While charging at a level 2 charger (6 kW) the car stop charging at 61% for no apparent reason. I was unable to restart charging. Within 2-3 minutes of starting the car and driving, received a warning to “check the vehicle electrical system” and then within another minute or two, another warning to “stop vehicle and check power supply.” I was traveling under 20 mph the entire time.
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.
On November 29 2025 my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 with 49000 miles was warming up in the driveway. I heard a pop sound from the back seat like a soda can being opened (or a fuse blowing). Immediately afterwards warning lights appeared on the dash saying "Check Electrical System." The vehicle lost power to accelerate and could not be driven effectively. After a few moments, another error saying "Power is Limited" appeared. This could have happened on the roadway which would have been hazardous to myself and other drivers. The car is scheduled to be diagnosed next week by Simmons Rockwell Hyundai in Elmira, NY. These symptoms are similar to the hundreds of other reports of ICCU failures in this car and similar models. On Sept 10, 2025 the car was previously issued software updates to the ICCU software , which were required under NHTSA Recall Number 24V868000. If this problem is proven to be an ICCU failure, the experience with this car is an example of the 2025 software update failing to prevent the ICCU Failure. I request swift action from the NHTSA to compel Hyundai to implement a permanent fix for my vehicle and all other afflicted models in order to make Americas roadways safe again. Until then, everyone should be extra careful when driving behind a Hyundai Ioniq, 5 because it is at risk of dying and coming to a complete stop at any moment. Hyundai is a large corporation and has the resources and technology to fix this, but they have not done so, despite there being more than 300 complaints to the NHTSA about these cars at the time of this writing.
Check Vehicle Electric System warming shows up on dashboard, then vehicles enters turtle mode and then cuts power shortly with violent jerking of the vehicle. Shortly after, all system shuts down, 12V is said to be weak and car cannot move.
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 ICCU (Integrated Charge Control Unit) failed. The car was in a Hyundai dealer repair shop on November 18, 2025, for an unrelated regular maintenance procedure when (i) the technician noticed a logged ICCU error code generated sometime prior to the shop visit and (ii) after the technician cleared that prior error a second new ICCU error code was generated. The shop replaced the defective ICCU. This car had been serviced on prior occasions to install updated ICCU software, most recently as part of NHTSA's recall 24V868000 of November 18, 2024 (also known as Hyundai Safety Recall 272), intended to eliminate such ICCU failures. Installation of that software as the remedy for recall 24V868000 clearly did not prevent the very ICCU failure it was intended to guard against. Please note also that it is common knowledge (as disseminated on various Ioniq 5 forums and Reddit groups) that large numbers of later Ioniq 5 vehicles with newer VINs not included in recall 24V868000, i.e., from model year 2025 onward, have also suffered from these failures despite being initially placed into service with the updated ICCU software, as well as many other pre-2025 remedied vehicles. The Hyundai ICCU software currently in operation on both remedied cars from recall 24V868000 as well as newer cars not subject to that recall is clearly entirely ineffective as a solution to this very serious safety issue. I strongly urge NHTSA to (i) declare the existing ICCU software to be an ineffective remedy for recall 24V868000, (ii) include all Hyundai Ioniq 5 cars for all model years, whether running current ICCU software or not, to be part of the group of unremedied and unsafe vehicles, and (iii) extend recall 24V868000 until such time as Hyundai can actually demonstrate that an effective remedy exists and is being made available to all Ioniq 5 vehicles.
Carr went into limp mode and wouldn’t drive more than approximately 10 mph in traffic. Once I was able to pull over and reset the ignition button, the car seems to be operating normally.
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.
I am submitting an update to my existing complaint regarding the ICCU safety recall on my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5. Since my original submission, my vehicle has been at authorized Hyundai dealerships since July 2025 and remained undiagnosed and unrepaired for over three months. During this time, I received inconsistent and misleading information from both Hyundai corporate and the dealerships regarding the status of the recall repair, as documented via emails, texts, and recorded calls. On 10/31/2025, the dealership informed me that the issue may involve a floor harness/wiring problem and it is out of warranty; however, this appears related to the ICCU safety recall, and Hyundai has not provided a firm timeline for repair. Hyundai’s delay has caused significant inconvenience, as I have been without my vehicle while continuing to make car payments and insurance payments, and arranging temporary transportation. Additionally, Hyundai and the dealerships provided multiple assurances that the vehicle was being diagnosed and repaired, which were later contradicted, reflecting misleading and deceptive practices. I request that NHTSA consider this update as part of my ongoing complaint and investigate Hyundai’s failure to provide timely and adequate recall service, as well as the misinformation surrounding this safety recall.
