On Monday Dec 15 I was on the Coranado bridge in San Diego heading on the island. A warning flashed about the electric system. Then, towards the end of the bridge, the car immediately slowed down suddenly and I could feel the regenerative breaking. I had to time or opportunity to get over. By the grace of God, traffic started to slow as we got near the end of the bridge and the car was able to go roughly 20 MPH on the side roads with my foot all the way down on the accelerator pedal. With my hazard lights on, I was able to drive closer to where I was meeting my wife and find a parking lot to turn into so a tow truck could get me. It was terrifying. I’m alive by some miracle and I’m very lucky I was meeting my family and they weren’t with me.

The contact owns a 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact stated that the message "Check Electric Vehicle System" and DTC: P0C7300 - System Motor Control Problem Detected had been displayed intermittently on the instrument panel. The contact stated that the DTC notification was persistently displayed on the Hyundai Blue link Mobile App. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times, but the contact was informed that the failure could not be duplicated because the messages and the DTC were no longer displayed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and the contact was informed that she would receive a call back within 2-3 days. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.

ICCU failure
Nov 10, 2025
Last March 12 2025 I heard a pop coming out of a parking lot and warning message appeared. I was able to drive at decreased speed to the dealer. They diagnosed it to be an ICCU failure. It took 6 weeks to get it replaced.

While accelerating onto a road with cars approaching from behind, vehicle entered limp mode and was restricted to 25 MPH. I was forced to leave the roadway to avoid a collision with the vehicle behind. The street this occurred on has a speed limit of 40 MPH. The vehicle's normal acceleration was sufficient to ensure a safe gap to the approaching car, but the time it took to recognize and react to the unexpected behavior reduced this gap. The dealer diagnosed this as an ICCU failure related to safety recall 272. All prior recalls were complete at the time of the incident.

I had ICCU software recall done in spring 2025 then Vehicle died twice while driving on highway, ...suddenly. "warning 12 volt batt low pull over" stranding my family twice on highway. could not operate anything. Mc Govern Hyundai said it was fixed after 44 days. 2 days later failed again .dealer said it was ok again but would not replace ICCU or 12v batt. the amber light that indicates when !2v batt. is being charged would never come on. they said they found nothing wrong.

Dear NHTSA, On [XXX] at [XXX] CST, my 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL experienced a sudden ICCU failure. While reversing into my driveway, I heard a loud “pop,” followed by warning messages: “Stop vehicle and check power supply” and “Check electric vehicle system.” A DTC scan showed code P1A90(96). The car became inoperable and had to be towed to a Hyundai dealership. The dealer confirmed ICCU failure and replaced both the ICCU and fuse on 6/17/2025. However, the replacement was not a redesigned part—it was the same model that failed. I purchased this vehicle in March 2025 as a Certified Pre-Owned with ~12,000 miles. All recall-related ICCU updates had been completed before this incident. There were no warning signs before the failure. This failure could have been dangerous had it occurred on a highway, in extreme weather, or far from help with my [XXX] daughter with me. I no longer feel safe driving this car. Hyundai’s recall remedy is clearly not effective, and they continue replacing defective ICCUs with the same flawed units. They have not disclosed the root cause or implemented a permanent fix. I urge NHTSA to: Investigate ongoing ICCU failures despite recall compliance. Mandate a stop-sale of affected vehicles until a real fix is found. Require Hyundai to disclose the root cause. Consider a buyback program if no safe solution is available. This is a serious safety risk. These failures will continue without regulatory action.

ICCU (Intergrated Charging Control Unit) failed after two mandatory recalls were completed. Vehicle is not drivable as it’s awaiting for a replacement ICCU (backordered). Replacement ICCU will not remedy the issue since it has not been improved upon from the original failure. Vehicle shutdown on a two lane highway with a 65mph speed limit. The section where the vehicle shutdown was without cellular service and on a bend with no shoulder, which increased the risk of an accident. The problem was reproduced in other vehicles using the same part. The component has been inspected by the manufacturer and dealer with a temporary remedy of replacement. Warning lights appeared after the failure occurred; essentially giving the driver no warning or time to react. The vehicle displayed a warning message to pull over and turn off vehicle immediately. Power was reduced to 15mph for about 15-20 minutes.

