All Fuel/propulsion System Complaints (63)
3rd ICCU failure. Was Driving and went into limp turtle mode. Was in a dangerous area for it to happen and took a while to get to a safe place.
Electric Drive System Inoperable, sustained an immediate failure upon engaging in Drive mode. Dashboard lit up with warning lights and messages. Luckily was just pulling out onto road when vehicle completely died. Tow service unable to start vehicle with jumper module. After being towed to dealer, was diagnosed with failed ICCU. The original ICCU was replaced previously in January 2025. Luckily was not underway on the road when it happened. There was no warning, no indication that there was any problem.
The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failed - the car is no longer capable of driving due to the lack of ability to charge the battery. I was able to get it to the repair center. The ICCU on this model can fail in multiple ways, which includes the vehicle becoming inoperable at highway speeds. The issue first started 2025/11/13. I tried multiple charging units. It flipped the breaker on my home charger and caused issues for a public charger.
Even after the recall service performed, the ICCU still failed 10 months later. DTC P1E011C is listed and will not charge. This is the same issue for the KIA EV9 and a TSB needs to be issued the same as the TSB 339 KIA did for the EV9.
Despite being up-to-date on recalls for this vehicle intended to address failures with the integrated charging control unit (ICCU), I still experienced an ICCU failure. I was driving along a surface road at approximately 40 mph for about 9 minutes when I heard a pop that sounded like cargo shifting in the rear cargo area. The vehicle then flashed a "Check EV System" warning but otherwise continued to operate normally. About 2 minutes later, there was a warning to stop vehicle and check power supply. After I pulled into a parking lot, I restarted the vehicle, but the errors persisted. I had the vehicle towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed as an ICCU failure. The vehicle was last charged ~15 hours before the failure on a level 2 charger at a peak rate of 6 kw. The vehicle was driven for about an hour after charging, sat overnight, before being driven when the failure occurred. The vehicle is primarily charged using level 1 and 2 charging, typically not exceeding 6.3 kw. Only a handful of times has level 2 charging rates exceeded 6.3 kw. The vehicle previously had the ICCU fail and replaced in 2023. The car is still at the dealership with no repair timeline.
Battery conditioning (heating) is required for fast charging at cold temperatures. The current method of enabling this function takes many steps including going into the EV setting to enable this option (since it automatically turns off when changing some settings in the Hyundai Bluelink App), then opening the navigation screen, looking at a map and scrolling though a long list of charging sites, picking the desired charger then starting the navigation and route to that site. This has to be to done while in route to a specific charger, normally this would be on the freeway 20-40 minutes before arrival at a fast charging station. It is a distraction while driving and is an issue with all Ioniq 5's sold from 2022-2024. Hyundai fixed this problem for the 2025 model year but have not do so on the previous cars at this time. Hyundai needs to add this 1 touch preconditioning option for safety and driver ease of use. I feel it should required on all EVs that offer battery conditioning. I have told them about this several times and not gotten a response and according to posts in various online communities many other have also reported this issue to Hyundai but they have taken no action.
I was driving along and got a warning to pull over due to low power. This is the third time this has occurred and is a well--documented failure point for this vehicle. I go in for "repair", things are checked and sometimes software is updated and then within months the problem returns. Very unsafe being stranded on a high speed, two land rural road at night. It has been flat bedded to the dealer and tomorrow I will here theri song and dance.
On numerous occasions starting May 2024 and continuing through July 2025, my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 displayed a “Check electric vehicle system” error upon starting the vehicle. In June 2024, Hyundai replaced the vehicle's VCM under warranty. In December 2024, the car wouldn't start. Hyundai replaced the 12v battery under warranty. In April 2025, the vehicle would not drive above 20 mph and warned of imminent shutdown while driving and Hyundai eventually replaced the ICCU under warranty. And in July 2025, Hyundai replaced the charging port under warranty. In all, the vehicle has been out service for 95 days while being repaired under warranty and most of those days I was not provided with a loaner vehicle. During the ICCU replacement, I was forced to rent a vehicle two separate times to get to work. Hyundai assured me that I would be reimbursed both for costs associated with the rental vehicles and the loss of use of my vehicle while under repairs, however despite multiple emails and conversations and having provided all requested documentation, I have received no reimbursement from Hyundai. Please assist me in obtaining reimbursement from Hyundai as soon as possible. Thank you!
The ICCU in the car failed. It immediately limited the speed of the vehicle to 25mph. There were no warnings, it happened all at once. I had to drive on the shoulder of the interstate to the next exit. Obviously, driving 25 on the shoulder while cars passed me at 65+ was not a safe situation.
