Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Hyundai is recalling 2 vehicles from the 2024 IONIQ 6 model year because certain differential gear bolts in the gear drive unit may not have been tightened correctly during assembly. This defect can lead to a sudden loss of drive power or cause the vehicle's differential to lock up while in motion. To resolve this issue, Hyundai dealers will replace the entire gear drive unit at no cost to the vehicle owners.

Risk

If the differential gear bolts loosen, the vehicle may lose power to the wheels or the differential could lock up completely, causing the wheels to stop turning suddenly and significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