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.
The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) in my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq has not been diagnosed or repaired despite being at the dealership for 3 months for a safety recall. The ICCU controls the vehicle’s electrical and charging systems, and a malfunction could prevent the vehicle from charging or operating properly, creating a risk of loss of propulsion while driving. Two different Hyundai dealers have had the vehicle since July 11, 2025, but no diagnosis or repair has been completed. I have escalated the issue to Hyundai Corporate, but there has been no resolution or communication of a timeline. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. No warning lamps or messages were reported prior to the dealer receiving the vehicle, as the car was delivered specifically for the recall repair. Due to this unresolved recall, I have been without my vehicle for 3 months, which has caused significant hardship and forced me to rent a vehicle temporarily. I was given a loaner vehicle eventually but this vehicle is not comparable to my ioniq5. Both dealer's gave excuses for the lack of diagnosing and repairs, ranging from "technician is on jurty duty" or "the climate is too hot outside to look at it."
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.
Vehicle Information: Year/Make/Model: 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SE AWD VIN: [XXX] Mileage at issue onset: ~18,000–22,000 miles Purchase date: April 2022 Ownership type: Purchased new, paid in full Component Affected: Electrical System → Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) / Charging System Problem Description: I am reporting a persistent and unresolved charging system failure involving the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) in my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5. This defect has rendered the vehicle unreliable and currently inoperable, leaving me without safe transportation for myself and my infant child. Over the past year, I’ve brought the vehicle to the dealership more than 10 times, including 6 visits in just the last 3 months, due to charging issues that were supposed to be addressed via multiple recall campaigns (e.g., Campaigns 228, 997, 9A1, 9B5, 272, TCP). Despite these attempted software and firmware updates, the issue persists and culminated in a total failure to charge in March 2025. The dealership confirmed ICCU failure again, but advised that the part is on indefinite backorder, with no timeline for repair or safe operation. This defect is dangerous, particularly as it can result in loss of power and stranding, with potential risks to driver and passenger safety. Hyundai is aware of this widespread issue among Ioniq 5 owners but has not issued a permanent fix or offered viable alternatives to affected consumers. Hyundai denied my Lemon Law claim despite substantial repair documentation and admitted ICCU defects. I have filed with the BBB Auto Line and IL Attorney General. I’m now preparing for legal action. This is not just a consumer issue — it’s a national electric vehicle safety issue involving Hyundai’s inability to resolve a known, system-wide defect in a core safety component. Attachments: Available upon request: repair invoices, dealer assessments, Hyundai’s denial letter, lemon law filings.

The vehicle has had 2 12V battery replacements and 2 ICCU failures in about 20 months and just 12,000 miles of ownership with over 100 combined days out of service for repairs.
ICCU failure preventing car from AC charging. In shop 25 days now but part not available and not given estimated repair time. Car was bought new and has 24,600 miles on it.
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.
1) This is the second occurrence of this issue within the past 12 months. While driving, my EV displayed various blinking lights and a “Check EV Connection” message, followed by a “12v Battery Critical” warning. The entire system began shutting down in the middle of the road. I managed to pull over before the car completely shut off. 2) This malfunction posed a significant safety risk to me and others. The rapid deceleration and uncertainty of an imminent shutdown almost caused an accident, either from other vehicles crashing into me or from my inability to stop in time, potentially hitting another car. I have faced this life-threatening situation twice within a year due to the same issue. 3) The problem was confirmed by my dealership less than a year ago, and my car is currently being towed back to the dealership for re-inspection of the same issue. 4) The vehicle and its components have not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or other parties for the current situation. However, the manufacturer issued a recall for this problem last year AFTER my initial report, incident, and repair. They claimed to have fixed the faulty issue or replaced the necessary parts, when my vehicle was repaired less than 12 months ago. Despite this, I am experiencing the same critical problem again. 5) During the incident, my entire panel started blinking with a “Check EV Connection” message, followed by a red warning sign indicating a 12v Battery Critical Failure warning. The system then went black, and the panel continued to blink white and black consistently while parked. The car cannot be started or moved.
