Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)My Ioniq5 has experienced a recurring water leak that has repeatedly exposed the left rear seat belt and seat belt retractor to large amounts of water. I noticed recently that after it had rained the left back seat belt was soaked and dripping water when pulled out. After fully pulling out the belt as far as it would go it was clear that the water had fully soaked the belt and retractor. It is unclear when this started or how long this has been occurring, as there was no warning or other indication that there was a leak until the belt happened to be put on soon after it had rained. I am uncertain if this poses an actual risk to the function of the seat belt or seat belt retractor. However, even though it is unknown if the water intrusion limits the seat belt's function, there is a perceived risk that this could corrode or degrade the function of the internal components due to the repeated water exposure. The car was taken to the dealership twice. The first time they claimed they were unable to repeat the issue. However, days later it rained again and the belt and retractor were again soaked. After the second return to the dealership they were able to confirm a leak in the glass roof of the vehicle that was allowing the intrusion to the seat belt and retractor. The car is still currently at the dealer awaiting repair for the water leak with an unknown timeline
The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V797000 (Seat Belts); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not available. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue, and a case was opened. The contact had not experienced a failure.
Ioniq 5 is known to have a loose and possibly dangling wire underneath the driver seat. This wire is often uncovered and unshielded, and is susceptible to becoming damaged due to the automatic seats and adjustments. This wire directly operates the airbag and if damaged loses all functionality. Hyundai is not covering any damage to this wire under warranty, and this poses an immediate threat to anyone driving their vehicle.