Started car and proceeded to drive to work. 1 mile from home, heard a "pop" noise and the car displayed "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning and went into a "turtle" mode that limited speed. Luckily I was on a side street and had not yet made the turn onto the main highway or it may have obstructed traffic or resulted in a crash. I was able to return home and have the car towed back to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair. The dealer identified the issue as the ICCU fuse and ICCU itself that needed replacing. All previous recalls and software updates were completed, including the latest ICCU recall (272?) which was completed on December 3. There have now been multiple software updates and recalls targeting this part, but it still resulted in the vehicle losing power and being inoperable.

The tubing that is used to connect the windshield washer reservoir to the nozzles that deliver the washer fluid to the windshield is prone to rodent activity. This tubing has been punctured by rodents twice now - with one intervening tube replacement. I have to replace the tubing again today. It has been less than two weeks since I last replaced the tubing. The replacement tubing was purchased from a Hyundai dealership. It appears that this will be an ongoing issue that will impact the operational safety of the vehicle.

I purchased a 2024 Ionic 5 on January 29th on a day without rain/snow. The first time it rained I found out that there was no rear wiper. I assumed there to be one as its a SUV with a slanted back window, not straight up and down. When it rains or snows the water/snow just sits on the back window, making it impossible to see out the back window. I know every Ionic 5 is like this. On researching the 2025's now have them due to customer feedback. I don't believe this is a convenience issue, but a safety one not being able to see out the back window.
Apr 02, 2025
It is impossible to see through the back window when it rains. It has no wiper--and unlike other cars, it is not aerodynamic and does not push rain off the back windshield. When it rains, you cannot see anything. Due to the location of the backup camera, it also becomes wet and you cannot see anything when doing in reverse through the window or backup camera when it's raining.

Overnight, the windshield spontaneously developed a huge crack going from the A-pillar to halfway across the windshield. The car was parked at the time.

I have a lease on a 2024 Hyundai Icoprniq 5. There is a recall due to ICCU issues. We had this car in service but it did not fix the issue. The car is now sitting dead in my driveway and will not move. Hyundai is refusing to do anything to fix the problem.

Vehicle lost power on a two lane highway with a 55mph speed limit, which increased the risk of an accident. Warning lights appeared after the failure occurred; essentially giving the driver little to no warning. The vehicle kept slowing down to 30-25 mph, but fortunately close enough to home and was able to slowly roll into the garage. The vehicle was towed to the dealership and will take 2 months for the ICCU and ICCU fuse to be replaced due to backordered parts. This occurred after an ICCU update was done in 12/24.

On Monday May 12, 2025, while driving my Ioniq5 (2024) several warnings appeared concerning the EV electrical system. One warning dealt with 12 volt battery issue and other warning alerted the entire vehicle's electrical system was failing with instruction to stop driving vehicle immediately. I was out of town and my car was towed to local hyundai dealership. The problem appears to be a faulty ICCU component and parts have been ordered. Having my brand new EV turn off in traffic is scary and this experience has been frustrating and nerve wrecking. Knowing Hyundai was aware of this problem makes it even worse.

Auto lost all power. No instruments visible. Propulsion system would not charge. Thankfully vehicle at a stop when occurred. Unable to drive. Car as dead as a home in a power outage. Everything dark. Nothing electrical worked. Had to use emergency manual key to enter vehicle. Tow truck driver said this was the 4th Hyundai Ioniq 5 he towed that week. All dead. Car at dealer awaiting diagnostics, which because of backlog, could take 3 or 4 weeks.

