NHTSA Owner Complaint Log
This page lists owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA for the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5. Complaints are unverified consumer reports submitted to NHTSA and do not by themselves prove a defect or defect rate.
While stopped at a stop light, "check electrical system" warning flashed on instrument panel without any prior warning or malfunction. I was only able to move the car about 50 feet before all power and controls failed. I was in a middle lane and was barely able to move the car out of traffic. Tow truck driver with a large jump start battery pack was able to give it enough power for me to crawl it onto their flatbed, my small lithium jumpstart pack was only enough to get the rest of its doors unlocked. Battery temperature was about 30 degrees F, state of charge 75 percent, had been driving from home less than 10 minutes, car had been sitting outside for a few days. Problem diagnosed as ICCU failure by dealer service department, now waiting on replacement part to complete repair.
Car experienced ICCU failure. It tripped my 50A breaker at the fuse panel and damaged my EVSE. Car has been sitting in the shop for 3 weeks with NO eta insight (Dropped car off on Jan 20th, 2026). The service center tells me there are 20 Ioniq5s ahead of me still waiting on ICCU replacement parts. NHTSA and other articles have estimated 2-10% with ICCU failures but the problem appears to be much higher than this! I am very disappointed and hope NHTSA.gov will help us to push Hyundai to find a root cause instead of sweeping it under the table claiming less than "1%" are affected.
The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5. While driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle shut down unexpectedly, leaving the contact stranded for several hours. A RED warning light was illuminated, indicating an electrical failure, followed by the battery warning light being illuminated, leading to the loss of power. The vehicle was towed to the nearest dealer to be diagnosed. The dealer determined that the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000.
The car had no power on Monday [XXX]. It was taken taken to Tasca Hyundai in Hartsdale NY. The service manager told me it was the ICCU and 12v battery. This had previously been repaired on 12/11/24 under recall according to Hyundai's own records. The current service manager has no idea when the part will be available, possibly not for weeks. The car has been serviced according to Hyundai's maintenance schedule and recall notices. In fact the car went for maintenance one week prior to the part failure. No recall notice for this failure has been issued INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
While driving my 2023 Ioniq5 I got a warning on the dashboard about losing power and immedately the car slowed itself down to about 15 MPH, once I was able to get to a safe spot to pull over I stopped the car and it would not start again. I had it towed to the dealer and it has been a week and the ICCU is still on backorder. No idea when I will have the car back.
The car became inoperable after a "Check EV" warning appeared. The vehicle had to be towed to the dealership. Fortunately I was able to avoid an accident. The dealer tells me that the ICCU (Integrated Charge Controller Unit) failed which was part of an earlier recall that I took the car in to the dealer for and they only updated software but now the related hardware has failed afterwards. This is something that is extremely unsafe if it happens while driving. Hyundai needs to correct this with an improved and safe ICCU.
Vehicle experienced sudden loss of power while driving at highway speed. While driving on the interstate at highway speed in dark, snowy, high-traffic conditions, the vehicle displayed a warning about an electrical system fault and instructed me to “stop safely.” The vehicle immediately lost some propulsion and ramped down speed. We were only narrowly able to exit the highway before it would not move further. We were very lucky that no one hit us- it is extremely unsafe to drastically decrease speed on highway. Our family was in the car and it was very, very scary. We were able to use the heating system while parked for a few minutes before we lost all power completely. The vehicle was towed to a Hyundai dealership and is completely inoperable. The service manager stated the failure is consistent with a known ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failure. The dealership reports having many Ioniq vehicles with similar ICCU failures awaiting backordered parts, with no estimated repair timeline.
The ICCU component popped and blew seconds before I entered the on ramp for an interstate. My car immediately entered "turtle mode" and capped my speed at 10 mph. I crossed 4 lanes to get out of the turn ramp and get to a parking lot. The car alerted and stopped driving as I pulled into the lot. The car provided no warning before and has the 3 prior software recall fixes. It was unsafe for the car to suddenly stop working. 30 seconds more and I wouldn't have been able to pilot the car to a safe spot. Dealer has car and confirmed that the ICCU is blown and destroyed the 12v battery, which is less than a year old. They were willing to provide it to you. It is still at the dealership, as Hyundai national stopped shipping replacement ICCUs apparently in January.
