Defect Description:

LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST

Potential Consequences:

The Forward Attention Warning system in the refreshed 2025 Ioniq 5 gives constant false positives for both my wife and myself when we are driving the car. With Hyundai's HDA and lane keep active, the system keeps chiming, claiming that the driver is not looking at the road when we are. In fact, the calibration is so poor that it is a safety issue. The constant random warnings are very distracting, and sometimes the system does not recapture your eyes before timing out and hard braking the car on the highway. This is really unacceptable and a safety issue that I'm surprised Hyundai thought it could release. Lots of evidence of other owners with this problem on the Internet: [XXX] [XXX] and many others.

Defect Description:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

These cars still have problems keeping the 12v charged. Car was leased on Jan 19. 12v first died on Feb 15, took it to dealer where they trickle charged it. 12v died again on Feb 18, dealer replaced the 12v. The 12v died again on Mar 11 and is still at dealer service center. Case with Hyundai corporate was opened and the dealer is going back and forth with them. When car is left alone for 5 days, the 12v appears as needing a replacement, so there is something wrong with the system that keeps the 12v charged or there is some parasitic drain somewhere that is hard for the Hyundai engineers to diagnose.
