Actually, according to Hyundai, it’s fine to tow with the front wheels on the ground and the rear wheels off the ground.

Okay, that’s true for RWD models.
If you keep the car and get the $12k, does the original warranty stay intact?

Yes. The only thing that changes is I can’t claim lemon law again.

I’d keep it then if I were you.

Keep it if it’s working well. You got an extra $12k discount for your troubles.

You can’t claim lemon law for the same issue, right?
Keep the cash and the car.
That’s not how you tow EVs.
I had a similar deal with my 2012 Hyundai Sonata hybrid. I sold it to Hyundai and didn’t take their cash offer. They replaced my engine and rebuilt the transmission twice and still had the same issue. I wouldn’t trust a car with my life that’s been in the shop multiple times.
With all those repairs on the Carfax, I wouldn’t keep this car. You won’t get what you could from Hyundai if you sell it later. See if you can trade it for something else and get a tax credit on your next vehicle, which could make that $30k more like $32k.
I wouldn’t keep the car if I were you. What do you mean by ‘whole computer system’? If it was just the info system, that’s one thing, but if it was the entire electronic system, including the MCU and safety system, I’d definitely reject it. That means the car was built wrong from the start.
So this isn’t the result, just you asking about the situation? Cool. Keep grinding that karma!
Wait, so it’s a lemon law buyback and you’re losing money after using the car for just a few months? I’m not sure I’d take that deal. If I were losing $7k, I’d talk to an attorney.
I’d push for a full refund, including insurance, tax, title, and doc fees. Talk to a lawyer.

They deduct mileage and depreciation from my refund. That’s what my lemon law lawyer said. It’s in the law.
@C.cole4
Ask if you can avoid deducting depreciation for the time the car was at the dealer.
If I saw all those repairs so soon after buying it, I wouldn’t buy it used. If you take the $12k, be ready to keep the car long term or you might struggle to sell it. If it’s working now and you love it, I’d go for it. If there are still issues, that’s risky since buyers can see the repair history.
Keep it. I’ve seen people remove the black rear spoiler, and it really smooths out the look of the car.
Sell the car back for $30k.