The ICCU failed while driving which left me with an undriveable vehicle on the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to the dealership and repaired; however, the part is the same and may fail again.
Dec 09, 2025
Hyundai is ignoring the fact that many Ioniq 5 have an ICCU defect that happens without warning and can leave you stranded with a bricked car that you can’t drive. They have a software recall for it that I had performed at the dealer. This did not solve the problem because it failed yesterday and I was stranded far from home. They continue to put this same part in the 2025 model. I have a 2024. Brand new cars are having the same problem which requires the whole unit to be replaced with the same unit that can go bad. I know people who it has happened to multiple times. They need to issue a recall that replaces the entire unit with a redesigned one. Not the same exact part. Everyone of these cars is a ticking time bomb that can leave a person stranded.

The car made a loud popping noise and immediately started displaying electrical system fault errors. The car propulsion stopped within 15 seconds and was not able to be moved after. I was on the freeway and just barely made it over to the side. Car was not able to be towed by a regular tow truck because the electrical system was gone and the car was not able to be shifted into neutral. Jump starting the battery did nothing. Car was sent to the dealer who confirmed that the car sustained an ICCU failure which controls the entire battery electric system. The ICCU had to be replaced. There is already a mandatory recall on the vehicle regarding the ICCU. The recall was to check the status and confirm that the ICCU was working properly and in good condition. I had this recall done BEFORE the ICCU failed, so even though the recall check was performed, the ICCU still failed and put me in a very dangerous situation. The car is 6 months old and has 6200 miles on the odometer.

On [XXX], I was in New Jersey waiting for my mother to finish shopping. In an effort to preserve battery life, I turned off the engine while waiting. Upon her return, I placed my foot on the brake pedal and started the car. As soon as I shifted the gear into "Drive," the vehicle made an unusual sound and began to roll forward. At no point did I remove my foot from the brake pedal, and I immediately applied more pressure. However, the brakes did not respond. Panicked by the fact that a parked car was directly in front of me, I quickly shifted the gear into "Park" to engage the emergency brake. Fortunately, this action brought the vehicle to a stop, and no damage occurred. I turned the vehicle off and restarted it after which the brakes functioned properly. The experience was extremely alarming. This is not the first time I have experienced this issue. On [XXX], a similar incident occurred while I was stopped at a red light. At that time, I assumed I may not have applied sufficient pressure to the brake pedal. The car rolled forward and made contact with the vehicle in front of me, resulting in a minor accident and a cracked front headlight. Given that this has now happened twice, I am concerned about the possibility of a recurring brake system failure and am worried for my safety and the safety of others. - Brake Failure, it is available for inspection upon request - if I didn’t act quickly and pressed the emergency brake, it would have resulted in an accident. Damage to my car and damage to the car In front of me. And could have resulted in injury to myself. -I have not taken the vehicle to the dealership or service center yet as I have not driven it since the incident. However, I have scheduled an appointment for this upcoming weekend. -there were no warning lamps messages or other symptoms prior to the failure.

Error message indicate loss of charge capacity. Car slowed down, with enough range to pull off the road. Dealer indicates the integrated charge control unit (ICCU) failed, and quit charging the 12 volt system. Waiting for parts (1 month so far). Seems like the same issue reported under NHTSA recall 272 for the Ioniq 5 Does Hyundai have a list of failed ICCU’s, and whether there might be a batch of these units that are failing, or is this just a random occurrence?
Apr 06, 2025
About 2 minutes after I started driving, I got a "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply" warning. The car slower to about 20 mph and would not go any faster. After returning home, I had the car towed to the dealership. Hyundai said that the ICCU unit failed. This was days after the same dealer performed recall work that was supposed to address ICCU issues.

