“The ICCU failed after 5,500 miles and the car lost all power. Fortunately it happened in the driveway and otherwise could have been a life-threatening situation. This is a 2025 model that wasn't covered by the recall so it's obvious Hyundai has not solved the problem.”

At a glance
- Next to the 2024
- The 2025 is too new for a fair per-year comparison. It has 297 complaints so far; the 2024, on sale longer, has 222.
- Top problem
- Dead battery leads with 91 of the 297 complaints (31%), ahead of stalling at 44. Dead battery tends to show up early. Of the 26 owners who gave a mileage for it, half were under about 8,000 miles and a quarter under about 4,000.
- Crash, fire and injury reports
- Only 4 of the 297 complaints (1%) report a crash, a fire or an injury, well under the 6% typical of vehicles on this site. Counted separately (one report can carry more than one), 3 reports mention a crash and 2 people were hurt.
- Recalls behind the top problems
- Dead battery and infotainment share a recall on the same system (25V-064, 25V-482 and 26V-068). Stalling has none. A recall on the same system doesn't always cover the failure owners describe, so compare its summary with the complaints.
- When owners filed
- Every complaint so far came in during 2025. So far in 2026, 232 more have come in.
