As I was driving home from work, a loud POP went off under my car, and sirens began to go off. I was given a critical error, and told to immediately contact a dealership. My car began to slow, and would only go 25 mph. Luckily for me I was within a few miles of a dealership, but if I wasn't so fortunate this would have been a much larger issue. The ICCU has failed, despite already getting Hyundai's recall for this issue performed. I am now without my car for an unknown quantity of time.

Electrical System
I own a 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 that experienced a complete 12V battery failure at under 500 miles of use, despite showing normal voltage levels (12.5V off, 13.25V while attempting a jump). The vehicle was undrivable and could not start, even though the main battery (MV) was at 70% charge. There were no prior warning lamps or messa…

I own a 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 that experienced a complete 12V battery failure at under 500 miles of use, despite showing normal voltage levels (12.5V off, 13.25V while attempting a jump). The vehicle was undrivable and could not start, even though the main battery (MV) was at 70% charge. There were no prior warning lamps or messages before the failure. The vehicle had to be towed and left inoperable for nearly 30 days. According to the servicing Hyundai dealership, the root cause was determined to be a failure caused by Hyundai’s own connected app, Bluelink — which the dealer explicitly said is the root cause for my batteries failure. Hyundai Motor America, however, has refused to acknowledge this diagnosis, and despite repeated inquiries over a 60-day period, has not provided any explanation or confirmation of the cause. They continue to point back to the dealer while providing no warranty-related answers, no documentation of testing done, and no safety assurance that the failure won’t recur. The issue puts safety at risk, as the 12V battery’s failure renders the entire EV completely disabled — without warning. This creates potential for owners to be stranded, especially if the issue occurs in unsafe or remote locations. In my case, roadside assistance failed to be able to pick up the vehicle twice, resulting in a 12-hour ordeal. Hyundai has made no effort to formally investigate the potential connection to Bluelink and appears to be suppressing acknowledgment of the defect trying to offer me a one month payment instead of acknowledging or confirming this is a possible issue that can happen again in the future contingent on me saying my concerns are resolved; they're not. The resolution involved a tech having to use a third party tech line & no data within the invoice. I believe this is a broader safety issue affecting other Hyundai EVs using the Bluelink system and that NHTSA should investigate whether this poses systemic risk across affected vehicles.

Since implementation of the recall (software update on ICCU) in January, the 12v battery has gone dead 3 times (every ~3 weeks) while the vehicle was parked overnight. It hadn't had this problem in the 6 months prior to the software update, and the dealer shop is unable to diagnose a problem. They say they are unable to reverse the software "fix" which seems to have caused the problem, and refuse to replace the ICCU.

Today, I had a scary situation on my 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 limited. While backing out of a parking space, I put my foot on the brake to place the car in drive and the car kept rolling back no matter what I did and almost crash into the car park across. I was able to finally stop the car by placing it into park repeatedly. I was inches from striking the car across when it finally came to a stop. I then attempted to place it in drive again and no dice. I had to turn the car off and back on to get it to respond and place it back to drive. Anyone else experience this helpless feeling? Quite scary. This vehicle has had the various ICCU updates performed.

I had my first ICCU recall issue, it was taken care of at Holler Hyundai in Orlando, Florida. I don't even remember seeing a recall email sent out to me, or even a call given about the ongoing recall issues. I found out about the ICCU issues from Reddit of all places, but post after post of people detailing their issues. My concern is that there's numerous post, about EV battery failure while driving or getting ready to take a trip. Imagine getting locked out of your car in freezing temperatures? Due to it being an EV it's a lot more difficult to start or get in, and I don't always carry my physical key. I only received on key, so imagine if I lose that one. You can't use the app or key fob to get in, cause everything works off the 12v battery which is in operable at that point. Hyundai is not addressing this issue with its customers, or even potential customers which is disheartening. It only takes one fatal mistake before something horrible happens. At this point I don't feel safe driving it, definitely won't plan any trip more than 20 miles. Have you guys heard any news on the ICCU issue, what's causing it mechanical, software or otherwise?

Driving on middle lane of fast freeway with kids in the car. The car began beeping lights of an electric malfunction, a 12v battery malfunction, an ICCU malfunction and then started to slow down all the way to 3 miles per hour and then it stopped in the middle of the freeway. A car behind us almost crashed into us and would have killed us. I feel very u safe and Hyundai will not do anything about it. It’s a one year old lease of a 2024 EV with barely 10k miles on it. They are not fixing in time and it also shows a recall that they didn’t accommodate or were able to schedule.

I received the safety recall letter and attempted to make an appointment with Modern Hyundai of Concord, NC. Service appointments were listed online beginning at the end of August and had available time slots, I wanted to check on any further availability so I called. Once I had the service department on the phone I was told that the earliest they would be able to schedule me is in October. I reiterated this was a safety recall and I purchased the vehicle from this dealership and was told that the dealership is a "high volume service center" and nothing could be done until October.
