Buying a used 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 5? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2026 Ioniq 5 has 2 recalls in this group: a loose battery bolt fire risk and an instrument display failure entry whose title names the Tucson Hybrid. VIN confirmation is necessary to resolve that display entry's applicability. The 28 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, led by 13 electrical complaints, 5 lane departure complaints, and 4 forward collision avoidance complaints. The record lists 0 crashes, 0 fires, and 0 injuries; electrical and driver assistance behavior remain specific inspection topics.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Request VIN-specific completion records for the loose battery bolt recall.
- Confirm whether the Tucson Hybrid-titled display recall applies to this VIN.
- Ask about electrical faults and lane or collision assistance warnings.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
