2020 Hyundai Ioniq Electric

"Buy another 2020 Ioniq EV limited or spring for a 2024 Ioniq 5 Limited RWD? I've been mulling over this choice and can't decide, so I'm interested in hearing your thoughts: A few months ago I traded in a 2010 honda CRV with 190,000 miles on it for a 2020 Ioniq EV limited with 14,000 miles. I love it. It had a 210 mile range when fully charged when it was warm out. Now... 81.5Kmreekster replied Feb 1, 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 karen6rd Mar 17, 2025 IONIQ 5 - warranty repairs Hi all, I have a 2023 IONIQ 5 namsan edition. Great car, however I recently had the 12v issue and also warnings come up regarding engine malfunction."

"I haven’t had any issues with mine, same model and upgraded trim and features are terrific. Had it for nearly six months and I couldn’t recommend it enough, Hyundai really seem to have their battery management well sorted."

"IoniqEV excels at 70 miles an hour range test buy InsideEVs As per the subject, good news from InsideEVs about the Ioniq, for anyone looking for a vehicle with super high efficiency even at highway speeds (here: From the article: "We've never had an EV on our highway range tests prove capable of matching, or in this case, exceed its EPA range rating while driving at 70-mph, until now." I've been really happy with my Tesla model 3 (I got one of the good ones, and I've never had to do business with Tesla service), but watching the news about the Ioniq recently, while looking for something my youngest child can take to college this fall. We're shopping now at a lower price point, charging networks have come a long way in the last 2 years (Ioniq uses CCS, right?), and back seat safety ratings are less important in a vehicle that will usually transport only the driver (although, from what I've seen, passengers are better protected in the Ioniq than in the Nissan Leaf, for example). So, Ioniq is looking really good at the moment, though it does have less acceleration than the Leaf, and certainly the Tesla."

I have a '21 model bought last Oct at 80000km or 48000 miles. I've put about 6000km on it over the western Canadian winter getting range when cold of about 160 miles in mixied city /hwy driving. Now warmer and getting about 185-190 miles. Car battery seems bulletproof. I bought used from an EV specific dealership. I do mostly level 1 or 2 charging with vary odd level 3 DC charge."

"Hyundai car quality very poor (Ioniq Hybrid) I’ve been the owner of a Hyundai Ioniq since November 30th, 2019 — my very first car. And honestly, it was a spectacular one. Over the years I’ve had a few minor issues, but nothing that ever made me regret my purchase… until this last year. Conveniently, **right after the 5-year warranty expired**, the car started to literally fall apart piece by piece. In just one year: * most of the **interior chrome trims have peeled off**, * the **front radar glass cracked and broke**, * the **seat belts no longer retract** because the mechanism failed, * the **paint on the alloy wheels is coming off**, * the **car constantly pulls to the right**, and despite all checks, **no one seems to know why**, * the **window seal has crumbled**, * the **side mirrors struggle to open and close** and now **have to be helped by hand**, * and even the **protective coating on the front headlights seems to be peeling off**. All this on a car that’s barely over five years old — a car I once considered a little gem. Honestly, I expected much better **quality and durability** from Hyundai. I was already looking at the new **Santa Fe** or **Ioniq 9** as my next car, but after this experience, I’ll **definitely think twice before choosing Hyundai again**. It’s honestly **disappointing** that a car in this category — one that was supposed to be close to a flagship model — starts showing all these issues just **one year out of warranty**. It’s frustrating, and it really gives the impression that the **build quality just isn’t up to the standards** one would expect. I already wrote to customer care but they said: >We would like to inform you that the official Hyundai warranty is valid for 5 years (60 months) from the date of the vehicle’s first registration. Beyond this period, unfortunately, we are not in a position to carry out any warranty-related interventions. For any issues occurring after the warranty has expired, you will need to contact your trusted mechanic or an authorized Hyundai dealership. In either case, any repair costs will be the responsibility of the driver. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further information or assistance. Kind regards, **Carlo** Very very very disappointed!!!"