On Monday morning (3/24/2025), my 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 lost power and I received the "Check electric vehicle system warning." After that I received another warning that said, "Stop vehicle and check power supply." The car had lost most of its power by this point, but I was less than a mile from my house, so I was able to make it home by turning the car on and off every couple of blocks. It was towed from my house to the dealership the same morning, where it's been ever since. I was just informed that the ICCU needs replacement. My understanding is that this is a prolific problem with this car, and I'm very concerned because my car is less than 8 months old and has less than 8,000 miles on it.

Backing vehicle out of driveway and went to engage brakes and they did not engage. began rolling backwards down street with steep grade. Kept stepping on brakes with no response. Had to turn into a parked vehicle to keep from rolling down steep grade and potentially off a substantial cliff. Happened today and dealership said that it may be because the "battery for the brake" had not received a charge from the main battery. Very dangerous and never disclosed. If I had not taken evasive action I could have easily been killed. Car is being dropped off at collision center today but is available for inspection. There were no warnings or other symptoms.

ICCU failure, resulting in 12v discharge and complete immobilization of car. The car's safety systems gave sufficient warning to allow me to get somewhere safe -- but the nature of the failure also disabled it's ability to maintain a call with blulink to coordinate a pickup.

1. Uncertain which part failed. 2. safety was put at risk due to car not able to accelerate. Car would not go over 20 miles an hour on the interstate access road where traffic was going by at 50 –60 mph - four-way flashers were on and had to pull off at the first available turn but it was scary 3. Contacted local Hyundai; they are investigating a possible loaner, but haven’t said what they will do. 4. No inspections yet. 5. No warning or unusual events prior to lack of power/lack of acceleration. 6. Internet search showed that this problem has occurred to others.

I received this car new on 9/2/2024. I was driving at the freeway speed of traffic on 9/5/2024 when there was a sudden alarm and warning lights flashing on the dashboard with a message that said “Stop vehicle and check brake system.” At this same time, the brakes stopped functioning normally, and I had to use extreme pressure with my foot pressing down on the brake pedal all the way to the floor to have the car slow down even marginally. All of this happened with traffic in front, behind, and on both sides of me going 65 mph! I was very luckily able to maneuver to the right lane and slowly decrease speed without getting rear-ended and without slamming into a car in front of me while going at high speed unable to stop. While waiting for a tow, I left the car on, as I slowly edged forward to a safer stopping location. The flashing red ring around the message to “stop vehicle and check brake system” remained, and then just after moving forward, another message with an amber circle around it said “Check ABS system.” This latter message stayed on for only a short time, then was replaced by the initial message. I had the car towed to the dealership, and their assessment was that there was a failure of the IEP module that communicates between aspects of the braking system. The final service report is attached, confirming the need for replacement of the IEP assembly. I was very lucky to come away from this event with nothing more than a very frightening experience. I hope that this report will initiate a recall to prevent a similar situation happening to someone else, and hopefully avoid tragedy involving serious injury or death.

My vehicle was 4 weeks old. On Friday 6/28/24, my vehicle displayed the following message on the dashboard, "Check Brake System". It disappeared later, and reappeared on the next day. I checked Hyundai's app, Bluelink. There was a alert on Bluelink, "Attention Needed". I opened the alert and it said that there was a Diagnostic Trouble Code, DTC C123501, that originated on 6/30/24. I took the vehicle to the dealership, Hyundai of North Miami, on the next business day, [XXX]. That morning, [XXX], as I started the vehicle, as I stepped on the brake to start the vehicle, the brake was considered "softer" than it was prior and I could feel the brake pedal go nearly all the way down to the base of the vehicle floor. On [XXX] they informed me that the ICCU needed to be replaced. They said that they hoped to have the ability to order the part on 7/5/24, as the computer system needed to do so was not working, and the part could potentially arrive in approximately 1 week.

My 2024 ioniq 5 has no recall but they have a well known issue where the ICCU does not charge the 12v as expected. this results in loss of power. In my situation, i was driving on the freeway at 65MPH when i got the low 12V battery message and my car slowed down and I was not able to accelerate at even street speed. I was fortunate enough to pull the car over from the left lane to the right shoulder as the traffic was light. This could have easily resulted in an accident.