On January 31, 2025, my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 experienced a failure with its ICCU resulting in the vehicle to lose all power and become unable to be turned on exposing myself and others to conditions where the vehicle could become a serious safety hazard due to its complete lack of power. This occurred despite the application of the NHTSA Hyundai Recall 272 only two weeks prior to this incident which was supposed to prevent this serious safety defect from occurring. The vehicle's 12 V battery was subsequently replaced allowing the vehicle to display a "Check electric vehicle system" warning. The dealership has since confirmed this as the ICCU defect. No warnings or other messages preceded this incident.
Hyundai Ioniq EV's have a continuing issue with a component called that "ICCU". The ICCU and high voltage fuse failed even after two recalls meant to monitor that problem and update the software. Luckily, mine failed in my driveway at home which did not put me in immediate risk. However, many people have this part fail while driving on roads and highways with zero warning. There have been two ICCU-related recalls that my car has had. When I started my vehicle I heard a "pop" and then the dashboard said "Check vehicle electrical system" and then shows the "limp mode" icon allowing to drive the vehicle at a slow speed to safety.
ICCU and High Voltage Fuse blew suddenly and without warning on a 50 mph poorly lit road before sunrise. Vehicle immediately entered limp mode in traffic. Car could not make it safely back home before losing all power in the middle of the road (no warning was given that limp mode was about to fail it just stopped with all screens still on).The dead 12v battery (which the ICCU failed to recharge) made the car completely immobile once it turned off even for towing purposes. Put my safety as a driver and those on the road with me at risk with the vehicle drastically slowing down in the middle of travel with no way for others to pass me. Problem confirmed as the ICCU failure by dealer after finally restoring enough power to get the vehicle in neutral to be towed. The pending recall on this Vin is only pending because it is still sitting waiting for the replacement part a month later. no ETA on a resolution as Hyundai has stopped responding to requests for any information on timelines other than "eventually it will be replaced". All previous recalls for this problem were completed but were only software updates to "potential lower chances of occurrence". Issue is a very known Hardware issue and is very well documented online and local dealers are extremely familiar with it, but Hyundais solution is only to check if the part has already failed and a software update that does not fully prevent the failure in the future. Issue still occurred. no prior warning or behaviors were given
On [XXX] I was preparing to leave for work in the morning. I unplugged my Ioniq 5 from the home charger, entered the car, and started the vehicle. Immediately, the panel warning system stated “Check Electrical System.” Because I am familiar with the warnings that have been displayed related to ICCU failure, I called the dealership to schedule a service appointment (set for February 18, the following Tuesday). I drove the car to work for a meeting, then restarted the vehicle following the meeting and the same message appeared on the screen. I then drove the vehicle directly to Werner Hyundai Service Department in Tallahassee, Florida and left it for diagnostics. On February 14, 2025, my service advisor called to advise that the ICCU and the VCMS had failed and required replacement. I was then advised that I would be placed on a waiting list for an ICCU part that was expected to be released nationwide on March 1, 2025. As of today’s date, March 8th, I have not been made aware of an ICCU part availability (apparently the VCMS has arrived at the dealership and is being held pending the receipt of an ICCU) nor an anticipated repair of my vehicle, it remains at the dealership service department pending parts availability. My husband unplugged our home charger that uses a 220 volt plug and noted that the plug showed melting damage and that the plug and wall had black marks that suggest that the car caused a malfunction that resulted in a spark in our garage. Due to the location of the outlet, the spark did not cause a fire. Since that date, every time our HVAC system comes on at home, our lights flash, this did not happen prior to [XXX]. We are contacting an electrician to inspect the outlet and any affect the surge had on our home electrical panel. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Was pulling out of drive way. Loud pop heard in the car. Immediately car flashed warning telling me electrical system had an issue and I needed to pull over and have the car towed to a dealer for service. Was told the part was related to the iccu and would take a couple days to arrive. Part is now on back order. 3 weeks later I am still waiting with little to no update on timeline for repair.
ICCU failure. Vehicle abruptly reduced speed while on the road. Hyundai has inspected the vehicle and confirmed the failure. "Stop vehicle and check power supply" warning. "Check electric vehicle system" warning. "12v batter voltage low. Stop safely" warning. All first appeared within a few minutes of the vehicle losing power. Vehicle has been at dealership for repair/replacement of ICCU since February 7th.
