2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited — question: Alignment still pulls after tires were rotated

TruckTravelerCommunity StarterJul 19, 20262023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 LimitedDallas–Fort Worth
2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited, about 14,500 miles. Car started pulling slightly right after a tire rotation. Alignment printout is technically in spec. Is it worth cross-rotating tires to check radial pull before paying for another alignment? I'm in Dallas–Fort Worth. Any data points from owners would help.

Cleared nothing. I want service to see the alert on the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 first. Not interested in a five-hour wait for a shrug.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 so service can see what you saw. I'd do that before spending real money. Stop there until you know. I already checked the easy fluid levels.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. I'd do that before spending real money. The universe charges extra for guessing. Worth doing even if the car feels fine right now. I'll poke at it this weekend.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 charge sessions. Then you'll know the next fork. This is from a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 in Dallas–Fort Worth with 14,500 miles. Stop there until you know. A day of patience here is cheaper than a wrong part. I'll poke at it this weekend.

I'd treat 12V warnings as a no-ignore. On the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. I'd do that before spending real money. On “question: alignment still pulls after tires were,” that was the fork that mattered for me. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.

If your situation is the opposite, ignore me. Wrote this up on my lunch break.

I went back under the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 and it only happens after a heat soak, not on a cold start. I keep a notes app thread for this now.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. I'd do that before spending real money. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

Tried a second charger / second scan and the story on the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 didn't change. No warning lights, which is why I'm documenting it.

I'd do that before spending real money. Verbal 'we'll take care of it' is not a plan. I've seen both outcomes, which is why I'd test instead of assume. Heat soak after errands is the other window.

Run the total, not the monthly, before you commit. Cold start is when I can actually reproduce it.

I'd push back a little: Try a second charger before blaming the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. I'd do that before spending real money. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. If it repeats twice more I'll book time.