Mine snagged on something and was torn from the terminal block and has disable the airbag. Hyundai denies it a defective design or assembly and had denied warranty coverage but wants $10,000 to enable it - $6,933 for the part - $3,000 labor. The driver seat moves back and forth automatically when entering and existing - there is no control of the movement and anything more than 1/2 high is able to become tangled and disable the airbag without warning. Hyundai via emails to their legal counsel as well as customer care is fully advised but has denied warranty status or other fix or accomadation. The warrenty for this car - for which coverage has been denied - is in full force per Hyundai's express terms. This is a critical safety issue which upon limited investagation effects numous ioniq5's of multiple years besides the 2024 limited. Note also the 2024 limited has a movable drivers seat foot rest which is prone to sweep matters under the seat when lowered.

The forward collision system will intermittently erroneously detect objects in front of the vehicle while stopped or in motion. While driving on the freeway, this will cause the car to engage the emergency braking system endangering those in and around the car. While stop to the stoplight, this causes the front detection alarm to go off. The dealership has reproduced the error and tried software updates and replacing sensors, but the problem persists.

While backing into my driveway if a car passes in front on the street my car will not continue backing up. This also happens in parking lots. While backing out of my driveway onto the street and staying in the lane closest to the driveway, traffic in the far lane will cause the car to stop moving even though the street is more than wide enough to accommodate both cars without crossing the double yellow lines. As I live on a busy street this can cause an accident. In both cases turning off the parkin sensors with the dashboard button has no effect.

The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failed while I was driving to work. I was on the highway in the middle of a blizzard and the "Check Electric Vehicle Systems" warning popped up on my dash. It then when into a turtle mode and my car would no longer go above 15 - 20 mph. I had to exit the freeway very abruptly because my speed was dropping quickly. It was already extremely dangerous driving that day, this just added on top of it. It is available for inspection, it's been sitting at my dealership since March 6th because the ICCU is back ordered and there is no ETA when one will become available. The dealership has inspected and confirmed it is a faulty ICCU. There were no other problems with the car until the warning appeared on the dash. The ICCU has had 3 manufacturer recalls for the ICCU previously. Which I have gone in to the dealership for.

My wife was parking the 2024 ioniq and it lurched forward at a high rate of speed and slammed into another car parked in our driveway and drove that vehicle through our home garage door. She feels certain that her foot was on the brake, but even if she accidentally slipped and appleid the brake the forward collision system should have prevented the accident additionally the impact occurred with such force it is unlikely due to human error as it pushed our very heavy 4Runner back 3 feet and thorough a closed garage door.

On March 22, 2025, our 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 suffered a sudden, complete loss of power while driving at night, after receiving Hyundai’s recall service in January. While driving on city roads, the car displayed “Check Battery” errors despite the main EV battery showing ~75% charge. After stopping, we had AAA install a new 12V battery, which did not resolve the issue. Minutes later, while crossing a Y-shaped highway interchange, the car lost the ability to accelerate, leaving us stranded in a dangerous area. Hyundai Roadside Assistance gave an 89-minute ETA and failed to dispatch a tow capable of transporting our family of three. We were forced to call our insurance to tow the vehicle to safety. The car is now inoperable at a dealership. Hyundai has not followed up. This is a major safety concern — involving either the 12V system or software post-recall — and could impact other vehicles. Photos, screenshots, and documentation are available.

When driving in i-Pedal, which is a "one pedal driving option", sometimes after pausing the car rolls backs several inches. This appears to be a defect with the powetrain, regenerative braking engine, or otherwise. Hyundai's dealership has been advised of this issue; they have escalated this internally. A car in drive forward should never due to electrical or software reasons be told to move backwards -- which is what is happening here.

