EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
- The defect
- Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 vehicles. The right-side headlight may have an incorrect headlight aim label, which can result in improperly aimed headlights. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
- What it can cause
- Improperly aimed headlights can result in insufficient illumination of the road, decreasing the driver's visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Hyundai will mail owners a corrected label with inspection and installation instructions. Owners may bring their vehicle to a dealer for the repair, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 15, 2025. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 279.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 10,409 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 80% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Hyundai vehicles have been recalled over the exterior lighting 13 times before this, most recently in August 2024 as 24V583000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 290 complaints with NHTSA, 1 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V314000 (suspension), 26V068000 (electrical system), 25V797000 (seat belts), 25V605000 (suspension).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Hyundai Motor America with NHTSA on June 3, 2025 as campaign 25V373000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
