Following a 12V auxiliary battery replacement at Dick's Hillsboro Hyundai [XXX] , April 3, 2026), the battery hold-down bracket was left completely unsecured. The retaining bolts were absent, (later found loose in the cargo tray area). The battery terminal cover was also improperly secured. I returned to the dealership within twenty minutes of collecting my vehicle and described the condition directly to Service Manager Robin Farr, who assured me it would be corrected. It was not. On April 6, 2026, Withnell Hyundai in Salem, OR (RO# XXX/X) identified the bracket as completely unsecured with me present, documenting: "found the 12V bracket loose on arrival" and "found that battery hold down was not secured with customer present...bolts were located in cargo tray area." I had driven approximately 50 miles with this condition unknown to me. On a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq PHEV, the 12V battery is located in the boot adjacent to high-voltage traction battery components and wiring. A loose metal bracket free to move during driving presents a genuine risk of electrical arc and fire in an enclosed space: potentially while the vehicle is in motion. Dick's acknowledged the failure in writing and refunded the charges associated with this work. The condition has been corrected by Withnell Hyundai. I am filing this report to create a federal record of a safety-critical installation failure at a certified Hyundai dealership. I contacted Hyundai Motor America (Case #XXX) regarding this matter. Their representative was unable to describe any oversight mechanism ensuring safe repairs at certified Hyundai dealerships.

The 12v system in my vehicle is defective, resulting in the vehicle failing to operate. Since I have only operated it about 4 times, i am unable to state whether the issue would occur while the car was being driven. I have had the car checked by the dealer twice, and it is now at the service department with an unknown date for "repair". The diagnosis from the second dealer service department directly conflicts with what the first dealer service department said. Additionally, I have discovered that this is a known issue with this vehicle model, and Hyundai has failed to address it. I have filed a formal complaint with Hyundai, as the vehicle is still under manufacturers warranty. Incidentally, there is a newly issued recall that I suspect is related to the 12v system, as well.

NHTSA #11445574

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Braking and acceleration control, yes How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The car continued to move/accelerate after depressing the brake pedal, and upon applying additional force continued to move forward, this could lead to a situation where a diver is unable to stop their car when they need to. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? The vehicle was inspected by a Hyundai service center on 10/09/2025 (For a similar concern and related damage) and the event occurred on 10/12/2025 Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There was no warning lights, symptoms (other than the prior occurrence of this issue). The issue was first noticed on 10/3/2025 when the vehicle accelerated while the driver was depressing the brake and damaged the undercarraige.

NHTSA #11693129

While attempting to park and depressing the brake the car made a sudden acceleration without input and hard braking did not slow the car. The car then impacted the curb. On another occasion while stopped at a red light the car began to move forward while the break was depressed. Pressing the break with additional force did not stop the vehicle and it continued to roll forward.

1. Component/System Failure: The airbag system failed to deploy during a collision. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2. Safety Risk: On August 5th, while driving on the highway, my vehicle was involved in head collision. Despite the severity of the impact, the airbags did not deploy. This malfunction exposed me to significant physical danger, as I was left unprotected during the crash. 3. Problem Confirmation: No,I was not aware of the malfunction of the airbags system. 4. Inspection Status: Not yet, I contacted Hyundai America to investigate the malfunction of the airbags the insurance company did their assessment; they determined the car to be a total loss due to the extent of the damage and the car is available for inspection. 5. Warning Signs: There were no warning lamps, error messages, or other symptoms indicating a malfunction in the airbag system prior to the accident. The system appeared to be functioning normally until the moment of failure.

I am not sure who to report this to, but NHTSA and Hyundai corporate office both report the car as having no recalls. The local dealership says it has 3, 2 for computer errors (my car currently has a computer error). When I asked the main Hyundai support people about this, they stated local dealership and the corporate office have different systems. I can concerned Hyundai is hiding recalls from the public by keeping them on a separate system at dealerships and not on the main website or NHTSA.

RECALL WORK WAS PERFORMED TO FIX ANY POSSIBLE OVERHEATING ISSUES. A MONTH LATER I NOTICE ME HEATER NOT WORKING AND THEN IT STARTS OVER HEATING AND SMOKING FROM THE BACK, I TAKE IT IN AND THEY CLAIM THAT IT'S JUST A BUBBLE IN THE RADIATOR. ON 04/21/2020 ABOUT A MONTH LATER WITHOUT ANY WARNING LIGHTS PRIOR IT FLASHES THAT MY ENGINE IS OVERHEATED AND LARGE CLOUDS OF WHITE SMOKE STARTS COMING OUT OF MY EXHAUST PIPE. HYUNDAI SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT BECAUSE OF A FAULTY SWITCH COOLANT LEAKED INTO MY ENGINE AND THE ENGINE IS NOW RUINED AND NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED.

