Electronics fail over and over

I've had my 2020 Ioniq for a year and a half now, and I've had nothing but problems with the electronics. My infotainment system and backup camera have each been replaced twice already (the front proximity sensors also failed), and it's going in for service for another problem with the infotainment system in a couple of weeks. It's been in the shop half a dozen times or so and Hyundai is supposed to let me know this week about buying it back. I really do love this car. It's beautiful and it drives well, but has never gotten the EPA rated 55mpg; it hovers around 42mpg, which is what my 2008 Prius was getting when it was 12 years old (and that car was solid - no issues). It's a beautiful car, but one shouldn't have all these issue with a brand new vehicle. I may get a hybrid SUV, instead, but I'm reluctant to consider another Hyundai. I may even have trouble getting a [non-Hyundai] dealership to let me trade my Ioniq in because of the issues it's had (one already told me that), so Hyundai had better buy it back!

Im 5'5 and Seats are uncomfortable they don't support my back and push my head down. I have neck and back pain. Back windshield is to small and rounded it creates corner blind spots. Because of the corner blind spots when I first got the car I almost reversed into another car. The irony is my husband made me feel like u just needed to get used to the car. Well turns out months later he was reversing and he and another car crashed into each other. Again those corner blind spots. I told him you can't rely on cameras only now he believes me.

I bought my car new in August 2021; it's a late build 2020. Currently, at 15k miles, I've had no problems with it. Complementary maintenance is provided; however, I did have my dealer perform their own 15K service which included a scan of all systems and some other checks. No updates required, although there was an open service campaign/recall for a software item that doesn't affect driving or performance. This car feels like a normal car, in that it is heavy and tracks on the road well. My prior Elantra was really squirrelly over bumps, etc. All the interior parts are pretty fit, no rattles yet, although the back hatchback does make noise over bumps. The car does not have a lot of get up and go, though, but I didn't buy it for that. In the summer, the car get up to 57mpg; in the winter, about 45. Batteries do not like cold weather, plus use of the heater keeps the engine on more. I'm 6'0, 190 and fit in the car well. The seating adjustment is sufficient and I feel well situated in the car. The Hyundai Driver Assist feature is pretty awesome, too. Interior is still like new and holding up well. Hyundai dealership service has been good, too, in Hillsboro, OR.

2020 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid

No wonder the Fuel economy is great because its made of thinnest material from bumper to bumper, you could literally push the body inside with press of a thumb only, all options required options comes in Preferred (SEL) Trim like Lane Change Assist, Lane Assist, Sunroof which cost $10K makes sense but just a card board hit from the bottom of car and it break Splash guard made of literally cardboard like fiber, took 5 month to arrive and cost me more than $3000 so parts are not available and very pricy as well (and if repair from outside were loosing all extended warranty which I bought extra). Uncomfortable , Very Noisy (in 1 yr all parts starts giving rattling sound just after driving it for 24Km on highway only was not reviewing before because waiting to sell that first. Much better and 15K cheaper option is Elantra (not hybride but still very fuel economical), in Similar price option Toyota Corolla, or Honda Civic price is almost the same but finance cost is little high but they retain its value in long term so it even out). Hybrid Ioniq only makes sense if its sells for CAD$ 20K maximum (for Hybrid)
