Initial build quality has been terrible

The initial quality of the vehicle has been the worse of the past 3 Hyundai vehicles I have owned and of 10 my family has purchased. With a defect drivers windshield wiper arm that makes the vehicle inoperable in the rain, the dealership can’t give me an ETA on when the part will be available. The paint has debris on the ceiling and around the rear taillights with rusting spots on the tailgate in a car that’s 2 months old and only 2500 miles on it. The dealer refuses to do anything to correct the issues and customer support has yet to respond to my complaints.

Smooth ride, but I wish the Limited had additional features.

I traded in a Limited Palisade and lost some of the functions I had (i.e., heads up display) in the Limited Ionic 9. Feel it should've been included.

Could have been the best SUV

Overall IONIQ 9 is a decent vehicle and I would have given 5 stars if it isn’t build quality issues.

Amazing, but too many quality issues and horrible support from Hyundai

Amazing car. Love the range, comfort, NACS access, autonomous driving features, mix of options at this Trim (SEL). Unfortunately the car has had 4 different quality issues so far (control panel on seat popped out, paint peeling off front bumper, felt peeling off seatbelt buckle, trim lifting off rear passenger window). Hyundai and my local dealer denied addressing these issues, saying that the dealership I purchased at was responsible for addressing. This dealership is 50+ miles away from me... Why doesn't Hyundai own it's own quality?? It was a perpetual argument with the dealership to get the issues addressed as well with some sort of compensation for the mileage (I'm on a lease...every mile counts).

Overall, great car.

This is my first EV, coming from a BMW x5 plug in. Overall build quality is good, satisfy with the EV range. I do wish leather-is an available option. Slight wind noise on highway.

Best car I ever owned

After driving 3,000 miles in two months the car has performed well. I like how spacious and comfortable it is. The only flaw I have noticed is that when using the lane keeping feature, it constantly moves slightly left and right rather than keeping a steady lateral position in the middle of the lane. Not enough to be a safety concern but enough to be slightly uncomfortable for people in the car. It would also be nice if the cruise control adjusted to a new lower speed limit at or before the new speed limit rather than a few seconds after which potentially could result in a ticket.

Met all expectations and provided a few extra nice surprises.

Overall I am very happy with the choice to purchase the IONIQ 9. I acclimated quickly to the controls and driving the vehicle. I have a few, what I consider nitpick, issues about the insert above the tires, or the choice of the dash insert in front of the passenger, and the driver seat remained stiffer/hard after using the massage. The 300+ miles on a full charge and the aDC fast charge capability has greatly reduced my range anxiety, though more miles would always be better. I get tons of compliments on the look and finish of the car. All my friends love it when I pick them up to go somewhere.

Failed at 1.5 days

Failed infotainment system. Screen went blank after 1.5 days. Over three weeks to replace the system and the new system is for the wrong car. It doesn't have any EV functionality, stuck at 80% max charge, no EV details, etc. Back at the dealership for a new system. Asked for a new car since it worked for 1.5 days in the first month and have not gotten anywhere. Very frustrating to spend $70,000 on a new car and not have Hyundai stand behind their product.