When on a highway with lane-keeping assist engaged, the car sometimes steers into the left-hand lane. It seems to happen most often when the road bends to the right. The car straddles the lane divider into the fast lane to the left. This occurs in otherwise perfect conditions: sunny, dry days on roads with clear white stripes demarking the lanes. I must fight with it to get it back in the proper lane. This is very dangerous. I'm convinced it will cause a high-speed crash. Another driver I spoke with said she had seen the same problem and wouldn't use the lane guidance because of it. I'm extremely cautious when I use it now. The problem has happened multiple times.

While turning a corner at low speed to enter a parking lot, the right rear tire lifted up onto the curb. The car stopped at a parking spot 100ft later. A low tire pressure alarm indicated an issue, upon inspection there was an audible hiss and the right rear of the car was lower than the other sides. As there was no spare, roadside assistance was contacted and towed the car to the nearest dealership for estimate. The dealer found the right rear wheel was bent on the inside and the wheel, tire, pressure sensor would need to be replaced. The cost was $1,612.68 and was covered by insurance. The point of failure on the wheel was not at the site of impact with the curb. The right rear wheel/tire would touch the curb on the outside first. There was no observable damage to the outside wheel. The inside wheel would have been exposed to much less force, most due to the mass of the car lifted on that corner. If not related to the specific wheel, but to the design, repeat incidents can happen when hitting potholes or other road obstacles/debris and result in a quick deflation while at speed. There was no visible damage, cracks, impressions on the tire. Only the rim was visibly damaged by this incident. The car had been purchased 4 days prior.

I took my 2024 limited Ioniq 5 to the dealership [XXX] to have a TSB looked at and because on [XXX], I took out the cabin air filter out of the car, as I have been noticing a smell of chemical in the cabin of the car. I noticed that the filter was covered in blue windshield wiper fluid and smelled of the same chemical smell as what my wife and I had been smelling and what I believe has been giving us headaches on long trips when driving to San Antonio, Texas to visit our grandson over the last two months. The Technicians at the Hyundai Dealership where I took my car had conducted an inspection and found the filter was covered in windshield fluid and noted that it is most likely caused by a defect in manufacturing or design within the vents where the fluid drains. Which also means that rainwater or water from washing the car could also be going into the cabin air filter housing. The dealership informed me that they have taken pictures and will forward to Hyundai as part of the process however they believe that this could result in a recall, as they noted that there is not a fix, they can provide to stop the fluid from going into the housing and that it is a health risk among other things. They noted that they believe this to be on the new 2024 models as they have not had the issue on the 2022-2023 models. I am concerned that drivers such as myself are being exposed to the effects of inhaling these fluids which include Headaches, blurred vision, vomiting and other unpleasant effects related to inhaling the vapors from this fluid. I only have this one car and cannot simply avoid driving it in weather where I would have to use my wipers and fluid. I would like to have this defect corrected ASAP to avoid any long-term health effects. The dealership was unable to provide a loaner vehicle and I have to wait until Hyundai is able to work a solution or more people complain about it.

The collision detection and early warning system behaves in a manner that deceives the driver into believing a collision is imminent every time the car begins to reverse out of a normal parking spot you find in a parking lot. Despite the car knowing the vehicle is in the reverse gear the driver will begin receiving audible, visible, and haptic feedback alering the driver of an imminent collision. After pausing the procedure of vacating a parking spot to determine where the car has detected a collision the HUD indicates that it is the sensors in the front of the car that were detecting a possible collision despite the car being in reverse and moving away from the objects the front sensors detected. Furthermore, these alerts don't begin until you begin reversing which makes the situation very dangerous for all parties as the driver is now having to freeze and reassess again before proceeding. But the most dangerous problem about this scenario I am describing is that I as a driver have now gotten used to these "false" positives and as a result I assume any alerts I here while backing out are just the front sensors being noisy when it could be someones child behind the car I am driving. Fix this! How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? High risk. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No. Working as intended from all research I have found online from other Ioniq 5 owners.