Engine Code: P090A01 The Hyundai IONIQ Blue lost reverse and while driving I experienced loss of power only to regain then lose then regain (a bucking motion). The drive significantly declined. Fortunately, I was able to get back home without injury. Vehicle towed to dealership where it currently sits.

Supplemental to my complaint filed April 18, 2026 regarding Dick's Hillsboro Hyundai (dealer code OR035). The dealership's Service Manager (Robin Farr) provided me with an HMA training report from Hyundai's internal system. Every staff member is listed at "Certified": the baseline tier. No one is above this level. No EV/HEV-specific certification is indicated for any individual. Despite this, the dealership confirmed by phone they could service a 2019 Ioniq PHEV, then performed ICCU/DC-DC converter diagnostics (a hybrid electrical system procedure) and a 12V battery installation in the boot area adjacent to high-voltage components. The vehicle was returned with the hold-down bracket unsecured and retaining bolts missing which was only discovered when my car was assessed by a second Hyundai dealership after I had driven a significant distance. Hyundai's own shop manuals state: "Never allow technician to work on high voltage systems who are not wearing personal protective equipment." Hyundai TSBs for hybrid repairs require insulating gloves rated at 1000V AC/1500V DC. HMA's CPO form (HMACPO0601) requires an "EV/HEV Inspection certified technician" for hybrid-specific work. The ASE xEV Safety Standards state employers "SHALL verify" technician ability to work on HV systems. The dealership's website also claims its service department includes "Master technicians." The HMA training report shows no staff at that level. The Ioniq PHEV boot area contains HV wiring (DC 240V-360V). A loose metal bracket contacting terminals or HV wiring could cause a short circuit, arc, or fire — the type of hazard EV/HEV training exists to prevent.

The system lost its ability to audibly warn me of various conditions that were a risk to everybody in the car. Examples of alerts we could not here were: blind spot collision warning, cross traffic while backing up, driver attention alert when hands are not on the steering wheel, and audible blinker sounds. After the loss of the audible alerts, I nearly collided with vehicles that were in my blind spot because the alert was no longer present.

The instrument cluster (digital speed display) on my 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid Limited has repeatedly turned off while driving. This issue happens randomly, especially in warm weather or after the car has been sitting in the sun. Sometimes the cluster reboots (I hear the start-up chime, the display shows the headlight icon, etc.), other times it remains blank for several minutes. This affects the ability to see speed, gear, and warning indicators, posing a serious safety risk. I’ve had to pull over multiple times because I couldn’t see how fast I was driving. Turning the car off and on sometimes resets it, but the issue returns. I am not the only one experiencing this. Other Hyundai owners across multiple models and years have documented the same or similar problems, including: 2024–2025 Hyundai Santa Fe (cluster and HUD flicker, total blackout) 2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Limited (cluster goes blank within 3 days of ownership) 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz (cluster resets while driving) Hyundai Ioniq 5 (cluster flickers, reboots mid-drive, sometimes blanks) 2022–2023 Hyundai Palisade (recall #217 for illegible or blank cluster) These reports appear across NHTSA, Reddit, IoniqForum, TucsonForum, and Hyundai Santa Fe and Genesis forums. Some owners had to replace their entire cluster or HUD; others received full vehicle replacements after failed repairs. Hyundai should investigate this as a pattern defect in digital instrument clusters across multiple product lines. I am submitting this to protect future drivers and urge NHTSA to act.

While driving the transmission started driving rough and the car was stuck in ev mode. Wouldnt even go back to hybrid mode. I kept driving until all my battery range was exhausted and lost acceleration and had to pull over the side of the highway. It was late at night so there was no one around or behind me, otherwise I would have been hit. Once stopped the car would not move at all so I called a tow to get me off the highway. I was away from home and had to tow it 120 miles back to the local dealer. The engine clutch actuator failed and ruined my transmission and left me stranded in the middle of the night!

