What owners report most

Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component

Service brakes

15 reports
“The Auto Hold and EPB orange warning lights have been a recurring problem with our 2022 Hyundai Ioniq. We first noticed the car exhibit a jerky/jolting hesitation after accelerating from a complete stop which was reported to the dealership with confirmed paperwork at ~52K miles. The Auto Hold and EPB orange warning lights have been documented via photographs and video on been active at mileage ~58K and 72K, but the dealership could not reproduce (or scan the codes?) the warning light signature or jerking motion. Additionally, the car indicated that is was trying to either activate or deactivate the Auto Hold function even when the car was in motion and is never turned utilized by any driver of the vehicle. Even though this problem was described as hazardous and may cause the brakes to lock leading to an accident. Finally at ~88K miles the dealership was capable of properly diagnosing the problem and replaced the left rear caliper with CPB motor.”
