That’s why the Hyundai Motor Company has committed to sponsoring NBC’s Super Bowl XLIII Kick-Off Show. The package gives Hyundai three more 30-second advertising spots before the game as well as naming rights.

Hyundai plans to focus on three messages throughout each of its advertising spots. One focus is placed on the new 2010 Genesis Coupe that is coming to the North American market in the spring. Another focus is placed on the Genesis sedan’s “2009 North American Car of the Year” award. Finally, Hyundai wants to bring more attention to its Assurance Program which allows buyers to return their new Hyundai if they lose their income involuntarily.

With all of the great things going on at Hyundai, what’s stopping you from visiting your Springfield area Hyundai dealer in search of a great deal on a new or pre-owned car? You should visit one today and beat the after-Super Bowl rush on Monday!

1. Stay calm. If you try to fight back or stoop to their level, it will only make the situation worse. Chances are that they will only be furious for a few seconds before realizing how stupid they are being.
2. Call the police. If you feel like you are in danger and the other driver is out of control, call the police. The mad driver may settle down if they think you are talking to the police.
3. Keep your eyes on the road. You may have the urge to watch the driver to see what they are doing, but keep your eyes on the road so you don’t make another mistake that could be worse than the one you just committed.

A Hyundai spokesperson confirmed that the automaker is going to have a prominent presence and product-integration sponsorship in 24′s seventh season, which began airing recently. “We’re delighted with the exposure we have received from one of the top-rated shows on TV,” he explained. “It’s a great way to open eyes to our terrific products.”

Data from Nielsen IAG shows that “Hyundai’s integrations on the show were twice as effective as brand messaging elsewhere in primetime, with brand recall 124 percent higher than for other primetime shows.” In layman’s terms, that means that viewers are recognizing the Hyundai brand a lot more than other brands. The fact that 24 is one of the network’s most influential programs for new cars is only going to help the popularity of cars at your Hyundai dealer explode!

Hyundai also has ads slated to run during this year’s Super Bowl. With all of this advertising in high places, it’s no wonder that your Hyundai dealer is one of the most popular places to visit for a great deal on a new or certified used car.

1. Do not display decals from your car alarm’s company anywhere on the car. This could give the would-be car thief a clue as to how to disarm your alarm. Keep them guessing and they are less likely to mess with your car.
2. Keep your insurance and registration with you. It has personal information on it that a car thief could use to rob your house or even steal your identity.
3. Always take your keys without. This may seem like a no-brainer, but many car owners lose their cars because they leave their car running as they jump out for a “quick second.” That’s all it takes for a car thief to jump in and speed away.
4. Don’t leave a spare key “hidden.” Thieves know the usual hiding places and they will find it. Just be extra cautious so you never lose your keys or leave them locked inside the car.

Your East Brunswick area Hyundai dealer and your local New Jersey dealership wants you to stay safe without becoming a victim. Use these tips and you’ll be less likely to be the target of car thieves.

When you finance or lease a new car from a Hyundai dealership, you can just walk away from your financial commitment in the following instances:

• You lose your job through no control of your own.
• You become physically disabled to work.
• You lose your license as the result of a medical condition or impairment.
• Your job transfers you to another country.
• You have a self-employed personal bankruptcy.
• You die.
Okay, so that last one is basically a given, but still. This is the first time any automaker has offered a program like this. “We wanted to restore consumer confidence back into the market. We’re [going to] take the care back while you walk away from the deal,” said one official with Hyundai. The program also includes coverage for $7,500 in negative equity.

The program applies to all new cars at your Hyundai dealership as long as you make at least the first two payments on the financing agreement. With a deal like this, what’s stopping you from running to your Springfield area Hyundai dealer today and taking advantage of the Hyundai Assurance Program?

Courteousness as a defensive driving technique is important for several reasons. In addition to helping to keep people safe behind the wheel, courteousness also keeps traffic moving. Instead of keeping other drivers from merging when it is necessary, letting them cut in front of you helps prevent traffic jams, bottlenecks and even accidents. Besides, letting someone in front of you only adds a second to your driving time (if that long).

When being a courteous driver, try to observe what is going on around you and try to look a few seconds into the future. Sacrificing a few extra seconds of your day can help save your life or the life of another driver. Your Somerville area Hyundai dealer urges you to use some common courtesy when you are behind the wheel. We’re just all trying to get home in one piece even if that means being late.

Consumer Reports recently named the 2009 Hyundai Genesis as its “top upscale sedan in comparison testing.” That means the 2009 Genesis beat out other popular luxury vehicles like the Lexus ES and others to impress the reviewers at one of the most respected consumer publications in the world. Here are some of the quotes that Consumer Reports had about Hyundai’s first attempt at creating a luxury vehicle:

• “spacious and well appointed”
• “The rear-wheel-drive Genesis offers good value and is a compelling alternative to luxury vehicles costing thousands more.”
• “Solidifies [Hyundai's] reputation as a builder of high-quality vehicles in several diverse automotive segments.”

However, when you visit your Somerville area Hyundai dealer in search of the new Genesis, you may not see the Hyundai logo on the front of this luxury vehicle. That’s because the automaker did not want to take a risk in alienating consumers who do not respect Hyundai as a luxury car manufacturer. Jalopnik, another website that specializes in reporting news in the auto industry, had this to say about the 2009 Hyundai Genesis: “The Genesis easily satisfies the needs of entry-level luxury buyers if they’re willing to look past the badge snobbery.”

I’m sure many people will be willing to look past “the brand” and appreciate the Genesis once they take it for a ride.
