“I have had 4 incidents so far over the last month, all lasting under 5 seconds. In each case, the regenerative braking switches to a different level without any input from the user. This presents as what feels like a level 3 (strong) braking when none was on and no foot is near the brake, or if the regen braking was turned on (in one case to level 1), it shuts off momentarily. During these incidents, the behavior is also irregularly changing between for example hard breaking (level 3) for a second and then fluttering irregularly between hard and low levels. …”

“The instrument cluster (digital speed display) on my 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid Limited has repeatedly turned off while driving. This issue happens randomly, especially in warm weather or after the car has been sitting in the sun. Sometimes the cluster reboots (I hear the start-up chime, the display shows the headlight icon, etc.), other times it remains blank for several minutes. This affects the ability to see speed, gear, and warning indicators, posing a serious safety risk. I’ve had to pull over multiple times because I couldn’t see how fast I was driving. …”
