"It's very significant for both Hyundai and LG as we are in the early stages of the electric vehicle era. How Hyundai handles this will set a precedent not just in South Korea but also for other countries," said Lee Hang-koo, senior researcher at the Korea Institute for Industrial Economics & Trade.

Hyundai Auto Canada licensing should be reviewed by Hyundai Motor Company, world corporate company who owns the Hyundai brand.

Hyundai Canada, its dealerships who are not authorized to repair a Hyundai EV can sell them. Getting the LG recall completed can be interesting when the dealership who sells the EV cannot carry out the recall.

Hyundai Canada carrying out the LG recall has been terrible at best. They didn't have a recall line to handle customer's concerns over their Kona potentially igniting without warning. Hyundai Motor Company didn't help by not acknowledging a physical defect in the LG battery pack as soon as they knew.Instead, it continued to release software updates to affected Kona electrics. Where owners were forced to reduce their range to 80%.In Canadian cold climates, this can be a nightmare considering owners bought the Kona to be able to handle their needs. Transport Canada rated 415 km. From climbing mountains, to sub zero temperatures where the range lost could be over 100 km, thus the imposed range reduction isn't insignificant.

Hyundai Canada has terrible customer service, the Google, dealership reviews are genuine. Note, April 18,2023, Transport Canada fines Hyundai for violating the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, " failing to send out notices of safety defect within 60 days."

Hyundai Canada does not share Hyundai Motor's vision.
