Questions to ask the seller
Questions worth asking the seller of this Hyundai before you buy, drawn from its public record:
- NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for the 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N. Can you run this car's VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls and confirm each one shows "Remedy Completed"? One is a "park it" / "park outside" order, the most serious kind, so I'd want that repair documented before I drive it.

- Owners of this model report fuel system problems more than anything else (owners tend to report it near 10k miles). Has this car shown any fuel system symptoms, and are there repair records for it?