This is the second time I’ve taken my Hyundai IONIQ 5 in to Hyundai as part of a recall “fix” for ICCU Failure. Each time, the car has been operating fine, I take the car in for the “fix” as it’s required, and then shortly after the car breaks down while it’s in motion / operating. I’ve concluded these are not “fixes” and I have no ability to trust the safety or reliability of the vehicle. 1) ICCU Failure 8 Days After Recall “Fix”. Same thing happened the previous year. Took the car in for the recall “Fix” and shortly after the car dangerous broke down while driving. 2) Car became a brick. 3) Yes, Hyundai Service Center has confirmed ICCU fault. 4) Yes, see #3 5) Yes, minutes before the car became inoperable.
My car suffered a failure of the Integrated Charge Control Unit ("ICCU") which makes the car underivable. This is the third time that I have had an issue with the ICCU. The first two times, it failed to charge the 12V battery, leading to a loss of all 12V systems and being unable to drive the car. This third time, the car now refuses to charge on AC power. Hyundai has tried to "repair" this issue with software updates, but it doesn't fix it. Now I am waiting for a remanufactured ICCU to replace my broken one.
Electrical system failure. Available for inspection upon request. While driving, warning appeared on dashboard. Warning said, "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply" The safety of vehicle occupants and others on the road was put at risk. I lost control of the vehicle in the middle of traffic due to the loss of electrical power. The problem has been confirmed by San Leandro Hyundai as part of the Safety Recall for the Integrated Charging Control Unit, Recall number 272. NHTSA Recall number 24V-868. The recall repair was completed but the ICCU was not replaced and is still defective. A few minutes prior to the eletrical failure a warning message appeared on the dashboard. The warning message said, "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply". First appeared on Saturday January 11th at 4PM (PT).
Driving on the highway the car entered limp mode allowing only 30 mph. Messages "stop vehicle and check power supply" with 12V battery indicator. Classic ICCU failure.
Hyundai of Fort Myers Repair Order Number [XXXX] Dear NHTSA Team, I am reaching out to formally report a significant safety concern involving our Hyundai Ioniq 5, which recently experienced an Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failure. This malfunction occurred despite our vehicle receiving all relevant software and hardware updates that Hyundai implemented to address this known issue. This experience has caused our family considerable distress and has raised serious doubts about the reliability of this model, as well as the adequacy of Hyundai’s current safety measures to prevent ICCU failure. While my wife and young daughter were in the car, the ICCU failure occurred suddenly, producing a loud pop that alarmed us all, particularly my daughter who was seated in the rear. She has since expressed fear about riding in the Ioniq 5, making it clear that this issue has impacted her sense of security in the car. Despite the updates Hyundai has issued, the failure occurred without warning, putting us in a vulnerable situation and highlighting that the current remedies may be insufficient to prevent this risk. The gravity of this problem is amplified by my wife’s critical health needs. She is currently on the waiting list for a kidney transplant, and our family requires a dependable vehicle to ensure she can be transported quickly and safely to her medical appointments and, when the time comes, to the hospital for her transplant. We cannot rely on the Ioniq 5 for these crucial needs given our recent experience with this unexpected breakdown. I am requesting that the NHTSA investigate this issue, as our experience suggests that Hyundai’s current measures to address ICCU failure may not adequately safeguard Ioniq 5 owners. A comprehensive review of this problem could be critical in ensuring the safety of other drivers and families who may be unknowingly exposed to the risk of sudden vehicle malfunctions. We hope that the NHTSA will consider further action
Today when I was driving down a canyon going 40 mph, the car started coasting and the accelerator was unresponsive. I couldn't keep the car from decreasing speed and regen braking wasn't working either. I don't know whether it's related, but this happened within seconds of me turning off daylight savings time in the menu. I coasted to a safe place to pull over (the brakes worked fine), but I could not get the accelerator to work after switching from drive to park to drive again. After turning the car off and then back on, the accelerator again worked like normal. After continuing driving, I turned daylight savings time on and off a few times, but nothing adverse happened.
In Apr 2024 we had an issue with charging the vehicle at level 1 and level 2 took to dealer and they replaced the ICCU unit. A week later the car was DOA no lights nothing so we had to jump start it. We Took to dealer they did an update , week later DOA again. Took to dealer and found out the MSU part needs to be replaced Back ordered for a month and still at dealer was given a loaner, sound familar cause its occuring over and over. Waiting on repair no ETA.
Vehicle was having issues charging large battery. Would shut off immediately. Today 12v battery died, probably related to ICCU recall performed earlier this month.
