Turn this deal down?
Just read in Reddit Ioniq 6 forum titled ‘Stop Sale Ioniq 6’
Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 sales have been halted due to
ICCU recalls…
Can anybody confirm this.
It’s almost certainly related to the new ICCU recall hitting what is probably all model years of the IONIQ6, along with most IONIQ5, Genesis, and Kia EVs.
Dealer was trying to lease me a car under RECALL…!!!

The recall was just announced. The dealer probably didn’t know yet, since they can’t officially sell/lease any car with a recall.
