The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5. While driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle shut down unexpectedly, leaving the contact stranded for several hours. A RED warning light was illuminated, indicating an electrical failure, followed by the battery warning light being illuminated, leading to the loss of power. The vehicle was towed to the nearest dealer to be diagnosed. The dealer determined that the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000.

My 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 suffered a sudden Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failure that put me in grave danger. As I left my workplace in the evening, I heard a “pop” sound and got the dashboard warning, “Check Electrical Vehicle System.” It was unclear what the warning meant. I had 65% charge left at that point. As I began driving, the gas pedal “stuck,” not allowing me to accelerate past 25 mph, and it felt like the car was dragging. I did not know what was happening. The “Check Electrical Vehicle System” warning returned but gave no indication of whether it was safe to drive or what to check in the electrical system. Driving very slowly, I made it out of the military base (my workplace), parked outside of a closed establishment, and called my husband. He told me to drive further up the road to a well-lit shopping area. I exited the parking lot and entered the intersection of a four-lane highway – and suddenly, when I was in the center about to turn in the direction of traffic, the car stopped and would not respond to the gas pedal. I could not accelerate and was stuck in the middle of the highway. After several frantic pushes on the gas pedal, I was able to coast downward to the shoulder and exit the vehicle. My husband and I had brought the car to the dealer in February 2025 for the December 20, 2024 ICCU recall (NHTSA Recall 24V-868, Hyundai Recall 272). The dealer merely inspected the car and updated its ICCU software. Per Hyundai guidance, it did not replace the ICCU itself. It is taking no apparent steps to do so for 2023 Ioniq 5 owners, leaving us in danger. The seriousness of this problem is compounded by the lack of adequate warning when it occurs out of the blue. The generic “Check Electrical Vehicle System” indicator on the dashboard did not indicate what precisely in the electrical system to check, how serious the issue was, or how much of the 12-volt battery power was left. Hyundai must rectify this issue before others are hurt.

This car (and many other Hyundai Ioniq5's) has stopped with very little warning twice in the two years that I have owned it. The first time was on a two lane highway with no shoulder. when it stopped there was no way to warn cars coming from behind because there was electricity at all and therefore no emergency flashers. This particular car is six months too old for the Washington State Lemon Law to apply. So far it has been reprogrammed twice and had the ICCU component replaced twice. I really don't think this car, and other Ioniqs with the same problem, on the road.

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.

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.

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.