I was driving 75mph on the freeway and I heard a pop and then the electrical warning system on the car lit up. I lost power to the car and was only able to accelerate minimally. There was a warning of low battery and the vehicle was going to lose power. I turned on my hazard lights and was able to get to the exit and was able to exit the freeway safely. Once the vehicle lost power I was unable to open the charger door, start the vehicle, use any of the key fob functions and had to jump the 12V battery, only to die immediately after. There is no pre-warning to this happening, it just shows the alert and the car loses all power. There are also problems with the vehicle after being plugged in to charge and it says "Charging Unsuccessful", or stops charging after a short period of time. It also will not charge to full capacity at home or the charging station. I receive no warning lights or messages about why the charge is not working. It took weeks to get the vehicle into the dealer, making it extremely unsafe to drive and the error has almost caused a major crash. My vehicle has been at the dealer and has not been diagnosed with any issues yet. The dealer has provided me with a rental vehicle...in which now I'm paying for gas. Reading through these other comments...who knows how long it will be to get my vehicle back, yet I'm still making my payments...this isn't
The ICCU broke and the associated fuse blew. The car would only go about 25 mph. It told me to stop driving. The car was taken to the dealer for ICCU and fuse replacement. It said check electric vehicle system, then stop vehicle and check power supply.
My vehicle was fully charged. About 1 mile after leaving my house, I received a warning message on my display (vehicle electrical system error or similar). Shortly after I received another message that power was reduced, then finally, "stop driving". I pulled into the nearest driveway and called roadside assistance. At that point, the vehicle was COMPLETELY dead. No lights or power whatsoever. I could not activate the car to shift into neutral. I had my vehicle towed to the dealership. They said it was due to a faulty ICCU and fuse. After about a week they were able to replace the ICCU, fuse and update the software.
My 2022 Ioniq 5 RWD died in my driveway in late February after first showing a "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning and limiting the vehicle's speed to 22mph while returning home from a short errand. I was initially able to at least turn the vehicle on, but the vehicle was completely non-responsive within two hours of returning home. If we had been traveling on the highway and/or far from home, we would have been in potential danger due to the low maximum speed and could have been stranded with a non-functioning vehicle due to the complete loss of power shortly after the initial incident. I ended up needing to have the vehicle towed to a dealership roughly 25 miles from my home. I was able to obtain a DTC before the vehicle died: (P1A90(96) [0x1A9096] Status: Test failed, Test failed (current drive cycle), Pending, Confirmed, Test failed since last DTC clear, Warning indicator requested). Since other Ioniq 5 owners have reported a similar problem, I suspected the problem to be a failed ICCU, and the dealership that is repairing the vehicle subsequently confirmed ICCU failure to be the problem. For reference, I had the ICCU software update installed in November of 2023.
I was driving on the freeway on Jan 17 when I heard a pop and then the electrical warning system on the car lit up. I lost power to the car and was only able to accelerate minimally. I turned on my hazard lights and was able to get to the shoulder of the freeway and fortunately was close to an exit and was able to exit the freeway. It was towed to a dealership and I was told there was a problem with the ICCU.
I started the car, and saw a "Check Electric Vehicle system" alert on the dashboard, and began driving. I was not far from my home, when I saw several messages saying "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply" - and the car began slowing and becoming unresponsive while I was in traffic. With my wife and infant son in the car, and being less than I mile from my home I was able to proceed cautiously and make it there. This is likely a known flaw in the integrated charge control unit of this model, which was subject to a voluntary service bulletin put out by Hyundai. I took care of the recommended service and firmware update in September 2023, but it did not prevent this electrical system failure - the service bulletin should have advised replacement instead of putting my family in danger without any warning.
Feared ICCU leaving us stranded after reading so many reported failures, took car to dealership where they inspected and did some ineffective software update, few weeks later experience EV warning light and sudden loss of power, car wont go more than 25 so we parked and were effectively stranded. Dealer suspects ICCU....great. exactly what we wasted time trying to prevent. A KNOWN PREDICATABLE PROBLEM IS CALLED A DEFECT!!!!!!
The vehicle show an error message relating to the electrical system, refused to go over 24 mph for a short time, then went completely dark with no control and wheel locked. Dealer says ICCU + fuse is at fault, but there is no date for a new part. Vehicle is undriveable until new part comes in.
