Hyundai recalls 421,000 cars over premature braking software glitch

Hyundai is recalling more than 421,000 2024–2026 vehicles (including 2025–2026 Santa Cruz and Tucson in both gas and hybrid forms) after the NHTSA found a software glitch that can cause the forward-c collision-avoidance system to brake unexpectedly; 376 reports of unexpected braking were logged between Oct 2024 and Apr 2026. Owners will be notified by July 17 and can check the recall status by VIN or license plate in the NHTSA database; Hyundai dealers will install a software update. The recall also covers related Hyundai models such as Elantra Hybrid (2024–2026), Ioniq 5 (2025), and Ioniq 9 (2026).

Hyundai’s 900-Vehicle Test Pushes Mexico’s Tehuantepec Corridor as a Panama Canal Alternative

Hyundai and Hyundai Glovis demonstrated the Interoceanic Corridor of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec by moving 900 vehicles from South Korea to Brunswick, Georgia in about 72 hours: rail from Salina Cruz to Coatzacoalcos (Line Z) followed by a second ocean leg, illustrating a fast, multi-modal route that could reduce reliance on the Panama Canal amid climate-driven water constraints. The corridor—with Lines Z, FA, and K—is expanding, but full capacity isn’t expected until mid-2026, and the project faces Indigenous land-use concerns and a safety incident in 2025.

Hyundai Pauses 2026 Palisade Sales as Seat-Crush Risk Triggers Recall

Hyundai halted sales of the 2026 Palisade Limited and Calligraphy after a fatal Ohio incident and is finalizing a recall for about 68,500 units due to power-folding second- and third-row seats that may not detect contact, potentially crushing occupants. An interim over-the-air software update to improve contact detection will be deployed by the end of March; a formal recall and dealer repairs will follow at no cost, with rental cars offered until a full fix is available. The NHTSA is involved.

Hyundai pulls Ioniq 6 from US lineup, sparking used-EV excitement

Hyundai is discontinuing the Ioniq 6 in the US for 2026, keeping only the high‑performance Ioniq 6 N; tariff costs and the removal of the $7,500 EV tax credit helped drive weak sales. The car’s distinctive design and strong range could make it a compelling used EV, with the Ioniq ​​6 N still expected around $70k and many new units remaining on dealer lots.

Hyundai Drops Regular Ioniq 6 in U.S.; Only Ioniq 6 N Survives

Hyundai will discontinue the regular Ioniq 6 in the U.S. for 2026 and will only offer the high-performance Ioniq 6 N, which is set to arrive later in 2026 with 641 hp (601 hp standard) and enhanced performance, as weak sales and tariff considerations weighed on the model's future; 2025 Ioniq 6 sedans remain at dealers for now, and the car features 800-volt charging with fast 350 kW charging capability.

ICCU Flaws Put Hyundai, Kia, Genesis EVs at Risk of Power Loss, CR Finds

ICCU Flaws Put Hyundai, Kia, Genesis EVs at Risk of Power Loss, CR Finds

Consumer Reports warns that Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis electric vehicles can experience ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failures that compromise the 12-volt system and cause power loss or inoperable features, even with adequate main-battery charge. CR surveyed about 380,000 owners; ICCU-related issues affected roughly 2–10% of Hyundai/Kia EV owners, far higher than typical charging problems. The fault stems from a transistor in the ICCU failing due to overvoltage at the start or end of charging. Repairs vary from software updates to replacing the ICCU and fuse plus a coolant flush, with some costs reimbursed. Hyundai says parts are shipping and some expenses will be reimbursed; Kia has parts in stock; Genesis did not comment. The Ioniq 5 performed relatively well in CR’s testing, but ICCU reliability drags overall scores and recalls have occurred in the past.

Hyundai forfeits Russian buyback rights as auto exodus continues

Hyundai forfeits Russian buyback rights as auto exodus continues

Hyundai Motor Group did not exercise its option to repurchase its former factory in St. Petersburg by the January deadline, making it the second foreign carmaker to lose the buyback right as sanctions and the war in Ukraine continue to reshape Russia’s auto market. Hyundai and Kia suspended operations in 2022; Hyundai sold the plant to AGR Automotive Group in 2024 for 140,000 won and its vehicles have since been marketed under the Solaris brand, while Hyundai says it will still provide warranty and after-sales support for vehicles already sold. Mazda was the first to lose buyback rights in November 2025, and other brands such as Renault, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and Toyota have exited Russia, leaving Chinese automakers to fill the gap.
