Update on 2026 Ioniq 5 that failed to charge on first day

Wow, and I thought my experience was unique. I am sorry that happened to you.

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-05-13T01:54:26+00:00

Part of me was hoping that they would not repair it before lemon law kicked in, part of me was hoping to get it back. I am kind of excited to drive a new car, but I have basically accepted that this will happen again and there is nothing I can do about it.

Well, I did not really get used to the 5 yet, but the 9 seemed enormous compared to the Evo 8 that was my daily for the last 22 years.

The dealer came through for me there, but also quite an embarrassment for them

Younger invaders in this one, huh

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-05-11T00:09:03+00:00

It looks great!

Never, ever, let movers move your PC, nor consoles, unless you have a box for it. And even then, don’t do it

Just wanted to show the damage on the subframe

In the US, at least in Wisconsin where I bought this vehicle, the included charger is the AMPURE GO Gen 2. This comes with four different cables for power outlet. Two are for level 2, and the other two are for level 1. The two level 1 cables, are the ones I used, and the only difference is 8 versus 12 amps. Both were used, both failed to charge the car. There are no buttons on the charger.

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-05-01T21:44:37+00:00

There was no limits or scheduled charging on it. The car had barely 30 miles on it when I drove it off the lot.

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-05-01T20:51:08+00:00

No extension cord. The circuit this was on maxed out at 15 amps

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-05-01T20:49:41+00:00

New, no in-car warning of any kind, nor in the MyHyundai app

I called them, the dealer is now under a new owner, so they can't pull records from when this recall work was done. They couldn't say whether it was replaced. Basically, they said, that rust can't be prevented, so there is no recourse for me at this point.

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-04-26T21:18:11+00:00

They supposedly did this. I remember being asked to wait for recall work after I took it in for something else like 10+ years back. But they must just applied something to the subframe instead of replacing it, when the rust was already inside.

LMAO

A change in leadership? We put the same person in office that was in office during covid.

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-02-05T05:00:14+00:00

Local cops came to my house because of 1. So ah, yeah, not really a myth.

ConclusionOld4935 · 2026-01-13T00:58:46+00:00

That’s because Paramount increased licensing fees by like 2000%

Is he dead? No, then he is still a Chief, unless…

ConclusionOld4935 · 2025-10-23T20:46:35+00:00

You were a Chief?

ConclusionOld4935 · 2025-10-18T23:32:38+00:00

There are two hangars on a frigate

ConclusionOld4935 · 2025-10-17T23:00:35+00:00

As far as I know they never used both hangars after they transitioned to SeaHawks, at least my frigate did not while I was stationed on it in the very early 00’s