While driving on the highway on 8/12 at around 4pm, with another passenger, doing approximately 65 MPH I received a "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning on my dashboard. The car showed no prior warnings, no other lights were on. MyHyundai app was also showing no diagnostic issues with the car. The car battery was showing a 77% charge at the time. I swerved on to the shoulder, putting myself in danger as this is a really busy highway. I checked the car and could not find anything wrong. Hyundai had not contacted me regarding any recalls. I decided to keep driving to see if I could make it home to diagnose the issue. I made it another 20 minutes and as I was about to exit the highway at around 60MPH the car completely slowed down to 20MPH suddenly, and I was forced to swerve onto the shoulder once again. The car would not accelerate past 20 MPH. Fearing an accident, I called a tow truck and had the car towed back to my house. There were no warnings lights/signs prior to this event. The car completely slowed down from 60-65MPH to 20MPH in the middle of the highway and I was forced to make an emergency stop putting myself and my passenger at risk. The car was brought to the dealership on 8/14 which is the first time I was alerted that there had been a recall on my car and that the ICCU would need replacement. At no point did Hyundai ever contact me via email, text, call, or mail alerting me there was a recall prior to this scary experience. This is gross negligence on the part of Hyundai, as my vehicle could have been rear ended and caused a major accident on the highway.
Vehicle suddenly had no power on the highway. Error messages said to check the power supply. Prior to this there were error messages to stop the vehicle and check the power supply. Car would not drive more than 20mph. Car then died on the highway without any power when attempting to drive to the dealer. Problem was reproduced and confirmed by the dealer to be a faulty ICCU.
When in motion, the “EV Start Stop”button is still allowed to turn off the vehicle if accidentally pressed. This happened to me while on the highway and moving about 15-20 MPH. The vehicle suddenly lose power and wouldn’t accelerate. I could not move the vehicle, without hitting the EV Start Stop button several times.
Charge port on vehicle overheats when charging on AC charger and stops charging. Anything above 32 amps. The car is supposed to handle 48 amps.
When starting the vehicle I received an error that said "Check Electric Vehicle System". The vehicle seemed to be working fine at slow speeds in the parking lot at work. When I exited onto a city street I realized I had lost normal acceleration and could not go above 25mph. I pulled into a parking lot and turned the car off and on to see if the error cleared. It did not. Also received an additional error stating " Stop vehicle and check power supply". At that point I called roadside assistance for a tow. The vehicle is now at my local Hyundai dealership. Their service dept has stated they will take a look at it in 7-10 days most likely.
Recently - my car has been encountering an issue and it has been slowly getting worse and worse. I have a 40 amp Level 2 charger I frequently use to charge my car. I first noticed it a few weeks ago, where my car seemingly stopped charging for no reason. I brushed it off, then unplugged it + plugged it back in and the rest of the session went fine. Lately, as temps have been rising I noticed the car failing charging sessions one, or two times per day. After doing some research, it turns out i’m far from the only one having this issue. Many other others have been experiencing the same issue as I, and the same degradation. Some people who were initially able to charge their car at 11kw, are now only to charge around 5kw, otherwise the cars onboard AC charger gets too hot and ends the charging session. I have started to see my car degrade as well, as I have had to lower my charge rate to 32a. I have tested out Level 2 AC charging on other chargers as well to rule out my charger being the problem, and it happens on them too unfortunately. To combat this AC charger overheating issue, Hyundai has released a TSB number 23-EV-003H. Unfortunately, the only thing this TSB does is kneecap the cars ability to level 2 charge at a decent rate. After the TSB is applied, once the car detects an overheating onboard AC charger, it will throttle the AC charge rate all the way down to around 5kw. This is unacceptable, when owners of the Ioniq 5 and 6 were promised a vehicle that is able to do 11kw AC charging, or as claimed on Hyundais website, a Level 2 charge from 10-100 in 6 hours and 43 minutes. With my car throttled to 32 amps, it doesn’t charge nearly as fast adding hours onto the total time required to charge. This is an issue for me because I do not have a place to come home to every single night to charge my car, i’m only able to stop by the charger momentarily which means securing as much energy as fast as possible through Level 2 charging is very important to me.
My vehicle began having charge failures at 13k miles. It went from working fine to not charging at all. The dealership has told me it is an ICCU issue and must be replaced. The ICCU is on back order with mo eta. I am left without a vehicle and no compensation.
The car (2022 Ioniq 5, an EV) lost power while driving. There was warning at the same time stating that the car is losing power and need to stop for safety. Minutes later the car completely lost power and can not be turned on. The car has to be towed to Hyundai dealer. It has been 2 months and 2 weeks and the car is till in Hyundai dealer's lot without being repaired. We were told by the dealer a control unit need to be replaced and it has to be shipped from Korean.
