2025 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 Complaints

My 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 experienced a complete and sudden loss of drive power at high speed, generating open fault code DTC P1A9096 (Internal ICCU Failure) [24V-204]. This failure completely matches the component and safety hazard profile under active Federal Safety Recalls 24V-204 and 24V-868 [24V-204].The vehicle was repaired at an authorized retail facility, Hyundai of El Cajon. The facility's un-finalized pre-invoice explicitly verified the ICCU failure code but deliberately omitted the federal safety recall context, routing the mechanical intervention under an internal manufacturer 'TSB 24-EV-004H' to hide the defect from consumer safety databases [24V-204].This represents a deceptive administrative effort to under-report active federal safety recall failures on newer model inventories across the E-GMP platform architecture [24V-204]. I am requesting a formal safety defect enforcement review into the manufacturer's regional reporting data.

The vehicle was released to me as repaired by an authorized Hyundai dealer earlier the same day. While driving home, the vehicle entered reduced-power/turtle mode and lost propulsion capability. This is the third failure of the electrical/propulsion system in under three months on a vehicle less than one year old, and it occurred within hours of a warranty repair.

While driving at 65–70 mph in rain, the vehicle emitted a repeated audible alarm from beneath the rear seat, then suffered a complete loss of motive power at highway speed. No warning light, message, or indicator appeared on the instrument cluster at any point. The vehicle was taken to an authorized Hyundai dealer the following day.

While operating the vehicle, the instrument cluster displayed a “Check electric vehicle system” warning with a red vehicle-with-exclamation icon. The vehicle failed to charge when plugged in; state of charge was 90%. The vehicle was towed via Bluelink to an authorized Hyundai dealer. No prior issues and no damage history.

Check electric system popped up. DTC: P1AD300 Critical hybrid/ev battery system fault involving abnormal cell voltage deviation 9,902 miles

SAFETY DEFECT REPORT: 2025 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 HIGH-VOLTAGE BATTERY FAILURE On Sunday, July 5, 2026, at approximately 24,000 miles, the vehicle suddenly displayed a critical dashboard safety alert notifying me of an electrical propulsion failure and explicitly instructing me not to drive the vehicle. The sudden failure entirely disabled the vehicle's driving power and compromised its operational safety. The vehicle was removed from my possession via a flatbed tow on Wednesday, July 8, 2026, and delivered to Southern States Hyundai. On July 11, 2026, the dealership service technicians diagnosed a total high-voltage traction battery pack failure. The dealer opened Repair Order 9651579, and Hyundai Corporate approved a full warranty replacement of the $28,000 battery system. The vehicle remained out of service due to this safety defect for 21 cumulative days until the component replacement was completed on July 29, 2026.

I need to report a serious vehicle safety concern involving a catastrophic front-right tire failure at highway speed. I am requesting a Hyundai case number and preservation of all physical evidence. Please preserve the failed tire, detached tread assembly, bead remnants, wheel, TPMS components and all service records. These items constitute material evidence necessary to determine whether the initiating cause was underinflation, rapid pressure loss, mounting damage, belt separation, bead failure or a manufacturing defect. The vehicle had been returned after approximately one month at a repair facility. After the incident, the three remaining tires measured 41, 35 and 35 psi, while the vehicle placard specifies 38 psi. The pre-failure pressure of the destroyed tire is unknown.

EV system not working on car with 8k miles on it. Dealer backed up and cannot offer rental car. This is a safety issue for me . This is a KNOWN issue for Hyundai and they are not recalling and their dealers are not equipped to resolve quickly.

Systemic failure of the electrical architecture and Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) resulting in a sudden, catastrophic loss of motive power. Over 14 months of ownership, this vehicle has suffered four distinct, electrical and charging failures. On June 6, 2026, the vehicle experienced a total ICCU failure. All lights in the car went dark and lost all power without warning, creating an immediate and life-threatening hazard to myself . The vehicle had to be towed. Three prior repair attempts for charging and 12V battery failures were made by the dealer/. They replaced the ICCU, the car currently runs.. The replaced ICCU has not been redesigned and as a result the car is unsafe to take out on the highway or on a long drive.

The car entered a failed ICCU state (not confirmed until the car was looked at by Hyundai at the dealership) while I was driving down to Ano Nuevo regional park. Received a warning on the dash that said that electrical system has failed and to pull over. It restricted me from going over 10 mph on Highway 1 and I eventually pulled over the side of the road and got towed to the dealership. The car is home with me now but I do not feel safe driving this vehicle after all of the reports of ICCU failures. I am very concerned this will happen again and in a more dangerous situation. I was also stranded by this car in March 2026 with a dead battery.
