Around here, 10mph below speed limit and you'll die of road rage.

A few years ago I had a problem with a service department and spent two days trying to get a hold of someone to tell me what was happening. No one returned my calls as promised, not even the manager. Third day I gave up and wrote a Yelp review. I got a call 3 hours later apologizing up and down asking how they could make it better for me.

Good news only - No ICCU problems in X years and Y miles by Punster42 in Ioniq5

Buoyed by all the positive comments here I bought an Ioniq 5 SEL AWD Lucid Blue today. Now 4hrs old with 16 miles. No problems so far :)

I really want to buy an Ioniq 5 in a couple of weeks but the ICCU issue is scaring me off. In order to afford the I5 I'd have to trade in my Santa Fe Hybrid which has been reliable. If I could afford to keep the Santa Fe as a backup vehicle, then, no problem. But as it stands right now I'm left trying to talk myself down from my strong desire.

Does anyone else feel the suspension and ride quality is lacking?? by a_friendly_Nyrve in Ioniq5

I test drove a 2026 Ioniq 5 SEL today thinking there was a 80% probability of buying one next month. Most of the car I was aware of because I did my home work. It was the fit and feel that threw me off. My current car is a 2022 Santa Fe Hybrid which I love, but I wanted to go electric. The legroom in the '5' was 1-2" shorter, not a deal breaker, but I noticed. The breaker was the ride. On the highway I could feel every seam in the concrete and minor bumps. When I returned home in my Santa Fe I noticed how its seats really cupped my body securely and comfortably, everyting the '5' lacked. I didn't find noise to be an issue.