Made an attempt to start the vehicle and noticed two messages on the dash as follows 1. "12V battery Voltage Battery Low" 2. "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply" Attempted to put the vehicle in drive. The vehicle would not engage in drive mode. Shut the vehicle off and made a second attempt to restart the vehicle. This time the vehicle did not start. Had the vehicle towed to a local Hyundai dealer. Hyundai dealer took 2 weeks to diagnose the problem. Was advised by the dealer that the ICCU module needed to be replaced along with fuses, and coolant. Also noticed vehicle having slow acceleration at times after charging. Also notice a weird noise on right rear passenger side of the vehicle sounding like fluid pumping at times. Vehicle has been at the dealer for 27 days and still not repaired
Another ICCU / fuse failure......At 17,000 miles, I heard a popping sound and the Check Electrical System" warning came up on the dash. I pulled over and checked the menus on screen but could not find any way to check my electrical system. I pulled back on the road and within a mile the dash displayed a message to "Stop Vehicle.....speed was reduced to about 20 mph and I limped a few hundred yards to my office. Called 4 dealers and each told me they were aware of the issue but already had a number of Ioniq 5's in their service lot but estimated anywhere from 4-8 weeks to "look at it". I found 1 dealer nearby willing to take the car and look at it within a week. Praying Hyundai recognizes this problem and issues a recall soon.
Level 2 charging fails on warm days if charging above 9kw. I am unable to charge my car on days above 80-90 degrees using my 9.6kw (40 amp) Level 2 charger, as the cars internal will get so hot to the point where it overheats, and force stops charging. Occasionally, I will come back to my car while charging and find it's charging at a much lower speed then it should be. Hyundai claims to have a TSB to fix this issue, but it only neuters the cars charging ability, it doesn't actually fix the ability of the car to charge at 40 or 48 amps on a warm way.
I turned on the car and immediately got a "check electric vehicle system" error, and then shortly after a "stop vehicle and check power supply" error. I located a nearby dealership to diagnose and repair the vehicle, and called a tow truck to take it there. My car is parked in a garage in an alley. After the tow truck arrives in the alley, I turn on the car and get the same errors, and pull into the alley. As I'm pulling into the alley, the car start behaving very eratically, not responding well to the accelerator or steering wheel, and then within a couple minutes the display goes blank, completely black, with some white glitchy pixels periodically. Thankfully, I had already put the car into neutral at this point so the car could be pulled onto the flatbed tow truck. Once the displays stopped working, the car was completely unresponsive. I was unable to lock or unlock doors by using physical buttons on doors or remote buttons on my key. The power trunk lift gate would not open. In the world of cell-phones, they would say my car was "bricked." Completely unresponsive to any input, and the display still black with occasional white glitching flashing across display. The dealership's diagnostics was that there was a malfunction in the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU). They replaced the ICCU and the 12 volt battery and I received the car back from the dealership. Everything seems fully operational again.
Ioniq 5 continuously fails to complete charging when on level-2 EVSE. Charging port and plug feel extremely warm to the touch, even in cool ambient weather. Multiple UL-listed charge cables yield similar results, while working perfectly well with other EVs.
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 advertises quick charging via level 2 (240v) supporting nearly 10 amps. Hyundai has acknowledged by issuing a TSB this year that the charging port overheats at high amperage and causes charging to cease before the battery reaches the intended state of charge. The TSB addresses the issue by slowing the rate of charge substantially when the port overheats. As a result, owners are unable to "refuel (charge)" the vehicle at the advertised rates. In addition to the overheating charge port posing a potential hazard, the result is that an uninformed owner may not have necessary charge to reach their destination.
I was driving and could go no faster than 30 mph. I was very close to a dealership (a few blocks) and was able to make it there before the entire car turned off. An electrical error displayed on the dashboard before it shut down.
My partner was driving my car on Tuesday, May 23, 2023 and received a "Check Electrical Vehicle System" warning. Within 30 minutes of receiving that warning, the maximum speed on the car was throttled to 20 mph and shortly after that, the car stopped working entirely. Thankfully, my partner was on a residential street when all this occurred and was able to move to safety; however, had any of this happened in a highway driving scenario, the results could have been catastrophic. My car was towed to a dealership that same evening and it has been with the service department since then. The two parts on backorder they are waiting on on the ICCU Assembly and a High Voltage Fuse. Upon searching for other Hyundai IONIQ 5 owners with similar issues, various internet forums are filled with reports of similar things happening. At this point, I have been told this part is on backorder for potentially up to 6-9 months and after repeated calls with the dealership and the corporate office, Hyundai has not acknowledged the extent of this issue, the potential safety concerns, nor offered any relief for being without my, basically brand new, car for the remainder of this year.