Turning into my driveway one evening, the car displayed the "Check Electric Vehicle System" alert on dash. The following morning while backing out of the driveway to wait for a tow, the alert changed to "Stop vehicle and check power supply". Got car towed to dealer, and after diagnosing, confirmed that ICCU failed. Car has been at the dealer for almost 2 weeks at this point, and the part is still back-ordered with no ETA, according to the service advisor I have been working with.
I had the most recent recall (code 702 I believe) done on January 13th. I believe the recall was an NHTSA required recall and after the software update that was part of the recall my car will no longer charge. It has been with the dealer since January 15th with no resolution in sight. The software update was I believe the 4th such update intended to prevent a part called an ICCU from failing. It took 4 business days but the dealer Hyundai of Roseville confirmed the ICCU needs to be replaced and they don’t have an ETA on when the part will be shipped. Online I have seen reports of the same thing happening to others and the ICCU repair process taking 1-2 months.
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).
The vehicle has no power whatsoever. Upon approaching the vehicle, it did not unlock. I used the physical key to open the drivers door. I then tried starting the vehicle only to have the gauge and center display flashing on and off with a red warning That the 12v was dead, to pull over and top immediately then the displays turned off. There are no lights or power to the vehicle no whatsoever. It cannot turn on any of the interior lights or even power door locks. This means only the front doors can be opened or locked and the vehicle will obviously not move. The 12v battery system has been a continuing issue with the vehicle. It has been repaired and the subject of several recalls during my short ownership and is still a problem. Due to a blizzard, I have been unable to have the vehicle taken to the dealership and have been without transportation for 3 days already with no clear resolution from Hyundai.
The ICCU on my Ioniq 5 failed without any warning from the car or mobile app. All recalls were performed on the vehicle prior to it failing. I was unable to charge the vehicle on level 1 or level 2 charging. The dealership replaced both the ICCU and fuse on the vehicle.
On [XXX], I was driving my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL when all of a sudden the car started beeping and displaying a 12V battery voltage low. Stop safely message. I was traveling on [XXX] in the Las Vegas area and the car all of a sudden came shut off seconds later. This presented a very dangerous situation with other vehicles traveling at 65+ mph and the vehicle shutting off. I was able to use a portable power jump starting pack to at least get the car restarted and pulled off the side of the highway. Even after jump starting the vehicle, it would only stay running for a minute before shutting off again. The is the second time in 2 months that my car has lost power. The dealer, ABC Hyundai in Las Vegas did a ICCU recall and said that would solve the problems. The problem has not been resolved and I do not feel this is a safe vehicle to drive.

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.
On Saturday, [XXX], at approximately [XXX], I drove my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 north on [XXX] . The car was operating normally. I stopped at the red light at the corner of [XXX] and noticed a large red circle with a "Check electrical system" warning on the driver's display screen. When the traffic light turned green, I pressed the accelerator pedal, and the car did not move. I looked at the "Park, Neutral, Reverse, Drive" shifter. The "P" was lit up, indicating the car was in "Park." I attempted to switch to "Drive," and the status indicator remained in "P." I then pushed the "EV START STOP" switch to see if I could cycle the vehicle off and then back on to clear the problem. The switch had no effect. [XXX] is a busy four-lane, undivided street near the University of Colorado at Boulder campus. I selected the hazard flashers and called 911 to alert the Boulder Police Department that I was in a car that was immobilized in the middle of the right-hand northbound lane. Cars had to swerve to avoid me. The Police Department dispatched a vehicle that arrived 10 minutes later, pulled up behind me, and put its flashing lights on to alert traffic. While waiting for the tow truck, I received another alert on the driver's display that informed me that the 12-volt battery was nearly completely discharged, and I had 10 minutes of power left. The warning counted the remaining minutes to 0, and the displays shut down. From the first warning message to the shutdown, I could not turn the car system off or shift the car out of the park. The tow company had to put dollies under the rear wheels of the Ioniq 5 and lift the front end off the ground to tow the vehicle, as all four wheels were locked. The car was towed to Crossroads Hyundai in Loveland, Colorado. It had just been serviced to address all the recall issues, including the ICCU software update. The car has approximately 16,000 miles on it. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
A warning to check electrical system was displayed. The battery did not have sufficient charge to drive it to a dealer so I tried to charge and the car would not charge past 60%. I was able to drive the car to the dealer where they diagnosed a failed EV battery. Prior to the failure the car would use battery percentage much faster than it should have. For example, a fifteen mile drive would deplete the battery 25 miles. The dealer still has the car waiting to replace the battery.
