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.
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…

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. Doe…

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.
ICCU and 12V both failed
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…

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.
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 …

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.
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 de…

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.
ICCU failed causing car to be unable to be charged. If driven any further it would have eventually stopped working.
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 awa…

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.

1PE23011 · Loss Of Motive Power
Opened Jun 8, 2023 · Closed Apr 17, 2024
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Electrical SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V Battery; Electrical System:propulsion System:dc/dc Converter
On June 8, 2023, the Office of Defect Investigation (ODI) opened PE23011 to investigate allegations of loss of motor power on model year (MY) 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 vehicles. Some consumers reported loss of motor power immediately after a warning lamp illumination or reduction of motive power while the vehicle was in motion. This investigation found that the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) may be subject to various conditions such as overcurrent, overvoltage induced at the end of charging, and certain thermal loading during operation that can damage its internal components and open the ICCU fuse, resulting in an inability to charge the 12-volt battery. The vehicle could eventually lose all motive power, increasing the risk of a crash. In July 2023, Hyundai issued a service campaign to address certain MY 2022-2023 Ioniq 5 and MY 2023 Ioniq 6 vehicles that may have low 12V auxiliary battery charging occurrences due to an ICCU fault and may set the DTC P1A9096 “DC/DC Converter Input Voltage Sensor Fault”. On March 15, 2024, Hyundai filed Safety Recall 24V-204 for 98,878 MY 2022-2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 vehicles and MY 2023-2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6, Genesis GV60, Genesis GV70 “Electrified” and Genesis G80 “Electrified” vehicles. The recall remedy provides an inspection, and if necessary, a replacement of the ICCU and the associated fuse. The ICCU software reduces the risk of overcurrent and implements voltage peak reduction at the end of EV battery charging. The recall also includes a software update that revises the electric water pump operational threshold to reduce thermal loading during charging and driving. In view of the recall action being taken by Hyundai, ODI is closing this Preliminary Evaluation. The agency reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances. To review the reports cited in the Closing Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, go to NHTSA.gov.
