6 recalls covering model years 2023, 2024, 2025. 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.
On certain Hyundai Ioniq 6, Santa Fe, Santa Fe Hybrid and Genesis G90 vehicles, the anchor that holds the driver's or front passenger's seat belt to the car can come loose and detach. If that happens, the seat belt cannot hold the person in place during a crash, so it will not protect them the way it should. Dealers will inspect the anchors and either reinforce or replace them at no charge.
On these electric IONIQ 6 cars, the small door that covers the charging port can come off the car. If it detaches while you are driving, it becomes debris in the road that another driver could hit or swerve to avoid, which can cause a crash. The fix is simple and quick: the dealer applies adhesive to the charging port door assembly so the panel stays put, and it costs you nothing.
A unit that keeps the small 12-volt battery topped up can be damaged and stop working. When that battery runs down, the car can lose drive power and stop moving, which could leave you stranded or cause a crash. Dealers will check the unit and its fuse, replace them if needed, and update the software, all free. If your vehicle was already fixed under the earlier 2024 recall, it still needs this new repair.
The bolts holding the gears together in the unit that sends power to the wheels may not have been tightened properly on some 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 6 vehicles. If those bolts work loose, the car can suddenly lose drive power and stop pulling, or the gears can seize and lock up. Either one can happen while you are moving, including at highway speed, and can leave you unable to keep up with traffic or move out of the way.
Your vehicle has a part called the Integrated Charging Control Unit, which keeps the small 12-volt battery charged while you drive. Hyundai found this unit can be damaged and stop charging that battery. If that happens, the car can lose power to the wheels while you are driving. A dealer will check the unit and its fuse, replace them if needed, and update the software. Hyundai later issued a newer fix, so even cars already repaired need to go back.
The shaft that sends power to the rear wheels of these electric vehicles may not have been heat-treated correctly when it was made. A shaft made this way can break while the car is under load, and the car then loses drive power. Losing power in traffic, on a hill, or while merging onto a highway can lead to a crash. Hyundai mailed owner letters on March 29, 2024. A dealer will replace the rear inner driveshaft at no cost.