The Integrated Charging Control Unit failed. My vehicle would not accept a level one or level two charge. You would have to remove the rear seats to inspect. No one’s safety was put at risk. The problem has been confirmed by a dealer. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. No warning lamps appeared at all.
I was charging my car at home like I usually do and around 2am I received an alert on my Bluelink app that a charging alarm was detected. I saw that the breaker for my charger had tripped which it had never done before. I reset the breaker and tried to restart charging but was not successful. I turned on the car and immediately got the battery and EV warning lights telling me to stop the vehicle.

I turned on the car and immediately got the battery and EV warning lights telling me to stop the vehicle. I had the vehicle towed to my local dealer and they determined it was the ICCU issue that has affected many Ioniq 5s. I had the software update done that was part of campaign [XXX] but it obviously didn’t work. It took a week to get a new ICCU fuse in and they also updated the software again in accordance with recall [XXX]. I am leery about another software fix solving this problem for good.

Driving down I95 at 75mph. Heard loud "thunk" and car lost both power and brakes. Warning lights on the dashboard said to check brake system. I was unable to pull onto the shoulder due to construction barricades in place. The car slowed to 10mph and continued until I was able to pull over onto the shoulder. This was very dangerous given the highway traffic speeds, construction zone with limited emergency pull over space, and due to it being night time. Turning it off and on again restored power but it happened 4 more times before I was able to make it to an exit. This seems to be a common issue with this model. I have already performed the ICCU recall that was supposed to address this
A warning popped up "Check electric vehicle system", then a few minutes later an error popup appeared "stop vehicle and check power supply" and the car would no longer go above 27 mph.
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 car gave an warnings of “Check Electric Vehicle System@ and started slowing down in the middleman of the road. I could have been easily rear ended or got into a serious injury. After googling, it seems almost all if not most of ioniq 5 are having this issue after certain mileage
Every so often when I am driving on the highway, the car just looses power and I may catch a message that flashes on my display, "Emergency Braking". The event last no longer than about a second. When this phantom braking happens, so far, it has not been so severe to feel dangerous just unsettling!
The vehicle lost traction power, failed to respond to presses to the accelerator and coasted to a stop. It gave no indication on the dash that there were any problems. Putting the car in park and then selecting drive again restored traction power and the car responded to pressing of the accelerator pedal. The car was not turned off and back on. During the incident: - The brakes, steering, air conditioning, radio and other electrical equipment continued to operate normally. - The car was configured for "Level 2" regen braking, but during the incident, when all pressure was removed from the accelerator pedal, the car did not "feel" like it slowed as normally did during Level 2 regen when there is no application of the accelerator. - The car was configured for "ECO" mode. The drive mode was switched to Normal and Sport during the incident but it had no effect. - The Power/Charge gauge on the dash neither indicated Power when the accelerator was pressed nor indicated Charge when coasting (as would be expected for Level 2 regen) or when the brake pedal was pressed. Car Information: - The car had about 75% charge and reported about ~260 miles of range. - The manufacturers app has not reported any "DTC" codes. - The car has no open recalls at this time. - Service Campaign 997 was completed August 23rd at dealer. - Service Campaign 9A1 was completed August 23rd at dealer. Additional Information: - A previous event similar to the above described event happened on August 21st where the vehicle lost traction power but gave no indication that anything was wrong. - Reported it to the dealer, but they were unable to find anything wrong or recreate the problem. - They applied the ICCU software update.
While driving at highway speeds, there was a loud pop and the display showed "reduce power mode". We had to improvise a stopping place despite being far from home. There was no warning or issues beforehand. This incident was risky because of the loss of power while on a high speed thoroughfare and limited stopping options. The vehicle required a jump to move onto tow truck to take to dealership, where it has remained for two weeks without an estimate for repair. The symptoms.seem consistent with ICCU failure.
Check electric charge error displayed, alarm sounding, loss of power to the vehicle while driving (limp mode).
Lost power while driving
ICCU failure. The car dashboard display alert "Stop vehicle and check power supply" While trying to drive to the nearest dealership to inspect the alert, the car was limiting to 25mph, and eventually, the car died completely.