ICCU failed while at highway speeds (65mph). Car went into 'turtle mode' limiting the car to 10mph. No warnings were provided prior to the incident. I was in the left of three lanes and had to make emergency actions to get to the Right shoulder across traffic. Traffic was obstructed. Was left stranded until a tow truck was available. Dealer confirmed ICCU failure.
I received a "Stop vehicle and check power supply" alarm on my dash after starting the car and leaving a parking garage. Then a "12V battery voltage low" message along with the "turtle mode" icon which limits the car to under 20 mph. I pulled over to a side street as I did not want the car to die on a main road and impede traffic or get hit. I called roadside assistance and the car was towed to the dealership.(1/16/2026). On Tuesday (1/19/2026) I was informed that the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) had failed. The dealership ordered the part(s) to be replaced and stated 5-7 days turnaround. Called dealership every 10 days or so, but was told there was no ETA for the parts delivery. On Thursday 3/6/2026 (48 days) received a text that the car was ready to be picked up. The ICCU and associated fuse was replaced.
My 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 suffered a sudden Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failure that put me in grave danger. As I left my workplace in the evening, I heard a “pop” sound and got the dashboard warning, “Check Electrical Vehicle System.” It was unclear what the warning meant. I had 65% charge left at that point. As I began driving, the gas pedal “stuck,” not allowing me to accelerate past 25 mph, and it felt like the car was dragging. I did not know what was happening. The “Check Electrical Vehicle System” warning returned but gave no indication of whether it was safe to drive or what to check in the electrical system. Driving very slowly, I made it out of the military base (my workplace), parked outside of a closed establishment, and called my husband. He told me to drive further up the road to a well-lit shopping area. I exited the parking lot and entered the intersection of a four-lane highway – and suddenly, when I was in the center about to turn in the direction of traffic, the car stopped and would not respond to the gas pedal. I could not accelerate and was stuck in the middle of the highway. After several frantic pushes on the gas pedal, I was able to coast downward to the shoulder and exit the vehicle. My husband and I had brought the car to the dealer in February 2025 for the December 20, 2024 ICCU recall (NHTSA Recall 24V-868, Hyundai Recall 272). The dealer merely inspected the car and updated its ICCU software. Per Hyundai guidance, it did not replace the ICCU itself. It is taking no apparent steps to do so for 2023 Ioniq 5 owners, leaving us in danger. The seriousness of this problem is compounded by the lack of adequate warning when it occurs out of the blue. The generic “Check Electrical Vehicle System” indicator on the dashboard did not indicate what precisely in the electrical system to check, how serious the issue was, or how much of the 12-volt battery power was left. Hyundai must rectify this issue before others are hurt.
The ICCU in my 2023 Ioniq 5 has failed for the second time. The 12V battery is dead and the car cannot be driven. It will be sitting at the dealership waiting for a new part for at least a month. Hyundai claims to have fixed the ICCU problem but from online reports it is clear that they have not solved this problem.
Vehicle stopped charging and will not charge using a level 1 or level 2 charger. It will charge at a level 3 charger only. Took it to a Hyundai dealership and they did a software update and said it was fixed. Took it home and still would not charge. Took it to another Hyundai dealership and they said it was an ICCU issue they had been seeing and it would need to be replaced. I have read from many other Hyundai Ioniq 5 owners about the ICCU being a weak point in the car and having to have it replaced, some multiple times. When I tried to charge with my level 1 charger at home, it tripped the breaker, which is concerning. The message on the dash was simply, "check battery system".
Entered car on very cold day. Put heater and defroster on high, drove about a mile and then the window cracked.
ICCU failed while driving, car limited speed immediately. This was after software recall was preformed a few months prior. Car went limp mode and repairs are going to take an indefinite time.
The car stopped being able to charge on AC level 1 and level 2, only able to charge on DC Fast. Took it to the dealership and they diagnosed an ICCU failure, rendering it undriveable. The part is under warranty but is backordered. I have already been waiting for 14 days, and they have no update for when they'll get the part in.
