2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Complaint Log

This vehicle is in for its second replacement of the ICCU unit. The first was on March 2023,

The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) has intermittent failures. During the last failure, my wife was on a busy freeway (Interstate 5 near Hwy 120 northbound) in heavy but fast moving traffic. She was driving in the #2 lane (of 4 lanes) when she experienced sudden loss of propulsion. The vehicle slowed to 5 MPH in traffic that was moving 70 to 80 MPH. She had to traverse through the #3 and #4 lanes to the narrow emergency shoulder. Cars were honking and flipping her off. In the emergency lane, the vehicle completely died after 30 to 60 seconds. She was at risk of being rear ended during the dangerous 5 MPH lane changes and in the time parked in the emergency lane. She could not start the car for 15 minutes, after which the system came back to life. She was then able to start it and continue home. The first time the ICCU failed was in a parking lot. This is a known defect with Hyundai which they have attempted to rectify with Recall Campaign 272. However, they refuse to replace the ICCU. After the first event, they replaced the battery after 22 months/32429 miles. Now they want to replace the battery again after another 20 months/34k miles. What they don't get, is that the batteries have not prematurely failed. Instead the ICCU has intermittently and temporarily drawn the batteries down causing the vehicle to lose propulsion and die. They refuse to replace the ICCU because an error code they were looking for was not in the memory. They have performed three software updates on three separate dealer visits, but the issue has not been resolved. During the last visit they kept my vehicle for six weeks while I appealed through Hyundai Consumer Affairs and the Service manager appealed through his Dealer rep. But the factory engineers held firm and would not approve the ICCU warranty replacement, and instead wanted me to pay for 12V battery replacement. We don't know if there were any warning lights since my wife was busy navigating the danger.

Iccu blew. Car cannot be charged

The ICCU unit failed, making this electric vehicle unchargeable and therefore undriveable. This is the second time this has happened on this vehicle and the wait for the part was 8 plus weeks. This is a nationwide issue.

Was charging the car at home in my garage when the charging session stopped. Opened the door and smelled electrical burning. Was able to put the car in neutral and push it out onto my driveway, fearing that an electrical fire could be disastrous. Called Hyundai roadside assistance and they had it towed to the closest dealership that can work on EV's (35 miles away). No report yet, but I'm pretty sure it's an ICCU failure.

While driving home, first "Check EV system" error came on and then "STOP VEHICLE - POWER SYSTEM FAILURE"; it was continuing to drive but would then not go above 25 mph. I pulled car over at next exit and had it towed to the dealership. It was not safe to drive at 25mph on a 45mph roadway. The dealership has confirmed problem with ICCU relay and 12V battery. This is the 2nd time this vehicle has had an ICCU problem.

After a loud bang (fuse blown) the car was unable to move just before I was about to turn into an intersection. The ICCU failed for the second time, all warranty repair completed prior to the incident, first failure occurred in 2024. Both failures occurred close to a when the lead acid battery failed and needed replacement. When the car was stopped and started again, I was able to drive the car slowly to the dealership located less then 1/4 mile away. The car behaved as if there was no power steering but the car still jerked the wheel around to try to put me back into the driving lane presumably because I was driving in the emergency lane. Failed component was ICCU Module 36400-1XAA0. Vehicle was unsafe because I was unable to move while about to turn into an intersection. After stopping and starting the car, the was drive-able bit mildly erratic when attempting to move the car to a safe location (out of the left turning lane). Problem was identified, confirmed, and repaired by dealer under warranty for second time. Component and vehicle inspected by dealer. Failed part sent back to manufacturer. This incident occurred without any prior warning or indication by the vehicle. There were no active recalls on the vehicle at the time of the incident.