NHTSA #11677139

What component of system failed or malfunctioned? Sudden deceleration, not sure what system this is a part of. Is it available for inspection upon request? No, I don't know what is causing the problem so have not been able to have the specific system looked at. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I have been driving on the highway and experienced sudden deceleration of the vehicle multiple times over the past four years. Not being able to control deceleration puts me and the people around me at risk for collision. I am also at risk of being stranded far from home where assistance may not be readily available. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, policy, insurance representative or others? Yes, by four separate dealerships. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Check engine light came on shortly after deceleration, battery power could then be seen at a critical low.

This car, along with several other models of Kia and Hyundai, are unsafe due to the ease with which they can be stolen. Hyundai/Kia must recall all of their vehicles that lock proper anti-theft mechanisms in the ignition, steering column, and drive train. Until this is done, all American auto dealers and insurance companies must refuse to sell and insure any new Hyundais and Kias.

NHTSA #11522137

Many times, when I back out of my driveway into the intersection in front of my house the vehicle hesitates for several seconds when shifted from Reverse to Drive. I am in a situation where I cannot accelerate if needed out of the intersection. This is a safety issue in my opinion. The dealer was not able to replicate the problem, even though it happens frequently and has not provided a solution. One time, on a long road trip, while climbing a grade the vehicle could not achieve normal highway speeds (could only get to 20-30 mph). Big rigs were right behind the vehicle and were not happy having to slow down. Again creating a big safety hazard.

NHTSA #11578030

The contact owns a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving 72 MPH with the cruise control activated, the cruise control button became stuck, causing the vehicle to accelerate unintendedly. During the failure, the cruise control could not be disengaged using the cruise control button or while depressing the brake pedal. The contact stated that the vehicle would decelerate while depressing the brake pedal; however, after releasing the brake pedal, the vehicle would independently accelerate. The contact was able to stop the vehicle and turn off the vehicle to disengage the cruise control. The following day the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 69,000.

NHTSA #11517090

My 2019 hyndai ioniq electrical system stopped working and results in the front door claiming that is not open. An internet search showed that this is common many hyundais and in particular the ioniq. The issue with this is 1) there is no way to know how bad this electrical issue, 2) since the door may or may not be open, the risk of the door opening while driving is present, and 3) all other notifications on my dash are no longer usable; i have no way of knowing fuel left, mpg, or any other safety warnings on the dash. Finally, the issue creates a constant beep that does not stop. This is a safety issue seeing as it is so loud, it makes being aware of the sounds around us nearly impossible to hear.

NHTSA #11512872

The contact owns a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq. The contact stated that while attempting to park into her son's parking pad, the vehicle independently accelerated reverse while in the reverse(R) position. The vehicle initially hit a gutter on the side of the house; as the vehicle continued to accelerate, the contact forcefully depressed the brake pedal but to no avail. The vehicle continued to accelerate in reverse as it hit a porch column which swung the vehicle around and off the parking pad. The vehicle then hit a tree as she stood up on the brake pedal which finally stopped the acceleration. The contact immediately placed the vehicle into park and exited the vehicle. Once the acceleration stopped, her son parked the vehicle and informed her that several warning lights and warning chimes had sounded as he parked the vehicle. The contact sustained minor soreness and emotional trauma as a result of the failure but did not seek medical attention. A police report was not filed and the vehicle had yet to be towed. Her son's porch column and downspout gutter were damaged as a result of the failure. The manufacturer was notified about the failure and informed her that there were no recalls on her vehicle. The vehicle had yet to be diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 33,500.

One morning, my father turned on the car. It was still in Park. He and my mom heard a noise, as if my dad was pushing on the gas pedal, but he was not. They turned off the car, turned it on again, and everything seemed fine. After driving for a bit, my father was back home and parking the car. Because of the way the parking lot is, you have to go slowly, less than 10 miles an hour, pushing on the gas a little to go up and incline and then turn right to slide into the parking spot as you break to finally park. As he was pulling into the parking spot, the car suddenly accelerated uncontrollably, and crashed hard into the building ahead. It broke pieces of the building, and the entire front of the car is totaled. My parents saw fire under the hood and my mom suffered a hand injury. They are otherwise unharmed. I know Unintended Sudden Acceleration was an issue with Ioniq EVs from 2019. It looks like it is happening to the hybrids as well. Thank you for looking into it.