On 24 May 2023, I heard a "pop" sound when starting my Ioniq5 and immediately received warnings directing me to stop the vehicle and check the battery system. The car was taken to the dealer on the same day and is still out of service. The dealer notified me that the problem is due to an "ICCU" issue and that parts are backordered and they do not have an estimated date for the receipt of parts or repair.
I received a warning on my dashboard while driving "Check electric vehicle system". A few minutes later I received the message "Stop vehicle and check power supply". My car would not go faster than 20 MPH, and I had it towed to the dealership. They said it was an ICCU issue and the part was on nationwide backorder. My car has been at the dealership for 41 days.
This is an electric vehicle that features “iPedal” driving, what Hyundai refers to as one-pedal driving. The main safety issue is that when you decelerate using one pedal, which is a fairly aggressive deceleration, the brake lights do not come on unless you lift your foot entirely from the accelerator or apply the brake pedal (which one would rarely do in iPedal mode). Hyundai needs to rethink their concept of operations for how their brake lights should operate. People are at risk of getting rear-ended. I didn’t realize this was how the vehicle operated until I was almost rear-ended today. Please push them to fix this issue.
Started vehicle and heard a loud pop with immediate amber warning to check electrical system with 12 volt battery and EV electrical system warning lights illuminated. While driving to dealerships, vehicle slowed abruptly at Highway speed and warning message said to stop vehicle immediately. Towed to dealership with probable bad integrated charging control unit and high voltage fuse blown. Seems to be an issue with many ioniq 5s. Recall this vehicle!
The 12-volt battery that controls everything in the car stopped being recharged by the 800volt battery, eventually causing the car to suddenly lose power and slow to 22 mph on the freeway. I was able to pull over 3 lanes and exit what was fortunately an uncrowded freeway. The car would not exceed 22 mph and soon stopped altogether and could not be moved. The main 800volt battery was at 56% charge, as the 12-volt battery went to 0%. The car was towed to the dealer. After inspection the dealer has confirmed that the ICCU system has failed and must be replaced, with a long back order and still no delivery date after 5 weeks. There were warning messages that appeared before the vehicle lost power, saying to check the battery electrical system. There should have been a warning that said “stop driving immediately as the electrical system is failing, and the car may stop even though the main battery is still well charged.”
While driving vehicle, car had sudden and rapid loss of power that resulted in significant decrease in speed. Vehicle was nearly in a rear-end Collision due to sudden drop in speed. The car is currently being inspected by the Hyundai dealership with reported failure of the ICCU.
Likely ICCU failure incapacitated vehicle while in motion on highway. Vehicle decelerated uncontrollably and would not re-accelerate. Shortly thereafter 12v battery warning appeared and vehicle was no longer operable. Series of warning lights. “check electric vehicle system” upon car starting, “Stop vehicle and check power supply” shortly after starting drive, "12v battery very low" immediately before vehicle went completely dead.
A few minutes into my drive I heard a loud POP from under the rear seat and then an orange EV system warning message flashed on the display. The vehicle slowed down and I couldn’t maintain speed above about 25mph. Shortly after the first orange alert, the red “Stop vehicle and check power supply” message popped up on the screen along with an emergency warning sound. The vehicle was towed by Hyundai Roadside Assistance to the nearest certified dealer, which took 1 week to diagnose the car. They just confirmed it was an ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failure and would require a replacement ICCU and high voltage fuse, which are on backorder with no definitive delivery date.
On 4/24/23, without an prior warning vehicle suddenly became undrivable. Received message: "Stop vehicle and check power supply". Car could lim along < 25mph for short distances. This condition along with indifferent Hyundai roadside assist left me stranded out of state for 5 hours before telling me to find my own way to tow the car. Car is at dealership with a diagnosed ICCU/ICCU fuse issue. To date I am being told that the parts are on back order for 2-3 weeks. Based upon online posts by others with this issue, this is not a realistic expectation. To date, Hyundai has yet to offer substitute transporation, relief from monthly paments, and reimbursement of all expenses incurred as a result of the loss of this vehicle.
