2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“The tubing that is used to connect the windshield washer reservoir to the nozzles that deliver the washer fluid to the windshield is prone to rodent activity. This tubing has been punctured by rodents twice now - with one intervening tube replacement. I have to replace the tubing again today. It has been less than two weeks since I last replaced the tubing. The replacement tubing was purchased from a Hyundai dealership. It appears that this will be an ongoing issue that will impact the operational safety of the vehicle.”

“I purchased a 2024 Ionic 5 on January 29th on a day without rain/snow. The first time it rained I found out that there was no rear wiper. I assumed there to be one as its a SUV with a slanted back window, not straight up and down. When it rains or snows the water/snow just sits on the back window, making it impossible to see out the back window. I know every Ionic 5 is like this. On researching the 2025's now have them due to customer feedback. I don't believe this is a convenience issue, but a safety one not being able to see out the back window.”

“It is impossible to see through the back window when it rains. It has no wiper--and unlike other cars, it is not aerodynamic and does not push rain off the back windshield. When it rains, you cannot see anything. Due to the location of the backup camera, it also becomes wet and you cannot see anything when doing in reverse through the window or backup camera when it's raining.”

“Overnight, the windshield spontaneously developed a huge crack going from the A-pillar to halfway across the windshield. The car was parked at the time.”
