We took this car in to the dealer to implement the "BMS Battery Logic Improve (26-01-065H)" update on 9/17/26. We have had two issues that appear to be software related and might be caused by improper voltage from the 12 volt battery. The issues are: - Warning messages appeared "Check forward safety system" and "Smart cruise control conditions not metâ. The Smart cruise control stopped working. This is still happening.

This vehicle platform has a documented history of dangerous IEB signal and software a

Additionally, their are some glitches with their software where it disconnected the wireless Apple car play and the back up camera didnât show up sometimes whenever I put into reverse.

The vehicle is available for inspection upon request; it has been previously inspected by authorized Hyundai dealerships. 2. How Safety was Put at Risk: The malfunctioning AC unit poses a significant health and safety risk, particularly due to the presence of a [XXX] infant who frequently rides in the vehicle.