In the middle lane of a multiple lane highway, it suddenly gave a very confusing warning on the dashboard. It lost power and slowed down quickly to below 40 mph. It didn't help to press down the gas pedal. I was forced to switch from the middle lane to the passing lane in order to reach the shoulder. The car was side swept by another car in the passing lane because it was at low speed. Once it reached on the shoulder it stopped completely. If it gave a clear warning, for example, "pull out immediately!", and flashed the emergency light automatically, it might save a few seconds, and gave a warning to cars behind. It's a PHEV, and I believe that it used up the battery for driving but failed to automatically start the gas engine.

While my wife and I were driving on the interstate, all dashboard warning lights came on at once, and the car began rumbling at regular intervals as it tried and failed to switch from electric vehicle (EV) mode to hybrid EV (HEV) mode, and the engine wouldn't start. At the same time, the power steering stopped working, the car struggled to go more than 40 MPH, and it started accelerating on its own and would not stop until I hit the brake. Each time the engine tried and failed to start, the car started accelerating again. I pulled off at a gas station, turned the car off, and called for a tow. I tried to turn it on again but got a "Check Hybrid System" message and could not start the car, so I had it towed to a dealer. They diagnosed it as a dead 12-volt battery; however, they had none in stock and would be unable to get one for 2 weeks, so they charged the 12v and told us we should be able to get home. It happened again a few hundred miles later, and the situation repeated itself. This 2nd dealer also diagnosed that the issue was the 12v but couldn't get one in for at least a week. We rented a car, drove home, and when the dealer replaced the battery, they shipped it up to us. A week later, the car's big battery (not the 12v) was failing to charge, so we brought it to another dealer. They claimed they had no trouble charging it and returned the car. Shortly after that, it died again, in the same fashion described above. We took it back to the dealer, and they had it for over a month, claiming they could not replicate the problem. They returned the car, having diagnosed no problem, so I drove around the dealer and replicated issue myself. It took 15 minutes for the check engine light to come on. I brought it back to the dealer. When they got in the car, the power steering was dead, and the car could barely move. They've now acknowledged that the problem exists and are trying to diagnose it for a 4th time (5th if you count when I was unable to get it to charge).

07/13/19 Car experienced uncontrolled breaking while traveling at 70 mph on President George Bush Tollway, Texas. All dashboard lights came on and only went off when car turned off then on. 09/26/21 Car experienced uncontrolled breaking while traveling at 70 mph on I-75 in Georgia. All dashboard lights came on and only went off when car turned off then on. 11/13/21 Car experienced uncontrolled breaking while traveling at 70 mph on I-35 in Texas. All dashboard lights came on and only went off when car turned off then on.

When ABS engages briefly on a wet surface, there is an incomplete transition from regenerative braking to friction brakes, resulting in a hard pedal that does not actually engage the brakes. This is very dangerous and I have experienced this loss of braking force multiple times when stopping in the rain and a tire is on a slippery manhole cover or crosswalk line. Braking force is reduced significantly for a second or two until the friction brakes are engaged. If the vehicle is rolling in Neutral, the friction brakes work as designed with no delay. It is only during normal driving when the regenerative braking is involved that this issue can be replicated.

THIS IS A FOLLOW UP TO COMPLAINT NUMBER 1# 1360258 SUBMITTED IN SEPT. IN PARTICULAR, I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE DEALERS REPLACE A WATER PUMP AND RELATED ASSEMBLIES FOR A TOTAL OF 3 REPLACEMENTS SINCE AUG. THIS WAS THEIR EFFORT TO DEAL WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUES THAT HAVE RESULTED CONTINUED INCIDENTS OF ERRATIC AND UNCONTROLLED APPLICATION OF THE REGENERATIVE BREAKING (NOT BY DRIVER), SHUTTING OFF OF ANY ABILITY TO ACCELERATE THE CAR WHILE DRIVING, AND COMPLETE SHUTOFFS OF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS, I.E. ALL LIGHTS OFF, NO RESPONSE FROM INSTRUMENTS EXCEPT FOR BREAKING TO A STOP. I REALIZE YOU MAY BE SHORT HANDED DEALING WITH COMPLAINTS, BUT I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY CONTACT SINCE FIRST REPORTING THIS AND WAS WONDERING IF I SHOULD EXPECT ANY? OR IS THIS ONLY ONCE YOU HAVE SO MANY RELATED COMPLAINTS TO INVESTIGATE? OR PERHAPS YOU NEED SOME MORE VERIFIABLE DOCUMENTATION OF THE EVENTS? THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

