Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Started car and proceeded to drive to work. 1 mile from home, heard a "pop" noise and the car displayed "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning and went into a "turtle" mode that limited speed. Luckily I was on a side street and had not yet made the turn onto the main highway or it may have obstructed traffic or resulted in a crash. I was able to return home and have the car towed back to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair. The dealer identified the issue as the ICCU fuse and ICCU itself that needed replacing. All previous recalls and software updates were completed, including the latest ICCU recall (272?) which was completed on December 3. There have now been multiple software updates and recalls targeting this part, but it still resulted in the vehicle losing power and being inoperable.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Our 8-mo old 9800 mile Ioniq 5 failed to maintain its 12v battery while parked for a week. It was dead when we came back to it. Jump started successfully. I replaced the OEM battery with an AGM battery, which the car failed to maintain charge on after 2 weeks. At that time, while driving, the car displayed "Stop vehicle and check power supply" and "check vehicle electrical system." I had a battery monitor installed which showed the car only had 44% charge left in a new 12v battery. By the time we made it to the dealer 15 minutes away, the car was barely above 20% on its battery, and was about to stop on the road. The car has been diagnosed with an ICCU failure and replacement parts are 2+ months backordered. This car appears to brick itself without much warning to the driver -- and clearly Hyundai's software-only recalls are not fixing the root cause of this dangerous safety issue.

Potential Consequences:
Hyundai has installed faulty 12v batteries in the Ioniq 5 series cars. The OEM battery fails, resulting in an emergency stop or failure to start. Hyundai refuses to acknowledge the faulty batteries, yet the resolution found by numerous consumes to resolve the issue has been to purchase and install the correct 12v battery. Despite going to the dealership to seek a remedy, they refused to replace the faulty battery. They asked for the dead car to be towed into them, but Hyundai roadside assistance is unable to have towed a dead EV. 5 times the car died in the first 6 months of ownership. Hundreds if not thousands of US owners online have reported the faulty 12v issue to Hyundai, received no working repairs, and ultimately replaced their batteries at their cost.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
It is impossible to see through the back window when it rains. It has no wiper--and unlike other cars, it is not aerodynamic and does not push rain off the back windshield. When it rains, you cannot see anything. Due to the location of the backup camera, it also becomes wet and you cannot see anything when doing in reverse through the window or backup camera when it's raining.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Received orange warning “Power limited”. A minute or so later received RED warning “Stop vehicle and check power supply”. Less than a minute later the car stopped and turned off completely, even the HAZARD lights would not flash. Tow truck was unable to tow because the car could not be taken out of park, wheels locked. Also, as soon as the warnings started the power steering failed and the car was very difficult to maneuver. The combination of difficult maneuvering followed by unable to move could be VERY dangerous in the wrong situation.

Potential Consequences:
When driving in i-Pedal, which is a "one pedal driving option", sometimes after pausing the car rolls backs several inches. This appears to be a defect with the powetrain, regenerative braking engine, or otherwise. Hyundai's dealership has been advised of this issue; they have escalated this internally. A car in drive forward should never due to electrical or software reasons be told to move backwards -- which is what is happening here.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I received this car new on 9/2/2024. I was driving at the freeway speed of traffic on 9/5/2024 when there was a sudden alarm and warning lights flashing on the dashboard with a message that said “Stop vehicle and check brake system.” At this same time, the brakes stopped functioning normally, and I had to use extreme pressure with my foot pressing down on the brake pedal all the way to the floor to have the car slow down even marginally. All of this happened with traffic in front, behind, and on both sides of me going 65 mph! I was very luckily able to maneuver to the right lane and slowly decrease speed without getting rear-ended and without slamming into a car in front of me while going at high speed unable to stop. While waiting for a tow, I left the car on, as I slowly edged forward to a safer stopping location. The flashing red ring around the message to “stop vehicle and check brake system” remained, and then just after moving forward, another message with an amber circle around it said “Check ABS system.” This latter message stayed on for only a short time, then was replaced by the initial message. I had the car towed to the dealership, and their assessment was that there was a failure of the IEP module that communicates between aspects of the braking system. The final service report is attached, confirming the need for replacement of the IEP assembly. I was very lucky to come away from this event with nothing more than a very frightening experience. I hope that this report will initiate a recall to prevent a similar situation happening to someone else, and hopefully avoid tragedy involving serious injury or death.
Corrective Action:
I received this car new on 9/2/2024. I was driving at the freeway speed of traffic on 9/5/2024 when there was a sudden alarm and warning lights flashing on the dashboard with a message that said “Stop vehicle and check brake system.” At this same time, the brakes stopped functioning normally, and I had to use extreme pressure with my foot pressing down on the brake pedal all the way to the floor to have the car slow down even marginally. All of this happened with traffic in front, behind, and on both sides of me going 65 mph! I was very luckily able to maneuver to the right lane and slowly decrease speed without getting rear-ended and without slamming into a car in front of me while going at high speed unable to stop.

Defect Description:
LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
Potential Consequences:
When on a highway with lane-keeping assist engaged, the car sometimes steers into the left-hand lane. It seems to happen most often when the road bends to the right. The car straddles the lane divider into the fast lane to the left. This occurs in otherwise perfect conditions: sunny, dry days on roads with clear white stripes demarking the lanes. I must fight with it to get it back in the proper lane. This is very dangerous. I'm convinced it will cause a high-speed crash. Another driver I spoke with said she had seen the same problem and wouldn't use the lane guidance because of it. I'm extremely cautious when I use it now. The problem has happened multiple times.
