The EPB will disengage under normal operation if all doors are closed. If doors are open, EPB will not disengage. If going from park to drive, this is not a problem. However, if in drive, traveling with trunk open for oversized cargo, the vehicle will drive normally until a stop on an incline, when the EPB will engage automatically, and then when the driver tries to proceed from the stop, their vehicle is disabled. The driver can provide power to drive train and burn the EPB. The driver must manually intervene after every stop on an incline  to disengage the EPB to avoid being disabled at an intersection.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2024","productMake":"HYUNDAI","productModel":"KONA ELECTRIC","manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America"}]},{"odiNumber":11677562,"manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/05/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"07/31/2025","vin":"KM8HC3A64RU","components":"SEATS","summary":"On June 5, 2025 I picked up a passenger who couldn't sit in the passenger seat because the headrest is canted at an unsafe angle so the passenger looks down and cannot look straight through the windshield.

The first instance was on [XXX] near Burlington, MA on [XXX], and then it happened several other times before we were able to get the vehicle to a Hyundai dealership for diagnosis and repair.  The power loss typically manifested in the vehicle stuck at about 20-25 mph despite generous use of the accelerator pedal (often to the floor). There were no error messages or similar diagnostic information provided before, during, or after moments when power loss occurred. Often the vehicle would return to normal operation after a few minutes or by turning the vehicle off and back on again.  The safety of the driver and passengers was at significant risk, especially on higher speed roadways due to the slow speed of the Kona in these moments.  The dealer service department completed extensive diagnostics as detailed in the service report PDF attached. They ultimately found a nut (designated \"ge09\") connecting several ground wires to the chassis was loose. After replacing the nut and tightening to specification the problem has not recurred.   We are satisfied with the communication and fix from the dealership and Hyundai corporate representatives, but concerned other Hyundai owners might encounter this issue with their vehicle.
