Check Engine Light Flashing
A flashing check engine light in a 2016 Hyundai Genesis is a signal that the engine is misfiring or that a condition exists that can cause immediate damage — stop driving and have the vehicle inspected without delay. Misfires can overheat and damage the catalytic converter, leading to far costlier repairs than the original issue; for example, ignoring a persistent misfire can turn a simple ignition coil or spark plug replacement into a catalytic converter job that can exceed a thousand dollars. At Stevinson Hyundai in Colorado, our priority is protecting your vehicle and minimizing lifetime costs. We perform a full diagnostic, including battery and charging system tests, because electrical issues can mimic other faults. Our technicians use Hyundai factory tools and OEM parts to ensure repairs solve the root cause, not just the symptom. We also provide transparent estimates, explain warranty coverage requirements — repairs under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership — and offer service financing so you can get repairs now and pay later. To get prioritized attention, please schedule service online or check current service specials before you arrive.
2016 Hyundai Genesis Check Engine Light Codes
Common codes on a 2016 Hyundai Genesis include P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0171 (system too lean), P0420 (catalyst efficiency below threshold), and P0455 (evap leak). Each code carries escalating costs if left unchecked: misfires reduce fuel efficiency and can ruin the catalytic converter; a P0420 left alone can lead to expensive emissions-related parts and failed inspections; evap leaks cause persistent odor and poor fuel economy. At Stevinson Hyundai in CO we diagnose codes promptly, show you the scanned data, and outline immediate and long-term savings from proper OEM repairs. Because we use factory parts and certified Hyundai procedures, our service often ends up being less expensive over time than repeated fixes at an independent shop. We provide clear estimates, service financing to spread costs, and can bundle repairs with seasonal maintenance through our service specials. For peace of mind and documented repairs that protect warranties and resale value, schedule appointment with our service center today.
2016 Hyundai Genesis Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting the check engine light on a 2016 Hyundai Genesis is straightforward with an OBD-II tool, but resetting without repairing the underlying cause only hides the problem and risks further damage. Stevinson Hyundai recommends a full diagnostic and repair before clearing codes so the fix is permanent and covered under any applicable warranty; remember that warranty repairs must be done at a certified dealership. Our technicians will explain the fault, walk you through OEM repair options, and provide written estimates showing how proper repairs save money over time by maintaining fuel economy and preventing catastrophic component failures. We also perform battery and charging system testing as part of many diagnostics because a failing battery can create false codes.
