VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
I was driving on the highway using advanced highway assist and the car became completely unresponsive. I was traveling 75mph on a major highway with a semi behind me and one to my right in the slow lane. The car stopped accelerating and I was unable to resume driving. I was forced to coast to a stop on the side of the highway. I had my daughter with me and were I not able to safely maneuver between the semi trucks, we could have been killed or seriosuly injured in a high speed crash.

Defect Description:
VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
Hyundai describes the lack on rear window wiper on this hatchback/suv as handled by the 'air wiper' the include air ducts allow for. The problem is that this 'air wiper' only works if it is actually actively raining AND you are driving at highway speeds. At any other time the rear window is almost always dirty and has no way of being cleaned while driving the car. One would need to pull over to a gas station to clean the window if on the road. Not sure you have a resolution section but the resolution would be to require Hyundai to install a rear wiper with wiper fluid mechanism.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The car randomly stops charging when plugged into either of my Level 2 home Juicebox 40 chargers before it reaches capacity, generally after adding another 4-8% to the battery. It was impossible for me to fully charge the car without plugging it in multiple times. The service people including the EV specialist said they hadn’t heard of this problem, and it was probably due to my charging unit at home. See the attached service and repair invoice . This was not true It is apparently a well-known defect in the Hyundai and Genesis cars using this platform and Hyundai is aware of the issue. it is not a problem with my charger. It happens whether it is hot or cold and generally when it is cooler as we only charge the car at night. Please note the following: 1.Saying this was a unique isolated problem was NOT accurate as this is a problem with many Hyundai and Genesis cars on this battery/charging platform. The Hyundai forums are full of these accounts, and they occur with all different types of chargers. For instance, see: a.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3eh0BTSdng b.https://www.reddit.com/r/Ioniq5/comments/wrilke/ioniq_5_stops_charging_randomly_on_level_2_any/ c.https://www.ioniqforum.com/threads/charging-issues.42357/ d.https://www.kiaevforums.com/threads/charging-problem-automatically-stops-charging-at-home-the-charging-for-ev6-failed-please-check-vehicle.3659/page-12 3.The Ioniq 5 charges fine on level 3 superchargers 4.I spoke to Juicebox and they said other Ioniq 5 owners have reported the same problem in fact before I even mentioned the car I had, when I mentioned the problems, the technical advisor said, “Do you have an Ioniq 5?” He showed me downloaded graphs that show that the Ioniq 5 halts charges prior to being fully charged even though the charger is delivering power to the car. 5. I called Hyundai and they said they would look into this, but other people have received the same response, but nothing has been done

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I parked the car end visited a store. Upon turning the car back on, the car freaked out and indicated that I needed to "Stop vehicle and check brake system." At the same time, the check engine light illuminated and the car entered limp home mode. CEL codes C164286 & C238001 appeared. The next day I brought the car to a Hyundai dealer who "fixed" the issue by removing a component that is unrelated to the braking and security systems and the car became drivable again for ~300 miles. I then went on two business trips and returned home. I drove the car and it again experienced the same error upon turning the car on. The braking system still functioned, but all electronic features were disabled by the car and braking involved a lot of force on the brake pedal to get the car to stop. For as long as I've owned the car, it has (infrequently) flashed the "Check automatic lane change system" when the car is turned on but the error goes away and doesn't return for weeks to months. The car is now back with the dealer who "fixed" the issue originally but their EV tech isn't always there to look at cars, even though the issue is not necessarily EV related as all cars (should) have brakes. Original incident: 9/8/2022, Second Occurrence: 9/30/2022

STRUCTURE:BODY
Potential Consequences:
When the vehicle is parked and the trunk is opened, some percentage of the time the trunk does not remain in the open position and immediately closes. If the trunk is then opened additional times it generally remains opened. When the trunk unexpectedly closes the trunk object detection does not work and applies a great deal of downforce. When the trunk finally stops trying to close it remains in a locked position between open and close, it does not reopen. Mine and others safety is at risk as the trunk can cause bodily injury resulting from the trunk unintended closing. This issue happens around 50% of the time after the trunk is commanded to open. Two dealerships have been unable to reproduce this issue, but neither has tried multiple times, nor have they driven the vehicle to get the error/bug to reoccur. There are no warning or errors that this issue is going to occur. The only warming occurs three seconds after the trunk fully opens, the trunk closing audible rings. This error has persisted since shortly after first purchasing the vehicle.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
When my IONIQ5 slowly starts and stops while the brake pedal engages or disengages, a noise, something like "click," comes from the rear passenger wheel house. Then, the brakes feel somewhat slippery. I think this has something to do with a transition between the regen brake and the traditional brake. The noise comes up every time I drive. Sometimes, I feel very unsafe because I am worried that the brake system fails.

The contact's father owns a 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact stated that as her father attempted to place the vehicle into reverse(R) while in park(P), the gear shifter failed to operate as needed.

The contact's father was not injured and a police report was not filed. The garage door and pillar were damaged, as well as, the vehicle's driver-side door. The vehicle was initially towed to the dealer where the vehicle was inspected for the failure.

Nearly two months after the repair, the contact stated that while in the vehicle with her father, the vehicle failed to move out of the reverse(R) position after backing out of the driveway. The contact stated the gear shifter eventually moved after multiple attempts and restarts.
