No ID.4 was built for 2019 or 2020; the HV battery terminal fastener recall 23V472 applies to 2021-2023 models, including GTX variants. The loose fasteners can increase resistance, trigger an 'electrical system' warning, cause loss of drive power, and in severe cases lead to overheating and fire. Dealers perform the fix for free; if out of warranty, independent battery service is about $400 to $1,200.

In 2021-2023 ID.4s, water entering the rear-door handle PCB can trigger the release switch, causing the door to unlatch or open while driving, per NHTSA recall 23V640. VW's free remedy is a software update that deactivates the handle in motion, with physical handle replacement covered when necessary. Before the recall, an out-of-warranty handle replacement was about $350 to $750 per door.

In 2021-2023 ID.4s and some early 2024 vehicles, a battery control module routine can over-drain the 12V battery, opening power contactors and causing an unexpected shutdown while driving, covered by NHTSA recall 23V763. The car may show a '12-Volt Battery Not Charged' warning, fail to shift into drive, or lose power-assist steering and braking. The recall fix is a free software update; if the 12V battery needs replacement, independent shops charge roughly $250 to $400 installed.

The Discover Pro Max infotainment unit in 2021-2023 ID.4s, and some early 2024 cars with ID. Software 4.0, can freeze on a logo or show a black screen after cold starts, which also removes climate control and rear camera access. No federal recall was issued, but firmware updates and, if needed, head-unit replacement are the documented remedies. A replacement head unit after warranty costs about $1,100 to $2,300 including labor.
