ICCU Failure, unable to charge the 12v battery despite having all recalls associated with this already done. The error code is DTC P1A9096. The car is unable to drive with this error because it is at risk of shutting down while driving.

Integrated charging control unit ICCU failed and was replaced by dealer. Warning light directed me to immediately pull over and have the car towed to the nearest dealer. Dealer confirmed ICCU failure with Diagnostic trouble code DTC P1A9096. Unknown whether the failed ICCU has been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. Warning lamps and messages appeared immediately upon the ICCU failure.

The car horn malfunctioned. I was not able to warn other drivers I was approaching and they were about to hit me. The component was inspected and replaced over a year ago in May 2024 under the vehicle warranty. No warning lights appeared when it happened.

ICCU failure. EV car flashed battery issues and could not drive. ICCU and 12 volt battery replaced after 10 days in dealership shop. Manufacturer inspected. Prior to issue electric hatchback closed half way then stalled. I drove to the dealership and asked them to check if there was something wrong. They closed the hatch manually and said the 12 volt battery was fine and the computer said something blocked the closure, I left the dealership and made it less than a mile before battery light went off (within 5 minutes of leaving dealership). Made it back to dealership in turtle mode and this time computer said the ICCU failed.

The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failed in November 2024. Instrument panel warning indicated an electrical failure and that the vehicle should be stopped immediately. The Hyundai dealer identified Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P1A9096 and per Service Campaign 997 Technical Service Bulletin 23-01-060H replaced the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU). In December 2024 Recall 272 TSB 24-01-086H software upgrade installed to further address Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failure.

There are 2 horns; a high tone and a low tone. The low tone horn failed, making the horn sound difficult to hear. This same issue has been reported by many Ioniq 6 owners. I scheduled an appt w/ a Hyundai dealer and the defective horn was replaced. This happened when the vehicle had less than 3,000 miles.

The horn on my vehicle is defective after 16000 miles. I am available to take it in for an inspection. I was almost backed into and I had no way of alerting the other driver. This problem has not been reproduced by my local dealership but it has been at other national and international dealerships per forums. I am unsure if this component has been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance company, etc. This problem was random without warning which makes this even more of a safety concern since I had no clue this was defective until I actually had to use it.

Shortly after the ICCU recall was repaired I received numerous electrical system warnings on my Hyundai Ioniq 6 (2023, SE model). The dealership identified the problem to be the Battery Management System needed a complete replacement would you take 1-2 weeks. When you factor in three different ICCU service appointments (two SW updates and full replacement) the BMS issue was the fourth electrical / battery issue in the 16 months I've owned the vehicle. Purchased Sept 20, 2023 and have 40k miles.

I have a 2023 Ioniq 5 that was purchased in June, 2023 and an 2023 Ioniq 6 that was purchased in April, 2023. I had a new Chargepoint Home Flex charger installed in April when I purchased my Ioniq 6 and set the charging current to 40 amps. The charger was hardwired directly to my service panel with the appropriate 6 gauge wire and 60 amp breaker. My Ioniq 6 reliably charged at 40 amps until early July when it started dropping the charge rate to 23 amps about 40 minutes into my charging session when using the level 2 charger at home. My Ioniq 5 only charged at 40 amps for the first week of ownership before starting to drop the charge rate to 23 amps. When this behavior started I plugged an OBD2 scanner in and was able to monitor the AC Charging Inlet temperature and noticed that the charge drop happened when the temperature reached 240F. This causes an issue when planning my charge times because they can essentially double, meaning that my vehicles are not ready for a trip by the estimated time. I am also concerned that having electronics that overheat on an EV may be a potential fire hazard in the future. One of the key reasons for purchasing these vehicles was the advertised charge times. I have appointments with the dealership to have both of these vehicles diagnosed.

Car's onboard AC charger overheats, I can replicate every time upon charging Poses fire hazard Dealer will not confirm, but TSB's have been issued to reduce the charging current (car no longer charges as advertised at time of purchase) Inspection performed by Ioniq certified dealer Warning first appeared June 2, 2023

The Ioniq 6 is supposed to be able to charge at 48 amps. I bought a new Ioniq 6 in early June 2023. June 12 I had the level 2 Juice Box 48 amp charger installed. At least twice (I think three times), it would stop charging after about twenty minutes — the charge port appears to be overheating in certain situations. Please have Hyundai either fix the port (or other hardware) and/or software. They may not advertise 48 amp charging when so many users are having overheating problems. They need to own this and be accountable. Precisely this happened on the Ioniq 6 to me: https://youtu.be/uXi33MtrJAU
