description: APPARENTLY, A FRONT-END COLLISION OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED IN A PARKING LOT RESULTING IN $1232 IN DAMAGE TO BODY PARTS, ANTI-COLLISION RADAR, AND ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL. ASTONISHINGLY, THE BUMPER AND EVEN THE FRONT LICENSE PLATE SUSTAINED ALMOST NO VISIBLE DAMAGE WHATSOEVER. SEE PHOTOS ATTACHED. THE COLLISION MUST HAVE HAPPENED AT EXTREMELY LOW SPEED AND IT IS OBVIOUS THE FRONT BUMPER DID NOTHING TO PROTECT THE REST OF THE CAR--ITS PRIMARY INTENDED FUNCTION. THIS WOULD BE THE EQUIVALENT OF A HOUSE BURNING DOWN TO PROTECT THE FUSE BOX. I CHECKED YOUR WEBSITE AND NOTE THAT THE HYUNDAI IONIQ IS AS YET NOT RATED. I SUSPECT THERE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR A CAR TO SUSTAIN SUCH DAMAGE IN A PARKING LOT WITH ALMOST NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO ITS PRIMARY PROTECTION MECHANISM: THE BUMPER. PLEASE NOTE THAT ITEMS DAMAGED WERE ALL IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE BUMPER--A VERY DANGEROUS PLACE FOR THEM TO BE.
