The Integrated Charge Control Unit failed despite having all related recall repairs/actions implemented. Failure occurred while pulling into a parking place after completing level 2 charging to 80%. The failure has not yet been confirmed by the dealer, but all common symptoms match this failure including hearing a pop sound from the rear of the vehicle followed by “Check Electrical System” indication and limited distance low power, low speed mode. Had this happened while driving at highway speed, the sudden loss in power and speed could have been dangerous to respond to and get off the highway safely. The vehicle is scheduled to be inspected by the dealer shortly.

Component or System Involved: High-voltage battery system — fault code P1AA700. The vehicle is currently located at an authorized Hyundai dealership and available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: The vehicle became undriveable due to a potential high-voltage battery failure, posing a significant risk of electrical hazard or loss of propulsion. I was advised by the dealership not to drive or retrieve the vehicle due to safety concerns. As the sole user of the vehicle in a household with children and daily transportation needs, this created a severe disruption and risk to personal and family safety, especially if the issue had occurred while driving. Confirmation of the Problem: The issue has been confirmed by the dealership, who retrieved the fault code. However, they are unable to complete diagnosis without Hyundai Corporate’s “Techline” technician, whose response is still pending as of this report. The vehicle has been at the dealership since June 30, 2025. Inspection: The dealership has begun inspection but cannot complete diagnosis or repair until Hyundai Corporate provides guidance. The vehicle has not been inspected by police or insurance, but it is under review by Hyundai’s technical assistance team. Warning Messages or Symptoms: Yes — prior to the failure, the vehicle displayed dashboard warning messages related to the high-voltage battery system, and the drivetrain became unresponsive. These warnings appeared just before the vehicle became unsafe to operate.

When i was out driving with my little daughter, in the middle of the road, the car showed a warning of “check electric system”. The car was very slow and went into limp mode. I had to quickly park at a shoulder. Called roadside assistance, they sent a tow truck within 40 mns, the car was completley dead when they arrived. They had to send another tow truck that arrived after another 35 mns. I had to wait in the heat with my little daughter till they transferred us to the dealer , the repair for the iccu failure took 2 weeks. Now i am very scared each time i drive the car that this might happen again.

ICCU failure leading to being stranded 120 miles from home as I returned from a vacation with my family. The vehicle was working fine for half of the trip, then after we stopped for lunch, the car went into a "limp mode" max of 25 mph as I was entering the highway. I got a warning telling me to inspect my electrical system and pull over immediately. There were no warning signs. The vehicle was towed to the nearest dealer (still 110 miles from home). The dealer confirmed what happened - an iccu failure where the 12v battery was not charging - and I had the iccu replaced. This is a problem impacting many Hyundai Ioniq cars. The dealer and manufacturer was not able to tell me why it happened or what I could do to try to prevent it happening again. I have no confidence in this car

The Integrated Charging Control Unit of the fully electric Hyundai Ioniq5 stopped working while I was driving my son home from the Zoo. I got a warning that there was an electrical system issue and I needed to immediately stop the car. The car lost power quickly, and I was luckily able to pull over into a parking lot and await a tow truck. This is a chronic saftey issue with Ioniq 5s and needs to be addressed.

I bought this ioniq 5 pre-owned at 10,000 miles on 6/21/25. Clean carfax and no active recalls. One mile off the lot the system I received the message "12V battery voltage low. Stop safely." The car completely turned off. Could not put it in neutral. I was stranded on the road and it could have caused an accident. I got it towed near an auto shop and bought a new battery, thinking it was just a dead 12V battery. The car turned on and seemed to resolved the issue, but after 20 minutes of driving, it completely turned off again on the road. Very dangerous. I dropped it off at Platinum Hyundai of Tracy dealership and am awaiting a diagnostic.

ICCU FAILURE. Car was being parked at night and there was a pop sound towards the back. It sounded like I ran over a branch. Immediately I received a “Check electrical vehicle system” warning light. The car could not be shifted into drive. It was towed the next day to the dealership. Oddly enough I had an appointment later that week with the same dealership to address the ICCU recall but part failed before it could be addressed. The car was able to be repaired within 10 days. No loaner provided because dealership had a 20 people waitlist. I had to rent a car instead. When looking into this issue online, a 10 day turnaround time seems on the shorter end of the typical timeframe. I’ve heard stories online (see Reddit) and seen YouTube videos of people waiting months.

My vehicle displayed a Check Electrical System failure warning and experienced a complete loss of electrical power. Since it is an electric car, the car would no longer run. No light including emergencies lights worked. This happened to me in my driveway. But it happens to other owners driving down the freeway and they suddently have to pull over. Hyundai advised me to have the car towed to the dealership service center where they diagnosed an ICCU failure. This has been happening to to 2-5% of Kia and Hyundai electric cars. I was told the ICCU was on extreme backorder. I waited ~6 weeks for my car to be repaired. Note that there were two recalls for the ICCU unit previously and I performed those recalls promptly. There were no other warnings at all before the Check Electrical Systems error and sudden loss of power.

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.