I have had multiple issues believed to be related to the ICCU. The first issue was that my 12V battery deteriorated and died prematurely. I had to purchase a jump start charger and ultimately replace the OEM 12V battery in 2024 (within the first 2 years of owning my new vehicle) because it was failing to reliably start and I was at risk of being stranded every time I parked and turned off my vehicle. The 2nd issue occurred in Dec 2025 - the vehicle stopped charging with L1/L2 chargers. The dealer did not have availability to diagnose for 3+ weeks (until Jan'26), during which my only option was to use L3 Fast DC chargers (severely limiting my options for when/where I charge and costing a premium price). Once the dealer inspected my vehicle, they confirmed it was the ICCU and informed me there is a nationwide shortage and that it would be 6-8 weeks before a replacement was available. I'm currently at week 4 (mid-Feb) with no ETA currently available, so I'm forced to drive a replacement vehicle (and make alternative arrangements for personal travel that would violate replacement vehicle terms & conditions).

I have owned the car for less than 2 years and it has had 2 ICCU units put in it under warranty. I'm worried about the viability of the car after the warranty runs out. I would hope that given the problems with this component that Hyundai will help customers with this known problem.

The ICCU failed. This was verified both by my local Hyundai dealership, Conicelli, and Hyundai Corporate. My safety was put at risk because my car rapidly lost power, informing me to pull over now while I was in the middle of driving. This happened with no other warning. The component has been inspected by the manufacturer, and I had even received a recall already that was supposed to prevent this issue from happening. There were no prior warning signs other than the alert to pull over now, which accompanied a rapid loss of power.

The ICCU failed while 300 miles from home. I was unable to charge the car with level 2 charging to get home. Luckily level 3 charging still worked. The ICCU breaking can also disrupt propulsion, so I'm lucky it didn't break to that degree while driving. The dealership ultimately replaced my ICCU. There were no warning signs. In fact, the car didn't even throw a code or error. It simply wouldn't charge.

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.

ICCU Failure caused car to lose all motive power. Car held at dealer for 18 days until replacement part could be procured. ICCU reprogramming recall had been completed on the vehicle. Part failed anyway.

In summer 2025, the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failed and was replaced under a Hyundai recall at no cost. On December 4, 2025, warning lights reappeared. College Park Hyundai diagnosed a faulty battery related to the prior ICCU failure. I paid out of pocket for a 12-volt battery replacement and additional maintenance, as the dealership claimed the battery was not covered. A “Check Electric Vehicle System” warning appeared immediately after I picked up the vehicle that same day. On December 5, 2025, I returned the vehicle to College Park Hyundai with 20,415 miles. They diagnosed a failed main EV drivetrain battery requiring warranty replacement. As of April 5, 2026, my vehicle has been at the dealership for 122 consecutive days with no repair completed, no replacement battery received, and no estimated completion date. Despite repeated follow-ups, I have received no meaningful updates on repair status or battery availability. I have been without my vehicle for four months with no resolution in sight. This extended delay represents a significant safety concern and an unacceptable failure of Hyundai’s warranty obligations.

The car would no longer charge and the dealer said it is due to a faulty ICCU. The dealer said this part is on back order with an indefinite freeze and no ETA. My car has been at the dealership shop since January 29 and Hyundai corporate has not been helpful when I escalated to them. Overall I have had these charging issues since early December. Hyundai has denied my request to buyback the vehicle since it is over 4 years old now (2022). I’m very disappointed and concerned about the ongoing ability for this vehicle to be safe and drivable.

I plugged the car into our Juicebox charger and waited for the car to say “charging scheduled” before I walked away. My husband didn’t realize I plugged in and managed to back out of the garage, ripping the charger from the car. We need to buy a new charger now. We understand the car should never move if the charger is connected.

I have had all recall updates on the car including a recent one on 10/13/2025. Turned on the heater on the first cold night in Dallas this fall and got the engine warning light. Checked the ODB and code was P1A90(96). I was able to drive it to the dealer with a 40 mph max speed. The funny thing is my ICCU has already been replaced under warranty once like 16 months ago, so it seems the replacement parts aren't much better than the original. Dealer confirmed it is an ICCU failure and I'm now waiting on the part. Hyundai has NOT fixed this ICCU problem even when they replace with a new ICCU. Someone needs to hold them accountable for finding a real fix.

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.

The car stopped both Level 1 and 2 charging. But Level 3 charging worked. When it stopped in the middle of Level 2 charging, it tripped my circuit and bricked my Juicebix Level 2 charger. Hyundai replaced the ICCU.

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.

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.

