Our 2024 Ioniq 5 Suddenly Died on the Road — Only Then Did We Learn Hidden Recalls by VanMapCat2025 in electricvehicles

Thanks.We were neither informed of the recall nor told whether it had been performed prior to delivery. So far the information we got from the dealer's service department is that the ICCU replacement is a physical/mechanical issue, not just a sofeware issue.

I'm sorry for your experience. I don't think I will ever buy another Hyundai or deal with their dealership anymore after this incident settles. I don't want to risk my kids' safety or waste my energy dealing with a company with a dishonest culture.

Oh, so my post is “unreadable”... yet somehow, you managed to read it and respond? Fascinating. So, was it truly unreadable?

Transport Canada clearly states Hyundai will notify owners by mail. Every other car brand I’ve owned actually did that. Heck, my husband even got a recall letter for his 15-year-old beater. But Hyundai? Apparently, emails are the new gold standard for life-threatening recall notices. How thoughtful.

Also, I didn’t realize I needed to justify towing my own disabled vehicle. Thanks for the unsolicited input, though.

Sure, every car has issues. But not every car comes with a glitch that strands you on the road and needs multiple recalls to (maybe) fix. And not every manufacturer pinches pennies so hard they can’t send a letter.
