Vehicle's charging port appears to be overheating to the point that thermal throttling is occurring when attempting to charge. This issue first occurred in mid-May of 2024. Vehicle charged as normal before then. Vehicle was serviced by dealership for this issue on 05/29/2024. A software update was applied that did not solve the problem. In an attempt to find updates on this problem, I contacted Hyundai Customer Care by phone on 05/30/2024. Hyundai Customer Care agent read a scripted response that was first released to the public in 20203 and advised to wait for an unknown amount of time for an unknown fix which may or may not come to pass. Hyundai Customer Care had no updates more recent than the 2023 release from which the Customer Care agent read. This appears to be a known issue with no actual fix available to the customer and no ETA on when such a fix might be released.

First indication something was going awry was when attempting to charge the car. Heard normal click indicating charge had started, but no audible announcement that charging had started. Car started throwing "Check electrical system," then power plummeted and became unresponsive to accelerator, followed by "Stop car. Check electrical system," then finally something like, "Battery is being discharged by external devices."** Car had to be towed about 60 miles to nearest Hyundai EV service center. Eight days later, I got a call from service saying that the ICCU needs to be replaced. They will update me once ETA of part is known.

The vehicle made a loud popping noise and lost motive power. Dashboard lit up with battery symbol and said to check electric vehicle system. Dealer service is certain it is an ICCU failure. The vehicle had the software update to “fix” the ICCU issue thousands of miles ago.

The car loses power, slows down dramatically, and will not respond to the accelerator pedal. This failure has happened twice. The first time I was driving at about 40MPH on a side street when the car started slowing down with no warning and limped along at about 20MPH. I could not get it to move faster so I put my flashers on and made my way to the side of the street, pulled off of the road and shut the car off. When I restarted the car it drove normally. I reported the failure to Hyundai and they had never heard of this happening. They kept the car for 2 days and couldn't replicate the problem. That was about 2 months ago. Yesterday, 3/4/24, I was on the freeway going about 74MPH using the smart cruise control. I had just changed lanes when the car lost power and I got the message, "Smart cruise conditions not met." My speed dropped to the low 40's as other cars were whipping past me. Even though I floored the accelerator I got no response. I started the flashers, made my way to the right lane and got off on an exit ramp. I pulled off to the side of the ramp, parked the car and turned it off. Once again, when I restarted the car it performed normally. This is very dangerous! I could have easily been rear ended by another, faster car on the freeway since I slowed down so quickly without braking lights lighting. I brought it back to the dealer again today and they have kept it to run diagnostics. I don't expect that they will find any problem this time either.

This model has known issue. As I found after it occurred to my brand new IONIQ 5 . It has only 320mi. It had 87% battery and all of sudden it stop on road. No power on dashboard. After taking to service station they found “ "Inspected and found code P1A9096- DC/ DC converter input voltage sensor fail. Referenced campaign 997 for concern. With code present, per TSB, replace ICCU and fuse." This same issue I noticed in 2022 after reading forum. After putting my car in service station still I don’t have my car. It’s almost 17 days. If this car had recall I could have saved my time and unnecessary effort. Plus thank god it was local city read( school zone) if I was in highway and same thing happen to me it might be life threatening situations.

Car: 4 month old 2023 Ioniq 5, Starting on September 12, 2023 my car would not take any charge AT ALL, effectively make my car useless as I am down to 10 miles of range. For the next several days I tried multiple chargers at different locations trying both 350 kW and 7kW chargers. Other cars were able to charge their cars immediately after I moved from the charger. I have read that the software update I am going to get will reduce my charging capacity rate to fully charge slower. This car is not performing at the stats I chose it for. I will not be able to use this car if it cannot take fast charge for a full charge. I was not made aware of this issue that was well known to Hyundai (they have been dealing with this issue with its earlier Ioniq models) before going forward with this car. Nor would I have decided on this car if this issue was known to me.

While driving on the highway, after about 45 minutes, the electric vehicle goes into Turtle power-limited mode. The vehicle instantly reduces in speed from 70mph to as low as 35 - 45 mph. There are no warning lights or sounds. If you immediately stop the car and let it sit, it will work again temporarily but after 30 - 40 more min or less of driving, it will again go into turtle mode. Additionally, acceleration is non-existent when its power is limited, inhibiting the ability to safely drive as required to pull over or across intersections. This has been a constant event occurring multiple times and each time the vehicle has been on a freeway or highway. The dealer applied the repairs in the photo supplied, but they did not work.

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.
