How safe is Blue Link?
Thieves Can Remotely Start Cars With Hyundai’s “Blue Link” Vulnerability (Update: Hyundai’s Statement) A weakness in Hyundai’s “Blue Link” program was found by researchers Will Hatzer and Arjun Kumar from the enterprise security firm Rapid7, which might have allowed auto thieves to remotely start Hyundai vehicles.
Does the Hyundai navigation system require a membership?
Hyundai Blue Link is a free standard feature that comes with most new Hyundai vehicles and is typically free for the first three years. After that, the driver will need to begin a paid subscription to continue using the service’s capabilities.
The Blue Link has WiFi.
Your Hyundai Blue Link(r) system might provide Wi-Fi connectivity depending on the version. Updates to the operating system have been known to alter how this function can be accessed and used.
Follow these steps to check if your Hyundai Blue Link(r) can connect to Wi-Fi:
- On the infotainment system’s home screen, click the gear symbol to access the “Setup Menu.”
- In this menu, there will be a Wi-Fi choice if your system is compatible with it.
- Selecting the Wi-Fi option will display a list of available networks. To connect, pick one and enter the relevant password.
Your machine cannot connect to Wi-Fi if your copy of Blue Link(r) lacks the Wi-Fi menu or if it is grayed out. Instead, it will keep using the cell signal to connect to the internet. This is how Hyundai Blue Link typically operates.
Even if your Hyundai Blue Link(r) system does connect to Wi-Fi, it probably won’t use the signal for much of the time; probably only for updates and downloads from the Hyundai App Store.
Blue Link is it anti-theft?
You can find your stolen automobile even faster with Blue Link(r). Blue Link(r) can provide local law police access to your car’s precise position and even disable the engine until it is found.
In Canada, is Blue Link free?
Our linked car technology, Bluelink(r), provides a number of services at the touch of a button and makes it simple to stay in touch with your Hyundai via a smartphone app.
With this cutting-edge connected system, you can start, lock, and modify the climate of your car from a distance. You can also use the diagnostic tools to monitor your car’s health.
Has Hyundai installed a tracking system?
The MyHyundai with Bluelink Mobile App is used to access the Car Finder feature. If your GPS signal is within a mile of your vehicle, this feature enables you to locate your car on a map and allows you to bookmark the location of your car for later use.
How long does Blue Link take to start working?
After emailing this, give Bluelink another call in 24 hours and urge them to process the VIN clear. You can then manually add the automobile to your account by using the VIN after this is completed. However, it often takes them 1-3 hours to make all features operational after the VIN is added to your account and services are purchased. At this point, you can attempt activating again.
Since I had already gone through the process—which only took me a single day because I was aware that the online submission form wasn’t functional—I was able to ask several of the experienced Bluelink employees about the system’s ins and outs. However, compared to many of the users here, my experience was significantly less unpleasant.
The online VIN clear submission form should never be used. Your contribution is placed at the bottom of the support queue because the ticket creation system is malfunctioning and treats it as a low priority issue.
If MyHyundai has Blue Link, how do I know?
Which Hyundai models come with Blue Link? The majority of Hyundai cars from 2013 and later are now equipped with Blue Link, which first debuted on the 2012 Sonata. Blue Link is not available in vehicles manufactured after 2013, such as the 2013-2017 Accent, 2013 Elantra sedan, and 2013 Tucson.
Why is Blue Link unavailable on MyHyundai?
According to a letter delivered to dealerships, Hyundai will stop supporting its Blue Link telematics technology in older vehicles after 2021, as was first revealed by CarsDirect. The business plans to disable the Blue Link systems in Hyundais with model years 2012 through 2016 on January 1, 2022.
The letter states that the 2G cellular service that drives the system will no longer be supported by the system’s network supplier, Aeris Communications. In effect, this implies that many of the Hyundais’ safety and security measures will be turned off. Roadside assistance, SOS emergency assistance, stolen car tracking, and automated collision warning are some of these services.
All 2012-2014 Hyundai models, the majority of 2015 models (apart from the Sonata and Genesis sedans with navigation), and the 2016 Sonata Hybrid, Equus, Elantra, Elantra GT, Santa Fe, and Veloster models without navigation are on the list of Hyundai vehicles with Blue Link that are affected.
The automaker responded to our request for comment with the following statement:
These wireless service providers, who are not under the authority of Hyundai or Hyundai Blue Link, maintain the cellular networks. The wireless service provider of the network that permits the use of 2G Hyundai Blue Link devices recently announced that it will stop providing 2G cellular network service by December 31, 2021, as a result of advancements in telecommunications technology throughout time. Any trouble this may create is much regretted.
It is, to put it mildly, intriguing that contemporary technologies in our vehicles, which we depend on every day, might be overnight judged obsolete. To that aim, a complimentary three-year Blue Link membership is included with all current Hyundai cars. It offers features like remote car finder, on-demand diagnostics and alarms, and remote start with climate control.
My stolen Hyundai can it be tracked?
Hyundai will work with local law enforcement officials to use GPS to locate your car if it is stolen. This makes sure you can return to your car as fast, safely, and stress-free as possible.
Any car can have remote starting added.
We want to make sure you are aware of all your alternatives when choosing a remote car starter system for your vehicle. The following information about factory key fobs and remote auto starters will help you choose a system that will meet your needs.
Add a car remote starter to the OEM key fob you already have.
Usually, you can add remote starters to your current manufacturer key fob. However, the range from which you can start your car will only be as far as your factory remote’s range. As a result, when you remote start your car, you won’t be able to unlock it with the factory remote since many cars, including those made by Honda and Toyota, block the keyless entry function of the remote fob while the engine is running. To unlock the vehicle, you will need to insert your key into the door.
