Owner report 11463942 · 2022-05-09 (May 9, 2022)
The regenerative brakes had an error go off, which caused the brakes to stop working properly. This error went off twice, once in my driveway upon starting my car, then it reset itself. And again while driving, in which I nearly rear ended the car in front of me due to the brakes not working. Hyundai confirmed the error codes but could not reproduce. Hyundai eventually replaced components of the brakes, but I do not trust that it won't happen again. I wanted out of my lease but they refused and made me drive it again, even though I'm terrified …

Owner report 11466376 · 2022-05-27 (May 27, 2022)
Driving on highway at 68 mph. Set cruise control and it raced speed up to 110 mph on its own. Cancelled cruise and tried to set at similar speed approximate 5 times with same result. Restarted car and gripe has not repeated in over 2,000 miles. Dangerous condition that should not be possible. Appears to be computer/software issue as no physical obstructions were present on cruise controls. I have a video of the incident, but cannot upload currently do to unsupported file type.

The front sensor light is showing it isn’t working and there is a regular reminder that the sensors don't work, but i just had it serviced and the dealership thought the update would correct it, but the alert came on again and the MyHyundai app shows everything is on order, so it doesn’t even connect theres a problem.

Owner report 11509085 · 2023-02-25 (February 25, 2023)
I was in an accident on October 7, 2022. There was almost $5,000 in damage. Repairs were made, but several repairs were left unattended and I am put at risk of safety. The Seat Tracking was out of alignment and could not be verified by mechanic, although it was verified by the body shop. The Forward Collison Warning light comes on intermittently, as do other gauge lights, after the accident.

Owner report 11514514 · 2023-03-29 (March 29, 2023)
On 12/25/21 less than 2 months after purchase, amber color warning lights came on dashboard saying "AUTO HOLD" and "EPB" light up on dash and a chime noise would sound when flashing message lit up. Since warning lights weren't red I understood the feature wasn't working, that it was safe to drive, but the chime was annoying when it came on about once a week. On 8/8/22 I took the car to Selma Hyundai and paid $168 to diagnose the intermittent flashing AUTO HOLD/EPB amber light alerts. They checked functions and said if persisted they would have…

While driving, the adaptive cruise control will randomly become disabled and 3 lights pop on: EPB, Auto Hold, and check engine (triangle with ! In the middle).

Stays off longer when car has an overnight break but other times it will happen as soon as it's turned on. Cruise control will not work when this issue appears.

Owner report 11546636 · 2023-09-26 (September 26, 2023)
Shortly after purchasing my Ioniq (roughly 2 months into ownership) my dashboard started beeping with warning signs for my EPB and auto-hold brake. I panicked and parked my car and tried to turn off the functions because I thought I had accidentally turned them on but they wouldn’t turn off. This would continue at random for roughly 7 more months until it would stay on for weeks at a time. I was told there was nothing the dealership could do about it and was asked about my oil changes. I get my oil changes within the intervals set for the vehic…