While charging at home with provided Level 1 Charger, the vehicle will suddenly stop charging. When it stops, it appears to be surging an electrical charge back into the home (black marks on outlets requiring an electrician to replace, black marks on the charger plug, and most recently, threw a breaker on our home electrical panel). This is a fire hazard.

Iccu failure for the 3rd time

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.

My ioniq 5 has had the ICCU and 12V battery replaced in April, due to ICCU failure. Since then on two separate occasions the car has drained the 12V battery while parked. Both times were shortly after driving the car, so the 12V battery should have been fully charged. I believe multiple recall campaigns have been made related to this issue, but my car still appears to exhibit the symptoms after receiving the updates. * I believe the ICCU software is faulty and is not correctly charging the 12V battery. * This fault makes the car likely to strand my family unexpectedly (a safety issue), as it affects even the newly replaced 12V battery. * I have not taken this vehicle back to the dealership since the ICCU was replaced, since the 12V battery has only drained twice since then, I feel like it is unlikely they will be able to reproduce the issue. * No warning lamps or fault codes stored in the ECU.

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.

Car died due to 12v battery failure due to ICCU not working properly in Oct 2023. Did ICCU recall and safety updates with dealer and they installed a new 12v battery. Oct 2025, car dies again due to 12v battery failure to to ICCU. Car has been at dealer for over 2 months waiting for new ICCU part to arrive and be installed. The ICCU system on this vehicle and related vehicles in the Hyundai/Kia line up seem to have a significant design flaw. I have no confidence a new ICCU part will 'fix' the issue. This will just push the issue out again until the new 12v battery dies and we do it all over again.

The car would not charge. The Dealership where the car was bought assessed the problem and found out that the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) of the car had failed. They already replaced the component, however I am reporting this problem so as to be included in the statistics for this common problem with this Hyundai make.

On October 16th our ICCU blew. I know Hyundai says this only affects 1% of vehicles, but the 2 people we also know with the same car have had the same failure, so this seems impossible so I wanted to report it. - The ICCU broke and fuse blew while charging. It blew while charging at 24 amps and actually blew the adjacent breaker as well in our panel. - The ICCU and main fuse were confirmed to be blown by the dealer in October. - There were no symptoms or warning lights most of the time; it just blew our panel breaker and would no longer AC charge. While trying to charge it, it did briefly show an electrical vehicle system error code, but when we turned it off and back on it went away. - My understanding is that with a blown fuse and ICCU it does not charge the 12v battery, so while we could drive the car and not even realize there was a problem, the battery could die while driving and create a very unsafe situation.

Iccu failure cause vehicle to lose power in the middle of the interstate, Hyundai has no solution for the ongoing problem

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 am filing this complaint regarding Hyundai Motor America's failure to complete a vehicle repair in a timely manner on my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 (VIN: [XXX] ), which has been at Hyundai of Leander, an authorized Hyundai service center in Leander, Texas, since September 2025 — more than six months — awaiting a replacement high-voltage battery. (Case No. XXX) I purchased this vehicle in September 2025 from Apple Sport Imports in [XXX] . The vehicle was sent immediately to Hyundai of Leander for an open repair and I never took full delivery. I was informed the replacement battery was initially allocated to a different dealership and a new order could not be placed until approximately January 2026. As of March 2026, Hyundai's own case manager confirmed in writing on March 30, 2026 only that they are working to determine the battery's arrival date with no confirmed completion date provided. Since November 2025, I have made 5 monthly payments of $513.92 totaling $2,569.60 on a vehicle I have never driven, with a sixth payment of $513.92 due in April 2026. I am also flagging a potential records discrepancy for NHTSA's awareness. When I checked my VIN on Hyundai's recall lookup website, Recall 272 — covering an ICCU software update, fuse replacement, and ICCU replacement on 2022-2024 MY IONIQ 5 vehicles — is listed as a Closed Campaign with a completion date of October 24, 2025. My vehicle was physically at Hyundai of Leander awaiting parts on that date and remains there today. I do not know whether this recall is related to the current open repair, but I am flagging the potential discrepancy for investigation. When I raised this with Hyundai of Leander's service department, I received no clear explanation. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate Hyundai Motor America's recall fulfillment practices and the accuracy of their recall completion records for this vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

For the check electrical warning. Took to dealer and they diagnosed it as a failed ICCU. In another issue, smelling sharpie from the air vent. Which might indicate a HVAC issue.

