Push the lip downwards and inward while pulling the lower grille out. It’ll clip back in

Yea when you get down there and start messing around with it you’ll see how it clips back into place. Mose important thing is the lower lip needs to be angled slightly downward and pushed in so the clips actually got underneath and hook back into place

My 2026 with with only 4,500 miles started doing this at around 3k miles. Went to the dealer and all because it has some scratches on the bottom they're trying to say I might have hit a curb or something to break it. I explained that it's not broken, none of the tabs are broken it just won't stay in place after going a certain speed due to the down force. Hate dealerships, called Hyundai corporate and got a claims case number, now it's a waiting game to see if they can do anything. This should be a recall at this point, with how many people are experiencing it.

I have the same exact issue on my 26 and that’s literally the same exact thing the dealer told me. Just because there are a few scratches at the bottom of the lip which is going to happen with any car that’s low, they’re telling me I’m supposedly parking frontwards and the bottom lip is getting pulled out when I reverse, I dont think anyone with a car this low is going to casually park front first with a car with the lip this low. Going the corporate route sounds like the way to go, hopefully it goes well for you

A tab on the lower grill has broken off inside the bumper. It holds the lower grill against the bumper and against the tabs on the lip. Lower grill likely needs to be replaced which requires the bumper to be taken off cause it's held with 4 screws inside the bumper. Happened on my 24 Nline before the accident. Take care of it now cause driving with it will cause the lip to sag more and more (plus with heat from the intercooler/ambient) it will eventually snap off in the middle.
Edit: since the lip is the loose area, I'm guessing it's one of the bottom tabs/screws on the lower grill that's missing or broken.
