Why are my Hyundai IONIQ 5 brakes making grinding noise?

Hyundai of San Bruno – Why are my Hyundai IONIQ 5 brakes making grinding noise?

If you’re driving a Hyundai IONIQ 5 and have noticed an unsettling grinding noise when applying the brakes, it’s essential not to ignore this warning sign. Brake grinding could indicate worn brake pads, debris caught between the rotor and pad, or, in some cases, issues within the braking system itself. While regenerative braking on the IONIQ 5 plays a significant role in daily stops, the traditional brake components are still crucial for safety. If you are located in or around San Bruno, CA, or near Millbrae, Pacifica, and South San Francisco, Hyundai of San Bruno is your local resource for trusted, professional service.

When you first hear grinding, you can protect your vehicle’s braking system and your safety by following these steps:

• Gently test braking to confirm the sound; avoid aggressive stops to prevent further damage.
• Visually inspect for obvious debris around the wheels if safe to do so, but do not attempt repairs without proper know-how.
• Check your vehicle’s dashboard for any brake system or warning lights.
• Schedule an inspection with certified Hyundai technicians at Hyundai of San Bruno—never delay professional service when it comes to brakes.

Our state-of-the-art service department uses only Genuine Hyundai Parts and OEM-approved techniques to inspect, diagnose, and repair your braking system, ensuring your IONIQ 5 maintains optimal performance and safety features like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist and Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS).