Shift gear was not engaging then i noticed the knob was slightly sticking out so I pushed it back in. The car changed gear then but it happened again a couple days later but this time the knob fell off while i was trying to push it back in. Brought to the dealers for inspection in September within a week after the problem started. Followed up twice now with no update as to when it will be fixed, I was told they will need to order part and that the entire shift gear will need to be replaced. They didn’t seem to be concerned about the safety of driving the vehicle around meantime. My husband used my car for a long trip while i was out of the country and he said the shift gear fell again. If it gets loose the gear does not engage.

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.

A severe vibration started suddenly in the steering wheel and persisted between ~55 and 65mph. The first occurrence almost caused a crash on the highway and significant driver input force was needed to control the car. The dealer found that quieting foam glued inside the tire had come loose and caused an unbalance. They started they had seen this several times now on these cars.

When coming to a stop on a slight incline, the vehicle will come to a full and complete stop and occasionally begin to roll backwards after half a 2nd without changing brake pedal position. If the brake pedal is not push further down, the vehicle will continue to roll backwards. I have tested this on multiple IONIQ 5 models with the same result (2022 and 2023). This could cause a collision if there is another car behind the problem vehicle. No warning lamps. Both vehicles have done this since new. Nothing is wrong with either of the vehicles according to multiple dealers.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 would not charge, so I could not drive it. Got it to Hyundai for a diagnosis and as of now they are saying it is part number # 36400-1xAA0 ICCU ASSY and part number # 375F2-GI040 FUSE-HIGH VOLTAGE.

Car started issuing a burning smell, emitting a noxious burning smell through the air vents making it impossible to drive with the windows closed. The HVAC system had to be shut off. The Ioniq 5 and all E-GMP Hyundai vehicles have known issues with the charging port and ICCU (integrated charging control unit). This vehicle has had all previous recalls related to charging and the ICCU addressed, but it has still resulted in failure of the vehicle charging port. Dealership stated charging port needed to be replaced, but stated it would not be covered under warranty with now explanation provided despite the fact that this is still covered under several recalls.

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 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.

Interior driver's side door handle broke off. The driver cannot open the door without lowering the window (electrically operated) and reaching outside to pull the exterior door handle. The car must remain of to do this (if off, the window cannot be lowered). I deem this to be extremely dangerous in the event of an accident when the car cannot be started; the driver is stuck in the car.

ICCU failed while driving. Risk was that I suddenly had to pull over safely, as my car would no longer accelerate. This is a known issue, yet they haven’t fully addressed it over years. I had it taken in for recall fixes, and the part still failed 2 weeks later. There was no warning before it happened. But failure signs appeared after.

I was coasting into a library parking space with my foot off the accelerator. The car accelerated even with my foot on the brake, jumped a curb and was stopped with above ground tree roots. The dashboard should have been lighted up with collision warning indicators and the automatic braking should have engaged. It did none of that. The car was totaled. Nothing was ever checked to see if it was a mechanical error. My insurer totaled the car.

Over the two years I have owned this vehicle I have had to replace the windshield three times. I am on my fourth windshield and have three chips/crack already. I have never experience crack/chips like this or at this frequency. I am at a point where I am concerned the getting my windshield replace will cause my insurance to increase because the frequency and expense. Because of have a heads up display the windshield cost up to $1,500 to replace and calibrate. I drive my vehicle on paved roads and the highway only. There are many reports online for similar issues.

While driving on the highway during a rainstorm, the high voltage fuse on my car's Internal Charge Control Unit blew and the ICCU itself failed. This rendered the vehicle inoperable as soon as I managed to get it to the shoulder. It took two weeks to repair, and I had to argue with Hyundai's corporate lines for almost six months before the offered a partial reimbursement for their device failure.

The ICCU on my 2022 IONIQ 5 SE AWD failed during (or immediately after) using a public Level 2 ChargePoint charger.
