I found the automatic speed change to be so unusable that I disabled it through the settings after about a week of use. Among the catalog of faults it had back in 2022 (I haven’t enabled it since):

• It sometimes mistook truck speed signs for regular speed limit signs.
• It had no clue about "end speed zone" signs.
• It did not know that school zone speed limits are not in effect when school is not in session. You know, at 2 AM.
• Fairly often it apparently forgot the last sign it saw and reverted to some number apparently stored in an internal database. The speed it reverted to could be either far slower or far faster than the actual speed limit.
• It sometimes picked up the speed sign on an adjacent service road parallel to the freeway.

I found it a safety hazard and can’t believe that anyone in their right mind would leave it on.

At first I tried setting the cruise control to a couple MPH above the actual speed limit as that was supposed to make it ignore the speed signs but I don’t normally speed (yeah, I am one of those) so that bothered me. So I ended up permanently turning it off in the vehicle settings. I don’t recall where that setting is in the controls to disable it because it has been so long since I did it, but it is in there somewhere.

Regarding getting an email about a speed alert from Bluelink: I read the terms and conditions on that safe driver and decided I wanted nothing to do with it so never set it up. It means I don’t get a score saying how safe or unsafe I am. But it also means my personal profile is not being sold by Hyundai.

With respect to the 272 recall for the ICCU, that will have no effect on the automatic speed limit function.

The speedo overreads by about 3mph at 70, so if your cruise control is set to 73 you will be doing about 70 actual mph. Or you could set it to 69.

I haven’t rechecked since I had new tires installed, but at time I got the car I found the speedometer exactly matched my handheld GPS. This is the first car I have ever owned where that was true and I was a little surprised. I will be doing a 10 hour trip this week on roads mostly posted at 70 MPH, I guess I will take my trusty old Garmin GPS along and check again.

Ur first item about the graffiti is interesting. I saw on Hyundai videos that cars can read traffic signs but didn't think that it was on US models. Maybe on higher trims like urs but not mine.

My 2022 Limited can definitely read the speed limit signs.

Unfortunately, it sometimes reads and acts truck speed limit signs. It doesn’t know about "End Construction” and other similar signs that mean you can resume the normal speed. It doesn’t know about time of day or day of week restrictions like school zones.

And worse, at some distance which seems to vary between 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile, it seems to forget the sign it correctly identified and decide to go at a speed apparently saved in its map data. And the map data speed limit information is woefully incorrect for non-freeway, non-major highways.
