  1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm recall 25V605000 applies to your Ioniq 5.
  2. Call a Hyundai dealer and schedule the recall repair. Ask how long the repair takes and whether parts are in stock.
  3. Keep a copy of every repair order. Check that each one lists your complaint, the mileage, and the dates in and out.
  4. Write down when symptoms involving the critical fasteners happen: date, mileage, speed, weather and what you felt or heard. Photos and short videos help.
  5. Count the days the vehicle is at the dealer. Days out of service add up toward California's 30-day presumption.
  6. If the recall repair does not fix it, or the vehicle keeps going back for the same issue, talk to a lemon law attorney.

Here is what some owners told NHTSA, in their own words (excerpts, unverified):

Car has worn down both rear tires to wires and dealer has said alignment is way out and could be suspension issues.

2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 owner, CO, NHTSA complaint 11745529, filed June 22, 2026

While driving on normal paved roads, a small vibration was heard from the rear of the vehicle. A person near the car when leaving the origin that morning heard a minor clicking sound at low speed from the rear of the vehicle.

2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 owner, CO, NHTSA complaint 11757439, filed August 17, 2026

I need to report a serious vehicle safety concern involving a catastrophic front-right tire failure at highway speed. I am requesting a Hyundai case number and preservation of all physical evidence. Please preserve the failed tire, detached tread assembly, bead remnants, wheel, TPMS components and all service records.

Can recall 25V605 make my Ioniq 5 a lemon in California?

Not by itself. A recall repair that fails, or repeat dealer visits for the same defect, can support a California lemon law claim.

Owners often ask whether this critical fasteners recall means their Ioniq 5 qualifies as a lemon. Not by itself. Song-Beverly looks at whether a defect covered by the warranty substantially impairs use, value or safety and was not fixed after a reasonable number of repair attempts (Civ. Code 1793.2(d)).

Suspension, wheel and tire defects can affect handling and control. Clunks, pulling and vibration that return after a repair point to a defect that has not been fixed.

The recall repair is available at dealers. If it works, great. If the same symptom comes back, the recall visit is one repair attempt and the next visit is another.

Civil Code 1793.22(b) sets out a presumption that applies in the first 18 months or 18,000 miles: two or more repair attempts for a defect likely to cause death or serious bodily injury, four or more attempts for the same defect, or more than 30 total days out of service for repairs. Written notice to the manufacturer is required in some cases. Owners outside that window can still have a claim.

An owner who prevails in a lemon law case can recover reasonable attorney fees and costs from the manufacturer (Civ. Code 1794(d)). You pay nothing, win or lose. We are paid only if you win, and the manufacturer pays our fees, including in settlements. If a case is lost, our firm covers the costs.

In our cases, a recall repair visit counts as a repair attempt, and it's strongest when the owner complained about the problem before the recall came out. A recall shows the defect is real and that enough owners reported it for the manufacturer to issue a fix.

The biggest mistake I see is waiting too long. The mileage offset starts at your first repair visit for the problem, so the sooner you take it in, the better. If the problem comes and goes, take it in when it happens. You can't go back to that date later.

If you get a recall notice, call a lemon law attorney right away. You may have taken the car in for the same problem before and forgotten, or there may be other recalls related to it.

Frequently asked questions about recall 25V605

Is the 25V605000 recall repair free?

Yes. Safety recall repairs are done free of charge at authorized dealers.

When will owners be notified?

According to NHTSA, owner notification letters were or are scheduled to be mailed October 10, 2025.

How do I know if my Ioniq 5 is part of recall 25V605000?

Enter your 17-character VIN in NHTSA's recall lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or call a dealer. The VIN is on your registration, insurance card and the lower corner of the windshield.

Does a recall mean my car is a lemon?

Not on its own. A lemon law claim depends on whether a covered defect keeps coming back or keeps the vehicle out of service. A recall repair that fails, or repeat visits for the same problem, can support a claim.

What should I keep for a possible lemon law claim?

Keep every repair order, the recall owner letter, your purchase or lease contract, and notes on dates, mileage and symptoms. Make sure each dealer visit is written up, even when the dealer says it cannot find a problem.

Does the recall fixing my car mean I have no case?

Not necessarily. Even if the recall repair fixed it, you may still have a case, and a car that's a year or more old can still qualify.

Do used cars qualify for California lemon law?

We take certified pre-owned, demo and dealer vehicles. Since the California Supreme Court's Rodriguez decision in 2024, ordinary used cars generally do not qualify.

How long does a recall lemon law case take?

Recall-related cases typically resolve in one to three months from your first call. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

What does a lemon law attorney cost?

You pay nothing, win or lose. We are paid only if you win, and the manufacturer pays our fees, including in settlements. If a case is lost, our firm covers the costs.
