This morning I heard a "pop" sound from the back of my 2023 Ioniq 5. A short while later a warning message appeared about the cars electrical system. A minute or two later a "Stop Vehicle and check power supply" message appeared. The infotainment screen said "A possible condition has occurred with your vehicle. A full system check is recommended TODAY." This is likely a malfunction of the ICCU. I have already taken this car in 2 or 3 times for recalls related to the ICCU, including one dealership visit within the last 30 days. As this is an electrical vehicle, electrical problems could leave me stranded. Without propulsion I would be at risk of getting hit on the highway. The same error message appeared at the service center. The car has been at the dealership all day, and I don't expect to get it back anytime soon. There was no warning of the failure before today.

Was driving in Bellevue, WA leaving a parking lot. Heard a "pop" sound, and immediately had a "Check Electrical System" warning come up on the dash. From previous experience in 2024, was aware this requires immediate dealer inspection, so started driving to the dealer 6 miles away. After less than a mile, lost most power but was able to drive slowly into an office parking lot. Called Hyundai Roadside Assistance who sent a flat bed tow truck to transport the car to the dealer. ICCU was replaced in May 2024 after similar symptoms. The current ICCU (which is likely the failed component) was in service for less than a year.

These cars had an open campaign earlier in the year to check for faulty ICCUs. Mine was check in Jan and deemed to be good. In early Feb I was driving home alone late at night and suddenly I was unable to go faster than 20mph and in a matter of minutes the car shut off. It had to be towed and the dealer informed me the ICCU failed. It was very scary and extremely dangerous. This has been happening so often with the Ioniq 5's and there should be a mass recall.

On March 20, 2025, my 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 displayed the error "Stop check vehicle power supply" and abruptly shut down during rush-hour traffic, leaving my young son and me stranded on a heavily congested bridge. Immediately, the car’s display went dark, doors wouldn't unlock, and the gear shifter was immobilized. With no emergency functions available, we were completely trapped. On a slight incline, I had to continuously hold the brake pedal to prevent rolling forward into increasingly aggressive traffic, making an already frightening situation terrifying for my child. Police arrived but struggled to assist preventing the car from moving. After several tense minutes, the dashboard briefly flickered back on, enabling me to unlock the doors. AAA identified a dead 12V battery, replaced it at my expense, but the critical error persisted, causing another complete shutdown shortly thereafter. The vehicle was towed to Hyundai of Bedford, where technicians diagnosed the issue as a failed ICCU and fuse, parts that are now backordered due to high number of vehicals having this same issue. Alarmingly, Hyundai plans to replace these faulty parts with identical models, despite my vehicle having completed all recall updates. This means the dangerous malfunction could occur again without warning, posing ongoing severe safety risks to my child, myself and those around use. This deeply traumatic event exposed critical vulnerabilities in the Hyundai Ioniq 5, especially dangerous for families, elderly drivers, or anyone caught in similar emergencies. The absence of functional basic safety measures left my son and me unnecessarily vulnerable. My trust in this vehicle and any thing using the same ICCU is permanently broken. Hyundai urgently needs reliable, redundant safety systems to prevent such life-threatening scenarios. Until then, we cannot feel safe or secure in these vehicles.

The first time the "aux" battery was not charging completely. 2nd time pretty much same issue, they claimed to have performed a software update, 3rd time warning lights came on "Problem, check electrical system" ..something like this. They told me to bring the vehicle to the dealership. After reading the problems stem from the ICCU, I decided to call them to ask if I should tow it in, due to all the warnings. After this we could not even get into the vehicle or drive it. Took us and the tow driver 4 attempts to get it out of the garage, down driveway and it had to be pulled onto the flat bed. They agreed and said that if there were any tow fees, they would pay them. Furthermore they said they would supply a vehicle to use while mine was being repaired. This was on Jan 25th, they still have not returned my vehicle, claiming they are waiting on parts, I've had to call them to check on it, this week NO contact what so ever.

PE23011 · 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.
