Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Our 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 has been sitting unrepaired for almost five months due to a complete lack of availability of an essential replacement part (front bumper lower molding part number 86569PI000). The car was involved in a minor collision on [XXX], and although no one was hurt and the airbags did not deploy, the vehicle has remained unrepairable and inoperable. The car sensors can not be calibrated without this part, thus affecting all front sensors of the vehicle. Both the Hyundai-certified repair facility and our insurance company have confirmed that the necessary part is on national backorder with no estimated date of arrival, despite extensive efforts to source it — including looking on eBay and through nationwide networks. This was also confirmed by Hyundai Customer Support with whom we opened case [XXX]. The part involved is necessary for proper calibration of front sensors of the vehicle. We are continuing to pay on the lease while the car sits undriveable and depreciating. This has placed a major financial burden on us and raises broader safety concerns. Hyundai is apparently unable or unwilling to supply parts for its current-year models, which may compromise the safe restoration of structurally- or electronically-damaged vehicles. We respectfully request that NHTSA investigate Hyundai’s inability to supply safety-critical parts for its 2025 models, and determine whether this systemic delay poses a risk to consumers and undermines post-collision safety standards. The repair shop is Advanced Collision Repair in Escondido, CA, 760-741-7565. The shop’s manager is John McLure.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
1. The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) and associated high-voltage harness/fuse appear to have failed. According to the dealership, both the ICCU harness and a high-voltage fuse are being replaced. The vehicle is still at the dealer for repairs and can be made available for inspection upon request. 2. While merging onto a freeway on-ramp after charging at a Tesla Supercharger in Barstow, California, the vehicle suddenly stalled, losing all propulsion power. This occurred in live traffic while attempting to accelerate, putting me at significant risk of a collision. I was forced to stop the vehicle on the on-ramp and eventually had to call a tow truck. The situation was hazardous, as there was no shoulder to safely exit the vehicle and other vehicles were traveling at high speeds. 3. Yes. The issue was confirmed by the authorized Hyundai dealership where the vehicle was towed. The dealership stated that the ICCU harness and a high-voltage fuse are being replaced under warranty. However, they have also indicated that the required parts are backordered, and no ETA has been provided. 4. The vehicle has been inspected by a Hyundai dealership technician, and Hyundai Motor America is involved in the case. It has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives. Hyundai Customer Care has acknowledged the issue and is in contact with me, but a resolution has not yet been reached. 5. Yes. Approximately 5 to 10 seconds after finishing DC fast charging at the Barstow Tesla Supercharger, the vehicle displayed a brief warning message related to the charging system. Unfortunately, the warning disappeared quickly before I could take a photo or read it in full. Immediately after, as I attempted to enter the freeway on-ramp, the vehicle stalled.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The high-voltage traction battery on my 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited RWD failed unexpectedly around [XXX], when the vehicle had approximately 1,250 miles on it and was just over 3 months old. The car had been parked in my driveway with about 80% charge while I was away for several days. When I attempted to drive it, the vehicle would not shift out of neutral. No warning lamps or error messages were displayed before the failure. The vehicle was towed to Van Hyundai in Carrollton, TX on April 3. While loading it onto the tow truck, the 12V battery completely died, disabling the electronic parking brake and preventing the vehicle from being safely secured. After an extended wait, a Hyundai field service technician diagnosed the failure as a fault in the traction battery, requiring a complete replacement. I was told the part is currently unavailable and has no estimated arrival time. The issue has been confirmed and documented by the dealer and the field technician. This failure renders the vehicle undriveable and puts both safety and financial reliability at risk. Not only was I unable to move or secure the vehicle, but it has also been out of service for over two months with no resolution in sight. The failed component is currently in possession of the dealership and should be available for inspection upon request.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
With Adaptive Cruise control and Lane Keeping Assist on, no matter how attentive I am, within a couple minutes (give or take) I get Driver Attention warnings. These warnings are distracting and require manual intervention in traffic. I can stop them either by turning cruise control on and off, or by accelerating manually, which can be dangerous and/or inconvenient. I do sit high in the seat, as I have a long back. I wear no glasses. I have normal wide open eyes. I am keeping my hands at 10-2 orientation. I am sitting in a way that gives me clear unobstructed view of the eye tracking camera at all times. I have not had this confirmed. I understand it is a known problem.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
I purchased this car this week. The vehicle is equipped with a safety feature called Forward Attention Warning (FAW). Its purpose is to monitor the drivers attention (eyes??) and trigger an alert when the drivers attention is distracted for a period of time. I took it for the first time on a 150 mile trip. During the trip, the FAW alarm was triggered constantly. I tried changing my head position, taking my glasses on/off, changing my hands holding the wheel, etc. Nothing seemed to matter. It is not only a nuisance, but it causes other automated functions to be disabled. I was able to partially turn it off, but it still caused misfunctioning of other auto driving functions. Its not just a nuisance, its a hazard. If it cant be fixed easily, Hyundai should at least give the operator the ability to completely disable it.

