Hyundai has issued a recall for just 33 copies of its 2025 Ioniq 5 electric vehicle (EV) because their rear side airbags might not deploy when needed.
The company tells the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that, on specific dates, factory workers may not have properly crimped a wiring harness that powers the rear side airbags. That could leave a loose connection, which, in the event of a crash, might prevent the airbags from activating.
Dealers will inspect the wiring and replace the harnesses if necessary.
By law, dealers never charge for recall repairs.
