What's wrong?
The rear suspension fasteners on affected 2025-2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 and Ioniq 5 vehicles secure parts of the rear suspension integration module. That module helps locate and support the rear suspension, so the back wheels stay aligned with the body while the vehicle turns, brakes, and travels over uneven pavement.
On these vehicles, specific rear suspension fasteners were not tightened to the required torque during supplier manufacturing because of operator error. A fastener that starts out loose can loosen further with normal road vibration and suspension movement. If it detaches, the rear suspension loses a critical attachment point, which can affect vehicle control.
Owners can notice suspension noise or vibration from the rear of the vehicle before the fastener problem becomes serious. A new clunk, rattle, or vibration from the rear suspension is the warning sign to take seriously.
Who's affected?
Production dates run from December 10, 2024, through July 23, 2025, across the two included models.

What's the safety risk?
A rear suspension fastener problem can lead to loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. Treat rear suspension noise or vibration as a warning sign and schedule the recall repair once Hyundai opens it. Repair will be free at any franchised Hyundai dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2025-2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 or Ioniq 5 is included in this recall.
- Wait for Hyundai's owner letter, expected July 17, 2026, before scheduling the final dealer repair.
- Contact a franchised Hyundai dealer to ask when the free rear suspension fastener inspection, replacement, and alignment will open.
- Reference recall number 26V314 when you call, and explain that the repair addresses rear suspension fasteners that can loosen and reduce vehicle control.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Avoid hard maneuvers and leave extra following distance.
What happens at the repair
The final dealer repair is still under development. Once Hyundai opens it, a Hyundai technician will inspect the rear suspension fasteners, replace the rear suspension fasteners as needed, and perform a rear vehicle alignment if the inspection calls for it. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Owner letters are expected to be mailed July 17, 2026. Hyundai's general reimbursement plan covers documented out-of-pocket repairs paid before the recall notice. If you already paid for a related rear suspension fastener repair, keep the repair order and payment records for the reimbursement claim.