Pulling car out of my garage onto the driveway heard pop from rear of vehicle and display of "Check electric vehicle system" message. My OBD2 scanner reported the P1A90 ICCU failure code. Vehicle was current on all recalls and has been regularly Hyundai serviced since purchase January 2023. After consulting with dealer, car was towed to the dealer. Awaiting notification on repairs. How many more owners need to go through this without a full NHTSA directed recall???
ICCU failure at just 10k miles. Was driving, car kind of "jolted" and warning came on screen saying "check electric vehicle system" then warning said "stop vehicle, check power supply." So I limped to a stop and got a tow. It sounds like an increasingly prevalent issue even though my specific VIN did not have an open recall. Does not sound like Hyundai is taking this seriously.
Car lost power on highway, power lost.
I purchased the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited edition car on 12/20/2025. On 01/03/2026, a warning light came on and said I needed to check my electrical system. I drove 3 miles home and made an appointment with the Hyundai dealership on 01/05/26. On the morning of 01/05/26, as I was attempting to drive the car to the dealership, a turtle symbol appeared on the dashboard and said power limited. Three blocks later, the warning sign popped up that said pull over immediately. I pulled over as far as I could but the car completely died right in front a no parking sign. I had to wait for three hours in the freezing cold to get the car towed to the dealer. After two days, the dealer confirmed that the ICCU unit had failed and it would be replaced under warranty. One month later, I still do not have my car back, as the part is on backorder. Luckily, we had not taken this car to the mountains 1 week prior, or we would have been stranded in the freezing cold with minimal cell phone reception.
On 1/3/2026 I attempted to charge my car using my at-home level 2 charger. When charging initiated, the breaker tripped. I reset the breaker and tried again, but the same issue repeated. I attempted to charge my car by plugging directly into a GFCI outlet using the level 1 charger that came with the car, but this tripped the GFCI breaker. I had enough battery to drive to the dealer, and Hyundai diagnosed the issue as an ICCU failure. In my particular case, I wasn't put in danger, since the failure did not occur while driving. But this model and other models based on this platform have experienced a pattern of failures with this component. In some cases, the ICCU fails while driving in such a way that the car goes into a limp mode before becoming inoperable. I'm grateful this did not happen to me. I felt it was important to report this issue if only as a record of one more ICCU failure associated with this model.
My car failed to charge on my level 2 home charger and would only charge on a level 3 fast charger. Because of this, I was unable to charge my car at home. I was on a trip about 1 hour from my home in an area of Massachusetts that developed an electrical blackout. I almost ran out of power on a dark road with no streetlights. I was lucky to find a level 3 charger just on the outside of the blackout area when my car had less than 5% power. I brought the car to the Hyundai service center 2 weeks ago. I called daily for updates and was told they were "diagnosing" the problem. I called again, yesterday and was told it needed an ICCU. It had been ordered that afternoon (2/5/26) and they hoped it would arrived within the week. They were unable to provide a loaner car (even though I've been without a car for two weeks).
AWD functionality of car broken. Had to get traction motor replaced.
I was traveling 70mph on Interstate 70 when I heard a loud “pop” sound and the car immediately slowed down to 20mph in heavy traffic. The care then would not go over 20mph.The car was charged at home the night prior. On the dash was the “stop vehicle and check power supply” warning. This is the very common ICCU issues known to plague the Hyundai EV fleet. This is very dangerous when your are in heavy interstate traffic going at a high rate of speed.
Our 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 had the ICCU software update recall and subsequent complete failure of the ICCU, which was repaired. Yesterday the car again warned us of the 12v system failure and rendered it not only undrivable and unstartable, but also unlockable in the public parking area where it still sits awaiting a tow to the dealer tomorrow (they are closed on New Years Day. This is the second time the ICCU has failed, rendering the car totally inoperable and in this case stranding my wife in freezing cold.
