2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5

Finished charge, low battery indicator on the dashboard. started to drive, within mile "pull over immediatedly" well documented and continued flaw with vechile ICCU component (that I had the software "patches" applied). Car will no longer accept charge (so now has the remaining charge before being a 3 ton brick) and cannot not be driven as if the 12v battery loses charge (which it will) I will lose powersteering and brakes.

Upon starting the car, it made an audible "pop", and the dash indicated to check the 12V power supply and "low available power" with a turtle indicator, and an "EV!" warning lamp. The car struggled to accelerate out of the parking lot, and within a minute, the dash displayed a "power failure" message, and the car lost all ability to accelerate while on the road, forcing an emergency pull-over. The 12V system completely failed while waiting for a tow truck, complicating the already poorly-documented and complicated process of disengaging the vehicle's automatic parking break for loading onto the flatbed trailer. The dealership performed diagnostics and confirmed an ICCU failure. After waiting for parts and technician availability, the ICCU was replaced with part number 36400-1XAA0-AQQH "ICCU Assy" and returned to me 32 days later.

Car gave a "electrical error" message and would no longer charge at any charger. It slowly lost power and eventually stopped driving fully on the highway. The dealer says the ICCU is responsible. I inquired if this recall was not fixed already, they said it was but can still happen and the ICCU is not resolved truly, the software is just a temporary fix according to them. The vehicle will need a new ICCU.

The 2022 ioniq 5 was bought used with 43k MI and within 2k miles of driving in 50-85F climate and 7kwh l2 charging I witnessed the orange check EV light flash while I was driving on the highway. I exited and powrr cycled the car and the EV light remained. The next morning the orange check EV light was gone. I went to the dealership for a diagnostic and they said they could not replicate the error code or had found any history of the error code coming up without proving to me or showing me any substantial evidence that they tested for anything at the Escondido Hyundai dealership in California. I escalated the issue with Hyundai corporate and was assigned a case manager that ultimately gave me the same answer that they could not replicate any codes and that I should take the car back and drive normally. After extensive research I found that the orange check ev light is a more dangerous sign than the red check ev light because it indicates that the ICCU unit is about to fail. Research shows that due to thermal stress the ICCU will inevitably fail after the orange check AV light comes on. Further research shows that Hyundai had officially stated a 1% failure rate for the ICCU unit in all of their EVs built on the e-gmp cars to date but some projections are at 10% failure rate or higher and that Hyundai Kia is downplaying the issue similarly to how they tried to do the same with the Theta 2 GDI engines that they had been sued and were responsible to pay over $300 or so million dollars as well as $24 million to a employee whistleblower a few years ago. I highly suggest that the nhtsa or other organizations that have the power to force Hyundai Kia to do the right thing so that no further lives are at risk from these ICCU units that have flawed designs that have not been fixed,only remedied via software update or replaced with refurbished units at the most with inevitable failure as thermal stress is experienced.

ICCU failure

The ICCU has failed for the 2nd time in a year requiring lengthy repairs. The car cannot be driven with a faulty ICCU. The ICCU is responsible for converting AC power to DC for and stepping it up to 800 volts to charge the primary battery. It is also responsible for keeping the secondary 12 volt battery charged.

My ioniq 5 EV experienced an integrated charge control unit (ICCU) failure. A couple days prior to complete failure, we were unable to charge the vehicle using either level 1 or level 2 chargers. Our local Hyundai service center advised us that it was likely an ICCU failure and was unsafe to drive, due to the possibility of sudden loss of drivetrain power. The vehicle was towed to our local service center (CardinaleWay Hyundai El Monte in El Monte, California) and the ICCU completely failed after arriving at the service center. The vehicle is still at the service center and we have been advised that there is a nationwide shortage on replacement parts, with backorders of weeks to months.

While driving my IONIQ 5 it flashed a power limited warning, went into turtle mode, and then experienced a total loss of power. The 12V battery was dead.

Car lost propulsion in the middle of the road and would drive over 20 MPH. ICCU failure, which nearly caused me to get into an accident.

ICCU failure occurred while vehicle was operating at 30 MPH, after being charged the night prior and unplugged in the morning at 100% capacity. A sudden pop was heard, and the vehicle indicated that an electrical fault would require the vehicle to be shut down as soon as safely possible. The vehicle went into limp mode and would not exceed 25 MPH.

ICCU failed second time wednesday february 18, 2026. First ICCU failed November 2024 and replaced under warranty. The car went in turtle mode.....20 mph or less. Limped along safely on side of roadway and used sideroads. The dealer says the ICCU and fuse need to be replaced. The dealer wants me to pay for this part, third time is a charm? I don't think I could ever trust this part again. They want to give me the exact same part they gave me when the ICCU failed b4. There were 2 messages: stop vehicle and check power supply ......check electric vehicle system. They were timely and made this failure a bit safer. The dealer inspected the vehicle but not the manufacturer or anyone else. The car is at Balise Hyundai Fairfield CT I BELIEVE 10% OF THESE ICCUs ARE DEFECTIVE.