When driving for a distance at higher speeds, power will suddenly drop to the zero point btw acceleration and regeneration. You can feel the car start to drag as the power drops. If you press hard on the accelerator to stop it from slowing, it will suddenly jump forward. This has happened now on several long trips where I am constatly fighting with the car to keep it powered and not slipping into the zero zone. When it leaps forward the lane assist will also grab control and make it difficult to control the car. The car also stops slowing consistently when I take my foot off the accelerator and will move/ jump forward more than is typical for an EV instead of slowing the way an EV should as it regenerates. This all happened twice previously on a long trip and today constantly during a three hour drive. Does not feel safe!
1.We purchased the vehicle (Hyundai Ioniq 5, 2022 Model) on MAY 20, 2022. 2.The vehicle was acceptable until it started to fail on us while we were on the road, and soon after the vehicle crawled home at limited power and came to a stop, it would no longer even turn on. 3.Then started our nightmare with Hyundai USA. We called the service department and they told us, based on our brief description of what happened, that our vehicle would be unsafe to drive a single more mile (which was impossible anyhow because it wouldn’t turn on), and to tow our vehicle to Hyundai dealership in Fayetteville, AR for repair on DECEMBER 27, 2022 at our own expense. 4. From what Hyundai, Fayetteville, AR's service engineer named Evan told us, they have replaced the fuse no less than four times and it kept blowing when they went to test the vehicle. After the basic fuse replacement, it caused the problem to become worse, and revealed an ICCU problem, that then revealed acceleration and charging problems, and the initial fuse problem still persisted. Codes kept popping up, and whenever they fixed the current issue, another one would present. Long story short, it turned out the vehicle was experiencing “mass power surges,” issues with the batteries, and displaying codes for reasons they were unsure of, causing the basic fuse replacement to “pop.” They even called in a Hyundai Engineer directly from corporate to try to fix the vehicle, but according to Evan, even he had no idea what was wrong with the vehicle and had left with some data.
The vehicle completely lost power and there was 207 miles left to the charge. The message displayed on the driver's screen read "12V battery voltage low. Stop safely" I had no other choice than to stop since the car suddenly had zero power. The car was towed to Hyundai dealership on 2/15/23 and I have yet to have the vehicle repaired. Hyundai keeps informing me that the part is on order and delayed. I have been waiting a long time for a defective vehicle.
Failed EV drive system. Error messages of electrical problems and shortly went complete dead. 12 volt battery was dead and won't charge. Car was towed to Ideal Hyundai in Fredrick MD. Dealer reported failed ICCU and parts for repair are on back order. Fortunately the failure occurred when pulling away from parking. If I had been at highway speed it could have been disastrous.
Car literally DIED while driving. Went from normal speed to 12mph to 6mph to dead. ICCU failure.
The power gave out on the car and Hyundai refuses to fix it. They said a part needs to ship over and they give very little updates.
Called an ICCU failure. It's the control unit that charges the 12V battery from the high voltage battery. The unit fails blowing the high voltage fuse. Failure of this component causes the vehicle to all but shut down, even while driving. This is known by Hyundai. Others have said this happens at about 12 months and 10,000 miles. My car was 53/54weeks old and had 9,300 miles. This failure of this part may have also caused my AC to stop working. As pressure sensor on the 12V system that was working before the component failed was not working when I received the car back, resulting in another lengthy repair. I had about 0.7 miles warning, a yellow check EV system lit up, then the whole dash lit up saying to pull over immediately. The ICCU was replaced by Hyundai with the "2023 spec" version.
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.”
This vehicle's brake lights do not come on when using regenerative braking. The regenerative braking can bring this car to a complete stop fairly quickly and the brake lights should come on. Several near misses of people almost rear-ending me, and a few got mad enough that I feared a road rage incident. This after only owning the car for 2 weeks.
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.
While driving to work on a 55 MPH road (single lane in each direction) my car faulted with warnings for me to pull over immediately and check my batteries. At the same time, the car's speed dropped quickly to a maximum of 24 MPH, which nearly caused the cars behind me to collide. After pulling over, I was able to limp into a safe area and call a tow truck. The service shop informed me that my Integrated Charge Control Unit and fuse needed to be replaced. I am still waiting for the part to come in (estimated delivery of two months). This issue is not isolated to me; others in social media groups have experienced similar issues with their MY 2022 Ioniq 5. Hyundai is quiet on how widespread the issue is, but given that there is a safety concern when one's auto suddenly slows down while on a highway, I thought it worth reporting.
Started car. Heard a pop. “Check electric vehicle system” appeared on the screen. Hyundai arranged for the car to be towed to the dealer. This is likely the ICCU+Fuse failure that seems to be happening to many owners of the Ioniq 5.