High-voltage battery system failure causing complete loss of propulsion. Vehicle entered "turtle mode" (reduced power warning) at 25% charge, then became completely immobile — unable to move even on flat surface. This has occurred multiple times. Charging system displays "fully charged" within one minute while vehicle dashboard shows 60% — clear battery management system malfunction. Vehicle has been undriveable and awaiting battery replacement for over a month at this point with no information on when the battery will arrive or be in stock. This is a known widespread defect in Ioniq 5 vehicles. Multiple owner reports document the same battery system failures, extensive reports of ICCU failures, and Hyundai's solution is to replace these failing components with the same component that fails repeatedly in other vehicles. No permanent fix or design change has been issued. This is a critical safety defect. Vehicle becomes completely immobile without warning — total loss of propulsion in traffic creates immediate crash and stranding risk. False charge readings mean the vehicle cannot be trusted to complete any trip safely. I have been left stranded multiple times on the turnpike of 80mph speed limit due to sudden total system failure. Hyundai has not resolved the root cause. They continue replacing batteries with the same defective system. This vehicle is fundamentally unsafe and unreliable. I should not be required to drive a vehicle with a battery system documented to fail catastrophically and repeatedly. Service records and repair invoices available upon request — vehicle currently at dealer awaiting battery replacement.
Upon entering vehicle in the morning of 12/30/25, a notable smell was first present. After turning on the vehicle, the car dashboard showed a "Check electric vehicle system" warning. The car was not able to be put into any gear besides neutral. Car was towed to dealership, and received word on 1/2/26 that an ICCU failure was the cause.Thankfully this occurred while parked in my garage, so was not in immediate danger. Perhaps this isn't a safety issue, but I am not sure what would have happened had the ICCU blown while driving so thought worth reporting.
On the drive home the car dinged at me and put up the "Power Limited" message with the turtle icon. This limited me to 15mph maximum, so I ended up driving home in the shoulder as the roads are 50mph roads and would have created a major incident if I tried to stay in the lane. I was within a mile of my house so I limped home and pulling into the driveway the car switched to "Check Electrical Systems" and "12V battery voltage low. Stop Safely" as I pulled into the garage. This was at 8pm so I was not able to do anything else. I was able to have Hyundai Roadside Assistance tow the car, which did turn on next day in the morning to pull out of the garage and turn around. The car sat at the dealership for a week until they were able to look at it an confirm that the ICCU was broken. This happened right before New Years so I get taking a week to look at it. Right now they mentioned the part is on backorder and there is no schedule for repairs. This is a major issue for this line of cars and needs to be resolved. The car is not safe to drive long distance as this is the second time this has happened. For a 2023 model year it is almost a yearly occurrence now. My warranty will run out by mileage in ~44k miles and at that point this defect will be my responsibility.
ICCU failed 12/29/25, car inoperable and towed to dealer. Luckily this was in my garage , had it been on the freeway it would have been very dangerous and car goes into limp mode. Car red battery light and made chimes. Only has 25,000 miles on it. Has been at dealer since then with no resolution update.
The ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failed. I could not charge with my level 2 charger and dealer confirmed that the ICCU unit was bad and needed to be replaced. I have been waiting over a month for the part and repair.
The ICCU failed, leaving me stranded 4.5 hours from home. Luckily I was able to tow the car to the nearest dealership and they gave me a loaner. It has been 6 weeks and no update yet.
Car gave an error check electrical system and went into limp mode on highway slowing to 25mph.
The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact stated that while driving 4 MPH, the vehicle lost power and stalled a mile from the residence. The message "Check Electrical System" was displayed. The hazard light was activated but quickly became inoperable. The contact called AAA towing, where a power booster was attached to the vehicle, and the vehicle was restarted. The contact was able to drive back to the residence. The AAA driver indicated that he had towed eight other similar vehicles to the same local dealer. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 16,000.
The 12 V battery failed within two years of the delivery of the car. I believe this is due to the design of the charging unit within it as many other others report the same problem.
ICCU failed causing car to be unable to be charged. If driven any further it would have eventually stopped working.
On December 23, 2025 while driving at 50 mph the car displayed an electrical warning and would not let me drive more than 40 mph. When I drove it to the dealer on December 27 (because the dealer said I had to wait until after Christmas ) it would not go over 20 mph. The vehicle has been at the dealer awaiting an ICCU part since December 27, 2025. Over 50 days!
We had the Internal Charge Control Unit replaced due to a warranty recall a couple years ago and it failed again on Dec. 23, 2025. The car has been at the dealer ever since, waiting for a replacement ICCU. The car refuses to charge and the dealer has diagnosed the issue as a faulty ICCU. There were no warnings or problem indicators prior to failure. This is our only vehicle, so while there was no safety issue, there is definitely a convenience issue. We had to obtain a loaner.
