has a proven track record of building safer vehicles year after year. They consistently earn high marks across multiple safety categories. Safety professionals at IIHS emphasize the importance of reducing deaths and injuries from motor vehicle crashes. Hyundai Motor Group's commitment to safety aligns with this mission. Built with Your Safety in Mind Hyundai doesn’t just meet the safety standards—they exceed them by designing with real families in mind. That’s why so many of their award-winning vehicles include Hyundai SmartSense, a collection of advanced safety features that work together to protect you from every angle by integrating advanced technology. These features include: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist – Helps prevent accidents with vehicles or pedestrians Blind-Spot Collision Warning – Alerts you when vehicles are in your blind spot Lane Keeping Assist – Helps you stay centered in your lane Rear Occupant Alert – Reminds you to check the back seat before exiting Side airbags for rear passengers – Adds extra protection during a crash Hyundai vehicles are also rigorously tested for crashworthiness, ensuring they meet and exceed federal safety standards. “We want every passenger—front or back—to be safe,” Cole Stutz, Hyundai’s Chief Safety Officer, said. “That’s why we’ve added better seat belts, advanced airbags, and rear occupant alert systems to many of our models.” Why This Matters for Fayetteville Families Fayetteville is a fast-growing, family-friendly community, and we know your vehicle has to keep up. Whether you’re: Commuting to the University of Arkansas Driving the kids to school and soccer practice Heading out for a weekend at Beaver Lake You want a car that’s ready for anything. Safety isn’t just about surviving a crash—it’s about preventing one altogether and minimizing injuries if one occurs. And that’s where Hyundai excels. As IIHS President David Harkey put it, “Every vehicle that earns a 2025 award offers a high level of safety in both the front seat and the second row.” This focus on safety is crucial in reducing deaths and injuries. That means families, solo drivers, and first-time car buyers can all trust Hyundai to deliver peace of mind behind the wheel.

The automotive market is currently flooded with SUVs, but there are still people out there who prefer a well-made, high-performing sporty sedan like the Hyundai Elantra N.

Let's take a look at some of the features you'll find when you check out this car at your local Hyundai dealer. 1.

The Intuitive Safety System Hyundai Safety Sense equips your vehicle with a vast range of safety features to help you feel more secure on your journeys. The driver attention warning aspect is a particularly fantastic feature for drivers who frequently need to drive early in the morning or late at night when they might be drowsy.

Driver attention warning monitors you while you drive and alerts you when your attention is dwindling. Other features you'll find include lane-keeping assist, blindspot collision avoidance assist, lane-following assist, and rear cross-traffic collision avoidance assist. 4.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​You've made the right choice and decided on a Hyundai. After much thought and probably a test drive or two, you've also chosen the model and trim you want. Your Hyundai is an investment, and you want to keep it in good condition for years to come. Even a Hyundai requires regular maintenance, so you want to find the right extended warranty plan for you. As your Hyundai dealer, we'd like you to know the various options we have available. Standard Warranties Your new Hyundai comes with several warranties already in place. These are a New Vehicle Limited Warranty, a Powertrain Limited Warranty, and an Anti-Perforation Warranty. The New Vehicle warranty covers the first five years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. It covers repairs or replacement for any Hyundai-installed component that fails under normal conditions or maintenance. The Powertrain warranty covers selected engine and transmission components against damage or defects. This warranty term is the best and most comprehensive in the automobile industry, as its 100,000-mile/10-year coverage is double the duration of any competitor. Finally, the Anti-Perforation warranty covers 7 years and unlimited mileage and protects against rust-through corrosion on any body sheet metal sections. Extended Warranties Beyond the standard warranties, you can choose from two extended warranties known as Vehicle Service Contracts (VSC). Certified pre-owned Hyundai owners have the option to take out the Certified Pre-Owned Wrap option. The VSC options extend warranties on parts and components even further. Both plans include nationwide service, 24-hour roadside assistance, towing, and reimbursement for a rental car or travel interruption. Let's take a look at the Gold VSC, Platinum VSC, and Certified Pre-Owned Wrap. Gold VSC A Gold warranty covers numerous components for up to 10 years or 100,000 miles. Some of the components covered are: Engine Transmission Drive Axle Shocks Front and rear suspension Electrical System Fuel System Climate control Platinum VSC If you'd like even more peace of mind, Hyundai has you covered. Their most comprehensive plan, the Platinum VSC, includes everything in the Gold VSC and adds: Steering Brakes CV boots Navigation Audio High-tech Certified Pre-Owned Wrap This option is a great choice for any certified pre-owned Hyundai. Mechanical repair, parts, and labor for over 1,500 components are covered by this warranty. The only payment you make is the deductible you choose in the policy. The unused part of your policy is transferrable to the new owner if you sell your car. Repairs and maintenance can be a worry for any driver, as they always seem to be needed at the most unexpected times. Call us today at Crain Hyundai of Fayetteville for more information and to choose the option that's right for you.

Ignition coils are key components of an engine's combustion process. As you drive, each ignition coil transforms the battery's relatively low electrical current into bursts of extremely high voltage for the spark plugs. When an ignition coil begins to malfunction, you'll notice the following problems with your car. It's best to have a faulty ignition coil quickly cleaned or replaced at your local Hyundai dealer. Misfiring Cylinders Without the steady supply of electrical power an ignition coil provides, the corresponding spark plug will start misfiring. This causes sputtering sounds and can also make the engine jolt and shudder. The RPMs in your dashboard gauge will also become erratic. Diminished Acceleration When at least one cylinder starts misfiring, your engine is no longer functioning properly. You'll soon notice a loss in accelerative power, especially when you need to speed up while coming out of a bend in the road or overtaking another vehicle. Dropping Fuel Efficiency With a failing ignition coil and a misfiring spark plug, your engine won't be burning fuel as efficiently. You'll soon find yourself needing to refill your tank more frequently. Hard Starts Starting your car requires strong and reliable sparking inside the combustion chambers, especially on cold winter mornings. If one of your ignition coils is failing to deliver that voltage, your engine may struggle to start. Sudden Stalling An insufficient supply of electricity also makes it harder for engines to keep going in idle. With a faulty coil, you may find your car stalling when you pause at traffic lights. Backfiring When a spark plug begins to misfire, the fuel being injected into the combustion chamber may begin to build up. This excess of unburned fuel can then all ignite at once outside of the cylinder's ordinary ignition rhythm. If the fuel ignites just as the cylinder is opening, you'll hear a loud bang from below. Sometimes, unburned fuel can start to leak back through the exhaust system, where it's at risk of igniting inside the catalytic converter. If this happens, you'll also hear a bang, and you'll need to buy a new cat. Black Exhaust Smoke When fuel leaks back through the exhaust, it may eventually emerge from the tailpipe in the form of black smoke. If you ever notice smoke in your exhaust fumes behind you, one of your ignition coils may be the culprit. Check Engine Light The various engine problems caused by a faulty coil will be detected by the computerized sensors in your car. As a result, the check engine light will soon come alive on your dashboard. Have your ignition coils checked, cleaned, or replaced today at Crain Hyundai of Fayetteville. We're the region's number-one most trusted dealership for Hyundai vehicles.
