2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Forward collision avoidance Problems

“I turned on adaptive cruise control while on the highway and got an alert from the Forward Attention Warning system that I wasn't paying attention even though I was looking out at the road normally. The car eventually decided this meant I was unresponsive and initiated an automatic Emergency Stop in the middle of the highway. The only way I could get the adaptive cruise control to work as expected was to remove my glasses, which I need to see clearly and drive safely. …”

“With Adaptive Cruise control and Lane Keeping Assist on, no matter how attentive I am, within a couple minutes (give or take) I get Driver Attention warnings. These warnings are distracting and require manual intervention in traffic. I can stop them either by turning cruise control on and off, or by accelerating manually, which can be dangerous and/or inconvenient. I do sit high in the seat, as I have a long back. I wear no glasses. I have normal wide open eyes. I am keeping my hands at 10-2 orientation. …”

“The Forward Attention Warning system in the refreshed 2025 Ioniq 5 gives constant false positives for both my wife and myself when we are driving the car. With Hyundai's HDA and lane keep active, the system keeps chiming, claiming that the driver is not looking at the road when we are. In fact, the calibration is so poor that it is a safety issue. The constant random warnings are very distracting, and sometimes the system does not recapture your eyes before timing out and hard braking the car on the highway. …”

“The lane-keeping assistance system on this vehicle is equipped with a driver attention monitoring system that is meant to tell if the driver has his or her attention focused off the road. The trouble is that this system is far too sensitive and prone to very loud and distracting false alarms to the point where it becomes *MUCH* more distracting than the distractions it is meant to prevent. I almost lost control of the vehicle at freeway speeds once because the system alarmed so suddenly and loudly that it startled me. This needs to be fixed.”

“When in cruise control, the driver attention warning message appears regardless of where my eyes might be, whether I am wearing glasses or sunglasses or not, with nothing obstucting the sensor, with the steering wheel adjusted higher or lower. I have since May of 2025 tried to figure out how to get it to work properly to no avail. The warning continues to appear with an alarm ubntil it turns the motor off completely, even at highway speed causing an extremely dangerous situation. Additionally, I depend on the cruise control to help me maintain a safe, legal speed. …”
