15 recalls covering model years 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
Certain Hyundai Ioniq 5 vehicles have high voltage battery cells that may contain misaligned electrodes inside them. This kind of misalignment inside the battery can lead to a fire, and this can happen whether the vehicle is parked or being driven at the time.
⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).
The fasteners holding the rear suspension on some vehicles may loosen and detach. If this happens, it can result in a loss of vehicle control.
A bolt connecting parts inside the vehicle's high voltage battery system may not be tightened properly. This can lead to an electrical short inside the battery system.
On certain Tucson Hybrid, Tucson Plug-In Hybrid, and several other Hyundai models, a software error can cause the instrument panel display to fail. Because this display is required to function properly under the federal safety standard for vehicle controls and displays, a failure means the vehicle no longer meets that requirement.
On some Hyundai Ioniq 5 vehicles, the seat belt retractors for the driver and front passenger seats may not be securely fastened. A retractor that isn't properly secured may not work the way it's supposed to if the vehicle is in a crash.
Certain bolts that adjust the alignment of the rear suspension on some vehicles may not have been tightened properly.
Hyundai is recalling certain Ioniq 5 vehicles because the high voltage battery system may contain a bus bar that was not tightened properly, which can cause a short-circuit.
⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).
On certain 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 vehicles, the right-side headlight may have an incorrect aim label attached, which can result in the headlight being aimed incorrectly.
Hyundai is recalling certain Ioniq 5 N vehicles that have the left-foot braking and N e-shift features. Software in the electronic brake system and vehicle control unit may cause the brakes to work less effectively whenever left-foot braking is turned on. On top of that, if the N e-shift feature is active, the car may keep accelerating on its own even after the driver takes their foot off the gas pedal, instead of slowing down as expected.
On vehicles with the left-foot braking feature, software in the electronic brake and vehicle control systems may cause weaker braking when that feature is used. This can mean the vehicle needs more distance to stop.
A wiring problem in the rear floor of the vehicle may create a break in the circuit. This can cause the rear side air bag to fail to deploy the way it is supposed to in a crash.
Certain Hyundai Ioniq 5, Ioniq 6, and Genesis GV60 vehicles have an Integrated Charging Control Unit that may become damaged. When this happens, the unit can stop charging the 12-volt battery. If the 12-volt battery is not being charged, the vehicle can lose drive power.
On these Hyundai and Genesis electric vehicles, the Integrated Charging Control Unit may become damaged and stop charging the 12-volt battery. This can result in a loss of drive power.
Certain 2023 Hyundai IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, and Genesis GV60 vehicles have a rear inner driveshaft that may not have been heat-treated correctly during manufacturing. Because of this, the driveshaft can break when it is put under load, such as while accelerating. If the driveshaft breaks, the vehicle loses the power that turns the wheels, meaning it can no longer drive forward under its own power.
Hyundai is recalling certain Ioniq 5 vehicles. A software error in the shifter control unit may cause the parking mechanism to disengage on its own, even after the vehicle has been placed in park. This means the vehicle could start rolling on its own without the driver doing anything, since the parking mechanism that's supposed to hold it in place isn't working correctly.
Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.