Suddenly whilst driving, I heard a soft "pop" and emergency alert sound and message were displayed. Car lost almost all power, but was able to move forward at 12mph to park in a safe place. Car became fully inoperable and required a flatbed tow to dealership. Was diagnosed as an ICCU problem (associated with both 12v battery failure and possible bluetooth related battery drain). Car has been in shop for 6 weeks, waiting on parts. No ETA from Hyundai. If this had occurred 3 minutes later I would have been driving at high speed on the interstate in morning commute traffic. Prior to the "pop" there was no warnings or errors or problems - car worked perfectly.
On March/17/2023 @24962 miles Integrated Charge Control Unit failure + 30 AMP Fuse. Hyundai Corporate said parts back order May---June/2023 time frame. 3 inch orange circle came up on my dash with red triangle saying PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY! I was two blocks from dealership and with no problems drive to the service advisor where it died in front of them. Service advisor guessed that the pop I heard just before the circle appeared was the fuse and I drove in on the 12volt battery. I am in the Buy Back process with Hyundai Corporate Case#21170992
After a few minutes of driving, the vehicle presented a warning "Check Electric Vehicle System" and then got really slow. We were able to limp back home, where it is now parked. Hyundai has not had availability to diagnose the issue.
I was driving to my parents house when suddenly a message popped up on my driver screen saying that the electrical system has a problem. Driving a little more to reach my parents house and it starts saying to stop and check power supply. We ended up making it to my parents house and decided that it was unsafe to drive anymore with the error message going off. I called a tow truck to tow it back to our dealership in Fremont. When the tow came, I thought we could drive it on the bed but turns out the vehicle wouldn't start. We jumped the 12V battery and found that we could put it in neutral and somewhat drive it until it drained the external battery used to jump the 12V battery. With the car stuck halfway on the bed, we managed to put it in neutral and pull the car up using the tow's harness. Took it to the dealer and after a few days they said a fuse blew and that something called the ICCU was bad and needed to be replaced.
We were driving vehicle on a neighborhood street with a speed limit of 45 miles per hour. When we got a "High voltage fault warning" from the car. I continued to drive about 10 second more and got a second warning. A different series of warnings appeared the last one being "please pull over and check your electrical system". We pulled into a neighborhood street, turned off the car. We decided to try to make it home which was less than 1/2 mile. Once I restarted the car, both messages cycled through the dashboard. Then the car lost the ability to accelerate past 25 miles per hour, no matter how much I stepped on the throttle.
The car suddenly cut speed to 20mph while traveling at around 40mph. No matter how hard I pressed on the accelerator, it did not go over over 20mph. The dashboard also said speed limited to 20mph. I had to pull over on the side of the road. Turn off the ignition. Then turned it back on. Then the car resumed to operate as normal. Luckily there were no other cars around so I could safely pull over. This could had been disastrous if it cuts speed again when I’m driving at 65mph on a busy freeway. I feel unsafe operating this vehicle because I’m afraid this will happen again in the near future.
The car randomly stops charging when plugged into either of my Level 2 home Juicebox 40 chargers before it reaches capacity, generally after adding another 4-8% to the battery. It was impossible for me to fully charge the car without plugging it in multiple times. The service people including the EV specialist said they hadn’t heard of this problem, and it was probably due to my charging unit at home. See the attached service and repair invoice . This was not true It is apparently a well-known defect in the Hyundai and Genesis cars using this platform and Hyundai is aware of the issue. it is not a problem with my charger. It happens whether it is hot or cold and generally when it is cooler as we only charge the car at night. Please note the following: 1.Saying this was a unique isolated problem was NOT accurate as this is a problem with many Hyundai and Genesis cars on this battery/charging platform. The Hyundai forums are full of these accounts, and they occur with all different types of chargers. For instance, see: a.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3eh0BTSdng b.https://www.reddit.com/r/Ioniq5/comments/wrilke/ioniq_5_stops_charging_randomly_on_level_2_any/ c.https://www.ioniqforum.com/threads/charging-issues.42357/ d.https://www.kiaevforums.com/threads/charging-problem-automatically-stops-charging-at-home-the-charging-for-ev6-failed-please-check-vehicle.3659/page-12 3.The Ioniq 5 charges fine on level 3 superchargers 4.I spoke to Juicebox and they said other Ioniq 5 owners have reported the same problem in fact before I even mentioned the car I had, when I mentioned the problems, the technical advisor said, “Do you have an Ioniq 5?” He showed me downloaded graphs that show that the Ioniq 5 halts charges prior to being fully charged even though the charger is delivering power to the car. 5. I called Hyundai and they said they would look into this, but other people have received the same response, but nothing has been done
