- Problem
- Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 "N" vehicles equipped with left-foot braking (LFB) and N e-shift features. The integrated electronic brake (IEB) and vehicle control unit (VCU) software may cause reduced braking performance when LFB is activated. Additionally, the vehicle may continue to accelerate after the pedal is released and the vehicle's N e-shift feature is engaged.
- Risk
- Reduced braking performance and unexpected, continued acceleration increase the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Owners are advised not to use the LFB or N e-Shift features until the remedy has been performed. The IEB and VCU software will be updated over-the-air (OTA) or by a dealer, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 25, 2025. This recall replaces NHTSA recall number 25V-065. Vehicles repaired under the previous recall will need to have the new remedy completed. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 277.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1- 888-275-9171) or go to www.safercar.gov.
What this recall means for you
Certain 2025 Ioniq 5 N vehicles equipped with left-foot braking and N e-shift may have brake control and vehicle control software that can reduce braking performance when left-foot braking is used. The vehicle may also keep accelerating after the pedal is released when N e-shift is engaged. Both conditions increase the risk of a crash.
Until the repair is done, do not use the left-foot braking or N e-Shift features. The software update will be delivered over the air or performed by a dealer at no cost. Vehicles already repaired under the previous recall, 25V-065, will also need this new remedy.
Check your vehicle's VIN for open recalls and contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460 with Hyundai recall number 277 if you have questions.