The ICCU of my vehicle failed and couldn't charge using AC power which also caused my 12V battery to fail. The car has had the old recall completed month prior to this failure so Hyundai didn't replace the defective part just updated software in hope the defect wouldnt happened. Regardless the defect happened and the car while still under warranty has not been fixed in 57 days. Hyundai states my vin has no ETA for part to be delivered and fixed.
I purchesed the Hyundai ionic 5 2023 from hyandai dealer ship. It had 42 k miles. The car ran good. So I got it. They promised me before the I bought they would charge it up free. When I signed the paper they said they couldn't charge it for me. I drove 5 miles the original battery died. I almost got to accudent only 5 miles away. I figured it was original battery. I change battery. I get tow truck to take home i put new battery in it. Then 5 days later the main iccu stopped charging. Another 12 bolt battery drain. They new it had that problem. Two batteries are main iccu won't charge. They make me sign paper buy as is i didnt think it would die 5 miles later they new it had a serious problem I look on internet the same car had recalls for the same car not on mine My car should have been recalled I heard 1000 s were affected with the same problem. They new it would fail on me thars why they get me to sign the papers. I hooe it's not 21 k down the drain I hope i dont have to spend 15 k on new iccu.
On 12/13 while driving back home at a red light at night, we heard a loud pop at the driver's rear side and suddenly the dash displayed a warning stating "Check electric vehicle system". The car then would not drive past 25 mph and kept flashing the warning. We got it home safe, and planned on dropping it off at the dealership the next day after jumping it. The next day however, after multiple attempts to jump the car's battery, it would not start enough to move it. The car would start and then flash a warning saying that the 12V battery voltage is low and then shut off again. It had to be towed on 12/15 to the dealership where they will be doing an diagnosis.
My car has suffered two ICCU failures despite going through all of the Hyundai recalls. Through the so far 30 months of my lease, the car has been non-operational for close to 5 months. The car is still currently in the shop awaiting delivery of the replacement parts, but there is absolutely no ETA being provided. As I understand it, this is a common issue with this model and given that it is the second occurrence for me personally, it doesn't seem like Hyundai has a good grasp on how to deal with the issue and give consumers a functioning vehicle.
Got "check electric vehicle system" warning message when backing into my parking space. Later, when I turned car on to leave, it went into limp mode in the parking lot. Had car towed to Lithia Hyundai of Reno. ICCU failure was determined.
My vehicle has experienced three separate failures of the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) and two separate 12-volt battery failures. All manufacturer recalls related to the ICCU have been completed. Each of these five events required towing and resulted in either an inability to start the vehicle, or a sudden loss of power while driving, including limp mode. During multiple events, the vehicle displayed a warning message stating “Stop vehicle and check power supply” accompanied by a red battery icon. The sudden loss of power created a serious safety risk to me and to others on the road, particularly when the vehicle lost propulsion unexpectedly. In each case, the vehicle became unsafe or impossible to operate. For every incident, the problem was diagnosed by authorized Hyundai dealer, and I was informed that the issue had been repaired. Despite these repairs and recall actions, the same failures continued to occur. These repeated ICCU and 12-volt battery failures demonstrate an ongoing electrical system defect that has not been permanently corrected and presents a continuing risk of sudden power loss.
While driving on the freeway I heard a pop and a saw a warning notification on the dashboard to check the vehicles electrical system. This was followed by a warning that power was limited which resulted it the vehicle speed decreasing to 30mph, and finally a notice to stop the vehicle immediately. All of this occurred in about 5 minutes time. Thankfully, I was able to pull over to the side of the road without an accident. After this the vehicle became inoperable including hazard flashers. I had to wait on the side of the freeway for about an hour to get a tow. The vehicle was towed to a dealer which confirmed that the ICCU and high voltage fuse were faulty. My safety during this process was put at risk because A) during a snow storm I had to pull the vehicle over to the side quickly across 4 lanes of traffic and B) then remain parked on the shoulder with limited ability to notify other drivers that I was on the shoulder. The dealer has confirmed the failure, the vehicle is available for inspection, and the manufacturer has not inspected the component.
