2020 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid

The lane departure keep system has a major firmware bug. When the car is moving along a sweeping right hand turn from the farthest left lane, the vehicle senses that the car is going to cross the lane line to the right and jerks the steering wheel back towards dead center. This throws the vehicle towards the left hand curb. The driver must react quickly to jerk the wheel back to the proper position. This takes a reasonable amount of force that not all drivers may possess. Hyundai dealer service technicians are aware of this issue but can only "detune" the system to make it slightly less sensitive.

While on cruise control when climbing a hill, a warning appears telling me that the EV has failed and that I should stop driving the vehicle. At the time the warning appears the cruise control shuts off and the car slow dramatically. All 5 times this has happened the vehicles behind me have had to slam on their brakes in order to avoid running me over. Once it was a triaxle dump truck, fully loaded, he went off the right side of the road and almost hit the guardrails to avoid the collision. The car has been tested at our dealership (Jenkins Hyundai) and they have confirmed the issue.

My horn failed and was replaced in March of 2021. It stopped working again in January of 2022. The dealer replaced the horn the first time and another horn is on order with an unknown date of when the part will be available. This is a safety concern for me. I drive in the country and many deer run in the road. There has also been an incident where a child ran infront of my car while in my home city. Not having a horn poses a risk to me and others. I would not expect a car that is less than 2 years old to have a horn go out twice. I have driven 50 years and have never had a horn break. There was no warning prior to horn failure nor do I know how long the horn was broke.

On June 10, 2021, when driving from Topeka, KS to Park Ridge, IL, there was a failure in both the Adaptive Cruse Control System as well as the Lane Keeping Assistance System. The ACC system started the car moving forward from a complete stop without my intent and the LKA turned the car to the right striking a semi trailer that was completely stopped. Additionally there was no warning from the Forward Collision Warning system

ON 3/27/2020 I PURCHASED A HYUNDAI IONIQ 2020 WHICH ADVERTISED ON THE WINDOW STICKER VEHICLE INCLUDES ADVANCED SAFETY FEATURES BIND SPOT COLLISION AVOIDANCE ASSIST AND REAR CROSS TRAFFIC COLLISION AVOIDANCE ASSIST. UNFORTUNATELY, THE MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED ME ON 8/24/2020 THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT MANUFACTURED AS ADVERTISED. THE FEATURES CAN'T BE ADDED AFTER THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. THE MANUFACTURER OFFERED ME $500 FOR MY INCONVENIENCE WHEN I REQUESTED A VEHICLE BUY-BACK TO REPURCHASE THE LIKE KIND VEHICLE WITH THE INCLUDED SAFETY FEATURES.