"Recall IONIQ EV - Voltage deviation, potential battery replacement Today I got an article from a dutch news source that said there was a recall on IONIQ's stating: "A voltage difference may develop between the individual cells of the high-voltage battery. This can cause a short circuit, which may result in a fire." (Translated from dutch) It also stated: "The vehicle owner is asked to make an appointment with the authorized dealer. The software will be updated to enable the detection of anomalies at an even earlier stage. If an anomaly is detected, the high-voltage battery will be replaced as a precautionary measure." Sources: \- \- \- Australian recall page: Just to inform anyone, not sure this recall is active in other places (it likely is), the producer's reference code for this recall (at least in the Netherlands) was: 61D018 This recall was active on my 38kwh IONIQ Edit: Unrelated to this sub, but it seems that this is also the case for KONA's:"

"Our New Ioniq 5 Died Suddenly -Only Then Did We Learn about Recalls My husband and I purchased a brand-new 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 from OpenRoad Hyundai Richmond Canada on a lease. We traded in a VW golf. In the roughly seven months we’ve had the vehicle, we used it primarily for commuting, school runs of our kids, and occasional leisure trips. We drove very carefully as it was my husband's dream car and the car was never in an accident or had any damage during this time. On **Friday, June 20, 2025**, while my husband was driving, the car suddenly began beeping frantically and showed a “Check electrical system” warning, and told him to pull over. Despite being adequately charged, the car became completely immobilized and stranded him on the road. We had to urgently call the school to inform them of the delayed pickup and scramble to find a friend who could help pick up the kids. Thank goodness the kids were not in the car when it became stranded on the road, as even adults could feel confused and anxious in that situation—let alone young children. After researching online, we found that many Hyundai owners had reported experiencing similar problems. That night, my husband had to call a tow truck to bring the car back home. Even after charging it overnight, the vehicle remained completely dead/non-functional. On **Saturday, June 21, 2025**, we had the vehicle towed to the OpenRoad Hyundai Richmond. Later that day, a representative from the service department called my husband to inform him that our car was subject to **two** recalls. We were genuinely shocked—this was the first time we had heard of any recall affecting our car. We received recall mails when we had other cars, but we never received any recall mail notification from Hyundai. We later found out both recalls were related to the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) issue. At no point during the purchase process did anyone from the sales department inform us of an active recall—Transport Canada Recall #2024-174—issued in March 2024 regarding the ICCU issue affecting the 2024 Ioniq 5 and other Hyundai models. We were also not informed whether the ICCU issue had been addressed or repaired on our specific vehicle prior to the sale. Had we been made aware of any of this information, we would never have agreed to lease the vehicle, as no consumer would knowingly choose a car with a known risk of becoming unpredictably immobilized on the road. Upon further research, we discovered the first recall (Transport Canada #2024-174) was published on **March 15, 2024** on Transport Canada’s website, and the second (Recall #2024-701) on **November 18, 2024**. Both address the same ICCU defect, with the second recall replacing the first as it required to recall more models of Hyundai cars. Both recalls address essentially the same issue, and the second recall specifically states: *"Vehicles that were repaired under \[recall #2024-174\] also require this repair."* We question whether the initial r"

"Never Buy the Hyundai Ioniq 5: My $60,000 Regret I purchased a 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Preferred AWD Long Range in Canada for approximately CAD $60,000, and despite the high price, the vehicle’s interior quality and overall build are disappointingly subpar, with fabric seats instead of leather, no power tailgate, only the driver’s seat being power-adjustable while the front passenger and rear seats are manual, and power windows available only for the driver. In addition, there are numerous rattles from the trunk and suspension, gaps between the seats that increase noise on uneven roads, and even the rear seatbelt produces a spring-like noise. When I reported these issues to both the dealership and Hyundai Canada, I was told that this is normal and that I might be overly sensitive. After only two months of ownership, the dealership suggested I pay for a special technician to diagnose the source of the noises, which was both frustrating and disappointing. Although I had considered both the Tesla Model Y and the Ioniq 5, I chose Hyundai because of the greater availability of local dealerships, but my experience with Hyundai Canada has been profoundly disappointing. When a car has problems and the customer reports them but the dealership fails to address them, it speaks volumes about the brand’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Do yourself a favor and avoid the Ioniq 5, as you will regret it 100%."
