What's wrong?
The charging port door outer cover on the 2023-2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6 is the painted panel over the charge-port opening. It moves with the charge door and helps close off the charging area when the vehicle is not plugged in. The outer cover needs to stay attached through repeated opening, closing, and normal road vibration.
In affected vehicles, the retention hooks on the outer panel do not engage deeply enough. Those hooks are the small molded catches that hold the cover to the charge door. When they lose their grip, the charging port door outer cover can loosen and detach from the vehicle. Hyundai's remedy for NHTSA campaign 25V606 adds adhesive to improve the panel's retention.
Owners can notice the charge door outer cover looking loose while the charge door operates. That loose cover is the warning sign to report when contacting a Hyundai dealer.