APPARENTLY, A FRONT-END COLLISION OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED IN A PARKING LOT RESULTING IN $1232 IN DAMAGE TO BODY PARTS, ANTI-COLLISION RADAR, AND ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL. ASTONISHINGLY, THE BUMPER AND EVEN THE FRONT LICENSE PLATE SUSTAINED ALMOST NO VISIBLE DAMAGE WHATSOEVER. SEE PHOTOS ATTACHED. THE COLLISION MUST HAVE HAPPENED AT EXTREMELY LOW SPEED AND IT IS OBVIOUS THE FRONT BUMPER DID NOTHING TO PROTECT THE REST OF THE CAR--ITS PRIMARY INTENDED FUNCTION. THIS WOULD BE THE EQUIVALENT OF A HOUSE BURNING DOWN TO PROTECT THE FUSE BOX. I CHECKED YOUR WEBSITE AND NOTE THAT THE HYUNDAI IONIQ IS AS YET NOT RATED. I SUSPECT THERE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR A CAR TO SUSTAIN SUCH DAMAGE IN A PARKING LOT WITH ALMOST NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO ITS PRIMARY PROTECTION MECHANISM: THE BUMPER. PLEASE NOTE THAT ITEMS DAMAGED WERE ALL IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE BUMPER--A VERY DANGEROUS PLACE FOR THEM TO BE.

NHTSA #11362905

I HAVE HAD 4 INCIDENTS SO FAR OVER THE LAST MONTH, ALL LASTING UNDER 5 SECONDS. IN EACH CASE, THE REGENERATIVE BRAKING SWITCHES TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL WITHOUT ANY INPUT FROM THE USER. THIS PRESENTS AS WHAT FEELS LIKE A LEVEL 3 (STRONG) BRAKING WHEN NONE WAS ON AND NO FOOT IS NEAR THE BRAKE, OR IF THE REGEN BRAKING WAS TURNED ON (IN ONE CASE TO LEVEL 1), IT SHUTS OFF MOMENTARILY. DURING THESE INCIDENTS, THE BEHAVIOR IS ALSO IRREGULARLY CHANGING BETWEEN FOR EXAMPLE HARD BREAKING (LEVEL 3) FOR A SECOND AND THEN FLUTTERING IRREGULARLY BETWEEN HARD AND LOW LEVELS. IN ONE INCIDENT, THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF (AND STAYED IN NEUTRAL) AFTER AN INCIDENT HAPPENED WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE CAR THEN GLIDED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AS NORMAL. IN EACH CASE, THE INCIDENT OCCURS WHILE IN MOTION, NOT TOUCHING THE BRAKE PEDAL BUT MAY BE CURRENTLY SET ON DIFFERENT LEVELS OF REGEN BRAKING (IT'S HAPPENED BOTH IN LEVEL 0 (NONE) AND 1 (LOW). THE BEHAVIOUR IS NOT HOWEVER TRIGGER BY MANALLY CHANGING THE REGEN LEVEL BUT SEEMS TO JUST SPONTANEOUSLY HAPPEN WHILE SMOOTH DRIVING. MOST CASES OCCURRED ON CITY STREETS BUT ONE OCCURRED ON A SMOOTH HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 60MPH. NONE OF THE INCIDENTS HAVE CREATED AN ACCIDENT AS I WAS NOT VERY CLOSE TO ANY CAR IN ANY CASE. I DO HAVE TWO INVOICES FROM SEPARATE CAR DEALERS LOOKING AT THE PROBLEM. IN THE FIRST CASE, THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY ERROR CODES BUT THEY FOUND THE WATER PUMP WAS LEAKING AND REPLACED THAT (PER A TSB). FOLLOWING ANOTHER INCIDENT I TOOK IT TO A SECOND DEALER WHO ALSO DID NOT SEE AN ERROR CODE NOR COULD FIND A PROBLEM. THIS, EVEN AFTER THE "EV" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON FOR A FULL DRIVE TWO DAYS PREVIOUS.

FOR THE SECOND COLD MORNING THIS YEAR MY IONIQ STALLED. I WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. TEMPERATURE WAS -3F, I PRESS THE POWER BUTTON, CAR TRIED TO START AND STALLED THREE TIMES IN A ROW THEN GOT A CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING MESSAGE. I TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND IT STARTED TO STALL, I DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO KEEP A HIGH IDLE FOR A MINUTE. THE CAR RAN NORMAL DURING MY 7 MILE COMMUTE AFTER INCREASING THE I.