Defect Description:
LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
Potential Consequences:
This car has a system called Forward Attention Warning (FAW) which monitors the driver's eyes using an in-cabin infra-red camera trained on the driver. When smart cruise control and lane following assist are both activated, FAW is forced ON by the car. If FAW thinks that the driver's eyes aren't on the road, it beeps, puts alerts on the panel visible to the driver and turns off all driving assist features. The problem I'm reporting is that the FAW system is completely broken. Even though I'm looking straight forward, it says I'm not paying attention to the road, sounds loud alerts, then eventually shuts off all of my driving assistance features. I wear glasses, and sometimes sunglasses to reduce glare when driving in bright conditions, and I've tried this with my prescription sunglasses, my normal prescription glasses and even without any glasses. The system erroneously triggers in all cases. I believe that the FAW system false positives is a safety issue because: 1. The constant false alerts are very distracting, making the driver look at the panel in front of them to try to figure out what it's saying, taking their eyes off the road 2. Lane following assist is, itself, a safety feature, by disabling it due to these false positives from the FAW system, this is reducing safety in the vehicle 3. The FAW false positives will abruptly disable the smart cruise control, which is controlling the speed of the car, as well as the lane following assist, helping to keep the car in the lane. This abrupt disabling of these systems can cause the car to slow suddenly and depart from the lane if going around a curve. This can be very dangerous.
Corrective Action:
This car has a system called Forward Attention Warning (FAW) which monitors the driver's eyes using an in-cabin infra-red camera trained on the driver. When smart cruise control and lane following assist are both activated, FAW is forced ON by the car. If FAW thinks that the driver's eyes aren't on the road, it beeps, puts alerts on the panel visible to the driver and turns off all driving assist features. The problem I'm reporting is that the FAW system is completely broken. Even though I'm looking straight forward, it says I'm not paying attention to the road, sounds loud alerts, then eventually shuts off all of my driving assistance features. I wear glasses, and sometimes sunglasses to reduce glare when driving in bright conditions, and I've tried this with my prescription sunglasses, my normal prescription glasses and even without any glasses.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
I purchased this vehicle on [XXX] in the state of Colorado and had to drive it home through a winter storm to California. While driving home the vehicle on multiple occasion the vehicle flagged driver assist disabled or inoperable errors due to "radar blocked" stopping and checking the front of the vehicle I found that the car had no snow or ice build up on the exterior of the bumper, and there was no reason that all the driver assist and even safety features like Automatic Emergency Braking had been disabled. In addition while making this drive home, the vehicle passenger side wiper failed catastrophically. Over a 30 day process the local dealer replaced the broken wiper blade motor, and determined there was nothing wrong with the internal Auto assist system, even stating there were no DTC/ or error codes present. I provided them with images of the errors and millage, but nothing further could be done because they could not "replicate the issue" and no codes are being stored. At around 1430 miles I was driving in dry, warmer weather (around 50 degrees) when another error flashed on my screen again. I brought the vehicle back to the dealership for diagnostics, where they have yet to determine the issue again. They've stated no DTC or error codes are present, and they can not reproduce the issue so the vehicle is operating "normally and designed". I have been working with Hyundai Consumer Affairs during this entire time to help speed this process along, they have no answer other than, if the error appears again, do not turn of the vehicle, drop everything your doing in your life and bring it directly to the dealership for diagnostics (even if its active safety features are not working while your driving it).