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.
We've owned the car since new, just over one year. The car was performing well one day and my wife went to her evening work. When she returned to her car around 6pm, the car wouldn't respond to the key fob and the door wouldn't open. She was able to open it with a key, but the car wouldn't start. It's a fully electric car and NOTHING lit up or made a sound. The traction battery had ample charge, but she called Hyundai and the car needed a "jump" from a repair vehicle that was called out, much like an ICE car needs the occasional jump...we assumed an interior light was left on, but the car's app didn't inform either of us of any issue prior to this...the same exact scenario repeated itself about one week later and we had the car jumped again and brought to our dealer, Burns Hyundai in Marlton, NJ. They determined that "nothing was wrong" which made no sense to me. My wife picked up the car and approximately one week later, the exact same thing happened again. This time we dropped the car off at the dealer where it's been for nearly one month. With their customer service lacking and information not forthcoming, I had to go to the dealer myself to get some answers. It seems the computer was telling then some codes were coming through about the battery, but nothing more. It didn't need replacing and they couldn't replicate the problem over a period of weeks...There are MANY online reports of this car having 12V battery and ICCU issues. Our dealer has several Ioniq5s awaiting ICCU replacement for the same problem as my car, but they "can't get the part from Hyundai". While our car at times won't start, they aren't seeing that in their shop now, awaiting repairs on cars that apparently die when driving also with 12v battery problems. Our car is a lemon and we intend to retain counsel to assist us in its repair. https://www.theautopian.com/why-everyones-favorite-electric-car-keeps-stranding-its-owners/?fbclid=IwAR3yNgwVKtaGhGPd7HBz79tOV-UI1myLdmyrwDzcOJZfLarsG80b_6NJLpk
The car was driving fine, and an error popped up indicating to pull over and check battery. As I am going to pull over a red flashing indicator pops up saying “pull over and check battery”. As I start to pull over the car speed drops to 25 miles per hour and fully dies as I make it to the side of the road.
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.
Was in the middle of driving when a loud alert sounded and the dashboard showed the error "Stop vehicle and check power supply". The car otherwise behaved normally. I pulled into a parking log, looked at the only thing I knew how to look at (12v battery), confirmed it was still plugged in, and turned the car back on. The error was still there, but now the car wouldn't go over 26mph. I limped home, called a tow truck to take it to the nearest Hyundai that services electric vehicles, and they told me they'd have to replace the ICCU, which is backordered.
Heard a "pop" sound and the car shortly after said "Check EV system." A few minutes later the car beeped loudly said "Stop vehicle and check power supply." A ODB scanner reported a P1A9096 code. This issue makes the vehicle inoperable with little warning.
I got the new update for my car from dealership, didn't know it effect ego mode, it's really lagging any power, need push accelerator all the way down to get any power, danger for left turn, please look into this thanks.
When my IONIQ5 slowly starts and stops while the brake pedal engages or disengages, a noise, something like "click," comes from the rear passenger wheel house. Then, the brakes feel somewhat slippery. I think this has something to do with a transition between the regen brake and the traditional brake. The noise comes up every time I drive. Sometimes, I feel very unsafe because I am worried that the brake system fails.
The contact's father owns a 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact stated that as her father attempted to place the vehicle into reverse(R) while in park(P), the gear shifter failed to operate as needed. As her father exited the vehicle with the gear shifter in the park(P)position, the vehicle accelerated on its own into his garage. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The contact's father was not injured and a police report was not filed. The garage door and pillar were damaged, as well as, the vehicle's driver-side door. The vehicle was initially towed to the dealer where the vehicle was inspected for the failure. The inspection found no defect with the vehicle and claimed that the failure was a result of human error. The dealer then drove the vehicle to a nearby independent collision center where the vehicle was repaired. Nearly two months after the repair, the contact stated that while in the vehicle with her father, the vehicle failed to move out of the reverse(R) position after backing out of the driveway. The contact stated the gear shifter eventually moved after multiple attempts and restarts. The dealer was notified of the failure and the contact later informed her that there was a recall on the vehicle for a shift control unit update(recall number unknown). The contact was instructed to bring the vehicle to the dealer to have the update performed. The contact notified the manufacturer about the failure and was given a case number. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 494. The contact stated that the vehicle accelerated into the door of the garage. Also, Hyundai eventually reimbursed the contact for the costs of repairs.
Mileage: 494
