What do I do?
Just received this message after parking my car for one hour, do I need to get it jumped? Replace the battery?

Just received this message after parking my car for one hour, do I need to get it jumped? Replace the battery?
Decided to take advantage of the 72 month 0% financing deal and picked up a 2026 Ioniq 5 Limited RWD in Lucid Blue. I live in Southern CA.
Any tips/tricks to be aware of as a new owner? This is my first EV as well.
Thank you in advance?
First time leaving town in our EV. Wife has had an I6 for a couple years now but we always took my CRV if it was beyond a charge's worth of driving. My I5 did pretty great. We charged 3x, twice at a Rivian charger that was easy/straightfoward (with adapter) but quite pricey and finally at an Ionna Chargery coming home that was less than half price ($.20/kW, think it was a 4th of July sale) and just as fast. Both were pulling in ~150 kW and brought us from 30 or 40% to 80 in 10/15min. Definitely an adjustment from gassing up, but honestly not a big deal when getting a drink or using the bathroom. When we ever do a more extensive trip, I think we'll give one of the apps (ABRP) or the built in a chance to map things out for us. Overall, not as scary as expected from almost exclusive home charging and a bit of fun.
The latest July 26 update mentioned that CarPlay was now a tap away, which I found odd because it sort of always was. It’s available on the Home Screen and you can assign the media star button to it. Oddly though, the steering wheel star button never worked like that. “Phone Projection” was an option but it didn’t send you to CarPlay.
Well I can confirm it now does!
Also, the mode button has CarPlay as an option so now you can seamlessly flip between CarPlay and other audio sources. Whereas before, once you flipped to say, FM, you’d have to go back to CarPlay and hit play to start the music there. Now mode lets you cycle between the two (or however many sources you want) and CarPlay resumes playing audio.
Let me know if you find any other CarPlay access improvements!
EDIT: apparently other people always had this. I can confirm it didn’t work for me and when I googled it lots of others seem to have had the issue. I wonder what Hyundai means by “CarPlay is now one tap away” with this update…
If and when the ICCU problem is finally fixed, will that make the Ionia 5 a perfect EV? Let’s ignore Full Self Driving related criticism, I just don’t see any other complaints about this car.
Had my '26 XRT Lifted with the Truxxx lift kit yesterday. $400 in WNC for installation and alignment. Wanted more clearance to reach trailheads as we live at the base of Pisgah Forest and are frequently off road. This puts us close to 9 inches.
First impressions: step-in and trunk height are much more practical. We're coming from a '22 Bronco Sport Badlands, so the XRT has felt pretty low. Now, that's fixed. Sitting in the garage, it feels more like an SUV now and less like a hatchback.
By my measurements, we gained 1.75" of height (I measured an arbitrary trim line on the side before and after). It's visually noticable, but doesn't look ridiculous (others may feel differently). I think there's room to go up a tire size, but not sure I ever will.
We had been getting 3.9 mi/kWh in mixed driving (mostly city and back roads, some highway) and moderate weather over 6ish weeks of ownership; I'll report back on range impact (some drop will likely also be due to the temps rising here and running AC more frequently).
Need to spend the weekend with it to see if the ride or road noise are impacted.
Only complaint is the shop wasn't able to get the alignment perfect (they said the kit makes it impossible to get it perfect without further modifications). We'll see if this impacts driving experience or tire wear long term.
On the whole, I think the improved clearance, for our use, will outweigh any of the negatives. But if I ever feel differently, we'll simply uninstall it.
Looks like Hyundai is keeping the financing deal at 7k. Y'all think grab now or wait for the winter deals or '27?
Given I have seen a fair amount of speculation about the likelihood of 12V battery issues arising, I thought this article was worth sharing. The Which? annual car survey reports that 27.3% of Ioniq 5 owners are reporting 12V battery problems, which is up to 13 times the likelihood of problems in the average petrol car.
My own car failed multiple times before my Hyundai dealer finally fixed the issue. This issue aside these are great cars but Hyundai really need to sort this out as a near 30% failure rate is clearly unacceptable.
1st time leaving my I5 for more than a few days unused (also this is my 1st EV)
Are there any best practices for leaving the car for 3 weeks at an airport car park ? (I'd assume try and leave it with as close to 50% charge as possible?)
We just bought a 2023 SEL. We only use the Level 1 charger that came with it. We can get about 50 miles of charge overnight from it and spouse's daily commute is only 20 so we pretty much stay at 80%. But I understand we have a CCS connector and NACS is now the growing standard? Should I have a CCS to NACS adapter in the car for charging on trips? What do you recommend?
Is there a way to identify CCS chargers for trip planning?
I started noticing this rattle about a month after I bought the car. It starts around 75 km/h and seems to be linked to the wind (if I’m driving into the wind it will start at a lower speed and stop if I turn with the wind).
It sounds like it’s coming from behind the dash and is equally loud on both sides of the car. I am assuming it’s coming from the engine compartment, but don’t know for sure. Video included, ignore my dirty floor mats.
I have tried the following:
Empty the glove box
Remove the lid and hinges from the frunk
Remove the snap away pieces from the frunk
Tighten the bolts on the plastic pieces under the hood
Put foam on the license plate holder
Put foam on the inner part of the hood struts
With the hood open and the car stopped, the closest I’ve come to recreating the sound is jiggling the hood pistons that hold the hood up when you open it. But it sounds like it’s coming from lower.
If anyone has any ideas, I’d love to hear them. I will bring it back to the dealer if I can’t solve it myself, it’s just an hour away and a pain to make it happen.
I had a power outage due to the hot weather and I right away got to work hooking up my downstairs fridge and freezer (we have one of each) to my car.
Ran everything for 27 hours and my car battery went from 68% at the start of this to 57%. Pretty awesome!
Thankfully everything's back up and running now.
not really my first car. but it's the first car I chose and I purchased. it's incredible. using a state program that I qualified for I was able to trade in my barely functional 2010 Toyota Prius (inherited from my grandmother) for this and get $10k knocked off the price. I put $6k down. so I'm financing $19k at 4.99% for this used 2023 Ioniq 5 limited with 33k miles. CPO.
I got tuxmats for it, AAwireless, and ordered a dongar so I can use my dashcam. I'm considering adding a ceramic tint to it. has anyone tinted the panoramic roof? thoughts?
Got tired of the bulky egg Fob. Came across 3DPrintingDesign's 3d model on etsy and printed a couple different colors.
Super happy with how it came out. But noticed the gap between the buttons on the 3d design leaves enough space for water/moisture to get in so I made the fob water resistant to some degree using plastidip on the inside of the fob to seal in between the buttons
I just bought a 2024 and as a new EV owner I was worried about it not being compatible with NACS. However, having researched more about the various charging options with EVgo, PlugShare, ABRP, etc, it seems like there are just as many CCS and J1772 options, if not more, than NACS. I actually think I would have been annoyed with the NACS port as I would have had to use an adapter often. Is the move to NACS really about the supercharger network and that’s it? Their speeds are not even that good and I will avoid them like the plague because of what they represent. I don’t understand the move to NACS tbh.
EDIT to say: I know my car is compatible with NACS using an adapter, I was just worried this would be a more constant affair with a CCS car and a major hassle. However it appears the vast majority of public DC is CCS, not NACS, so I don’t need to worry about it.
Picked up my 2026 AWD Limited yesterday! Love it!!