ICCU failure ICCU fuse popped, vehicle went into low power mode I was able to get it off the road into the county transfer station. I got it towed to a local auto shop as Hyundai roadside wasn't accepting tows due to weather. Hyundai towed the car to the dealership the next day.

For the past few days, our 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 (approx. 83,000 miles) has been unable to charge using AC charging (Level 1 or Level 2). The failure is repeatable and consistent across multiple chargers: two separate home Level 2 chargers, the Hyundai-provided Level 1 charger, and a neighbor’s Level 2 charger. In each case, charging either fails to start or stops shortly after initiating. DC fast charging continues to work normally. Component/system suspected: The problem appears related to the vehicle’s onboard AC charging system (possible ICCU, onboard charger/OBC, charge port/inlet, or related high-voltage charging components). The vehicle and components are available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: This creates a safety concern because we cannot reliably charge the vehicle at home or at most public charging locations (which are predominantly Level 2 AC). This increases the risk of unexpectedly running out of charge and becoming stranded in unsafe locations, especially where DC fast chargers are not available. Reproduction/confirmation: The issue has been reproduced on multiple independent AC chargers, making it unlikely to be caused by a single EVSE/charger. A dealer appointment is scheduled for diagnosis and confirmation. Warning lamps/messages: When attempting AC charging, the vehicle reports a charging failure/unsuccessful charging condition (exact message UNKNOWN). No prior warning lamps were noticed before the issue began (UNKNOWN). This issue appears to be widespread based on numerous similar owner reports of AC charging failure on Ioniq 5 vehicles while DC fast charging still works, suggesting a potential systemic defect in the onboard charging/ICCU-related hardware.

ICCU failed at ~27,000 miles. Loud pop came from the under the vehicle. Afterwards, car could only accelerate to 35 mph. Dashboard error message told driver there was an electrical issue and advised us to pull over. Car had to be towed. Currently at the dealer awaiting a replacement. Dealership said it could take "weeks or months" to get a replacement part. Sudden loss of propulsion is a safety risk to other drivers. We were on the highway and could not get to speed. ICCU malfunctions appear to be very common with Hyundai EVs. Hyundai appears to be aware that this is a problem but doesn't seem very interested in solving it.

Q: What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? A: ICCU failed - Not available for inspection (at least at this time, but willing to try and make it work). Q: How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? A: The ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) is a safety-critical component subject to federal recalls 24V-204 and 24V-868. (My vehicle had all recalls performed prior to this failure.) The failure occurred while driving which was indicated by a “popping” sound. It is contextually important to note that the ICCU is responsible for charging the 12v battery, had the 12v battery failed during the duration of my drive I would have experienced a sudden loss of motive power. A sudden loss of motive power is an unacceptable risk to public safety. Q: Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? A: Yes, the problem has been reproduced and confirmed to be an ICCU failure by an official Hyundai service center. Q: Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? A: No. Q: Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? A: Symptoms first appeared February 14, 2026. The first symptom of failure was the signature “pop” sound that the ICCU failure is known for. Only after my drive and upon attempting L1/L2 charging did my dash warning indicate “Check Electric Vehicle System.” I also checked for codes with my OBDII scanner, and it showed no codes.

I was traveling on the freeway when I got a warning saying “check electrical.”i started to pull over on the freeway and my car went into “turtle mode “and I made it off the offramp but almost got rear ended. I was half a mile from home so I limp home in a tow truck towed off. It was determined it is the ICCU.

I was on the freeway and went into limp mode and almost got into a traffic accident. My ICCU unit failed after two recalls on it.

ICCU Failure . Car stopped in the middle of the highway. I was able to move over thankfully to the side of the rode. Went into turtle mode and then it had to be Towed to my local Hyundai Dealership

Factory installed Michelin Primacy AS tires with acoustic foam lining. All 4 tires had acoustic foam coming loose and wadding up inside the tire, resulting in extreme vibrations (similar to a severely unbalanced tire) approaching and at highway speeds making vehicle difficult to control. Initially had the tires re-balanced in an attempt to fix before the problem was fully understood, but that solution did not last. Ultimately had the tires dismounted and foam pulled out, then rebalanced.

The Dealer states my ICCU has failed and will be replaced. My vehicle could no longer charge on AC power (level 1 or level 2), and eventually had to be taken to the dealer because it could not be charged at home any longer due to the ICCU failing.