The ICCU on my Ioniq 5 failed about a year after getting the software update that supposedly addressed the issue. I am very concerned about the reliability of my car going forward as it doesn't appear Hyundai has addressed the issue and I have no reason to think the replacement ICCU component won't fail as well.
The car was fully charged and all of a sudden displayed a limited power warning and stopped driving completely. We were stuck on a road and had to get a tow truck. The tow truck was able to get power to the battery to drive it up on the bed. It was fully dead -couldn’t even unlock the doors. It’s been at Hyundai for 3 days and they are replacing the ICCU fuse. From what I read this is a very common issue
ICCU failure after initial recall
INCIDENT DESCRIPTION: On November 24, 2025, while driving at ~60 mph on NYS Route 17 (highway) with ~15% battery charge, my 2023 Hyundai IONIQ 5 suddenly entered limp mode and lost motive power. The high-voltage battery state of charge dropped instantly from ~10-15% to 0%, triggering error code P1B9600 (HV battery cell imbalance—cells failing to charge/discharge properly). I was unable to fully remove the vehicle from the roadway. My elderly mother was a passenger; a passing tractor-trailer came within 1 ft of striking us when disabled. NY State Police responded (report available). Required $300 tow to the Hyundai dealer, stranding us 150 miles from home.//PRIOR RELATED FAILURES: 1. November 14, 2025: Stranded due to ICCU failure (recall 24V-868 related) (stranded on NYS State Route 444). 2. September 15, 2025: Same P1B9600 code/limp mode/power loss; stranded in the middle of active travel lane of NYS 444; NY State Police report filed. 3. August 2025: Initial HV battery-related sudden power loss; stranded on Interstate 90 Eastbound (Erie, PA area). Despite repairs (September 2025 ICCU/"limp mode" software updates; October 2025 ICCU/high-voltage fuse replacement under recall 24V-868), defects persist. The vehicle charge rate also appears low and the battery consumption rate seems high.// CURRENT STATUS: Dealer (Vision Hyundai) confirmed high-voltage battery pack defective, requiring full replacement. Vehicle purchased new October 2024, under warranty. In service since mid-November 2025 (>30 days downtime). Provided loaner now, but prior rentals unreimbursed.//SAFETY RISK: Repeated sudden power losses create extreme highway crash risk, especially with vulnerable passengers. I am a licensed professional mechanical engineer, and can provide technical logs, repair orders, police reports upon request.The issues I have experienced appear to be linked to ongoing ICCU/HV system issues in IONIQ 5. I respectfully request expansion of the recall investigation.
I am reporting a safety concern with my 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 related to Hyundai placing remote safety features behind a paid subscription. Hyundai has locked two functions that affect safety: (1) the ability to remotely check the vehicle’s battery state of charge, and (2) the ability to remotely unlock the doors from a phone. These functions previously existed under BlueLink but were removed unless the owner pays for the new Connected Services package. 1. Remote battery status Without paying the subscription, I cannot check the vehicle’s battery level while it is charging. If I need to leave the charging area or am charging from home and not directly watching the dashboard, there is no way to verify whether charging completed or stalled. Charging interruptions are common with EVs. This could leave me stranded unexpectedly in unsafe conditions, at night, or in severe weather. This is a safety issue, not a convenience issue. 2. Remote unlock Hyundai also removed the ability to unlock the car from my phone unless I pay for the subscription. This creates a safety hazard if a child accidentally locks themselves in the car with the key fob inside. Without remote unlock, the parent may have to break a window or wait for emergency responders, which creates risk of heat or cold exposure to a child. This problem is reproducible every time I attempt to use the app without a paid subscription. Hyundai has been contacted and has not offered a safety solution except paying the subscription fee. I am asking NHTSA to review whether locking basic safety functions behind a paywall creates a safety defect that could put vehicle occupants at risk.
I own a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 that experienced a battery failure while still under warranty. The vehicle became completely undriveable in late November 2025 and had to be towed to a Hyundai dealership. The vehicle has now been sitting at the dealership for more than 90 days waiting for a replacement battery with no repair completion date provided. The dealership indicated that the required battery component is unavailable or on extended backorder. While a loaner vehicle was provided, the original vehicle remains unusable for an extended period due to a major battery defect. This raises concerns about reliability and the availability of critical components needed to repair electric vehicles when failures occur.
