The engine/power of my electric EV6 died. It went into limp home mode (speed limited) briefly before dying completely. I restarted it and was able to get it to a parking spot before it died again, but I was just lucky I was on a surface street with parking. Dealership confirmed it was an ICCU failure

I see there is a lot of battery issues with KIA EV6 out lately; my car randomly died near my house and nothing was working, doors wouldn't open/close, hazard light wouldn't come on.. had the car towed to the dealership same day. they claim that they fixed my car properly and fixed the recall issue with the battery.. drove the car back home the same night. next morning; car is again dead and nothing is working; I feel very unsafe driving this car and i see online hundreds of kia EV 6 is having same issues. I don't think Kia is properly addressing this issue or the technicians know how to properly fix this.
