The electric SUV's rear suspension apparently needs some work, as it has a loose rear suspension that can cause accidents.Certain production numbers have been marked, with the report citing that specific production dates from Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America need to undergo the recall service.HyundaiSpecific Production DatesHyundai Ioniq 9s that were produced between March 25, 2025, and July 23, 2025, have been flagged for recall. Meanwhile, Hyundai Ioniq 5s that were produced between December 10, 2024, and July 10, 2025, are also being recalled for the same issue.AdvertisementAdvertisementThese models were all locally produced for the U.S. market at the Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America in Bryan County, Georgia. As per usual, check with Hyundai America's VIN checker to see if your car falls under the recall parameters, then go to your assigned dealer in order to facilitate the recall process.Kristen BrownThe ProblemAs for the production defect itself, the rear suspension of the affected Ioniq 5s and Ioniq 9s "may have been assembled with insufficiently torqued fasteners, which can loosen over time and result in noise or vibration. If the vehicle is continuously operated under this condition without being addressed, the nut and/or bolt may detach from the vehicle over time and potentially reduce vehicle stability or control during operation," the recall report reads.In a nutshell, the Hyundai factory might not have tightened the bolts on certain Ioniq 5s and 9s, which will cause discomfort and possibly a crash. With that being said, the early warning signs include noise coming from the rear of the car while it's running.The problem was first identified through a field report, dated August 1, 2025. From there, investigations were held, durability testing was done, and on May 11, 2026, the recall order was underway. At this time, there are no confirmed fires, crashes, injuries, or fatalities that are linked to this recall, thankfully.HyundaiThis story was originally published by Autoblog on May 23, 2026, where it first appeared in the News section.
