Hyundai Motor Company has announced a recall of Ioniq 6 vehicles built between 2022 and 2024 in Australia. In total, 1,191 cars are affected.

The campaign stems from a factory defect involving the adhesive bonding of the charging-port door’s protective panel. Insufficient glue application can weaken the panel’s attachment, creating a risk that it may open while the vehicle is in motion, which could lead to hazardous situations on the road. A small assembly lapse like this may sound minor, but on a moving car it becomes a genuine safety concern.

Owners of the affected vehicles will receive official letters from Hyundai Australia. After receiving the notice, customers will be invited to visit an authorized dealer to have the defect remedied at no cost, either by replacing the charging-port door or reinstalling it. The remedy focuses precisely on the faulty panel, keeping the fix clear-cut and targeted.
