2024 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 Complaints

As I began a drive cycle, I heard a pop sound and received the “check electric vehicle system” warning associated with ICCU failure. With ICCU failure, if I had continued to drive the 12V battery would have run to zero and the car would have died completely. Vehicle goes to dealer tomorrow for confirmation.

Known ICCU issue: the 12v battery died for no reason rendering the car undrivable.

The issue involved a failure of the 12V battery system in my Hyundai Ioniq 5, which powers essential electronics and allows the vehicle to operate. The battery suddenly lost charge while I was driving, causing the vehicle to become inoperable. The car was towed to a dealership, and the battery and related systems are available for inspection. My safety and the safety of others were put at risk because the failure occurred on the road, forcing me to pull over unexpectedly. This created a hazardous situation, especially in traffic, as it increased the risk of a collision or leaving me stranded in an unsafe area. The vehicle has been taken to a dealership for diagnosis, they had stated there is a recall on this vehicle, iccu unit failed and needs to be replaced. It has been inspected by the dealership service department, but not by police or insurance representatives. Prior to the failure, there were clear warning lights or messages indicating an issue. The problem appeared suddenly while driving, within 5 minutes the car shut down.

On [XXX], my 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 experienced a sudden and complete failure of the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU). The failure rendered the vehicle inoperable without warning, requiring it to be towed to a dealership. The vehicle is currently located at AutoNation Hyundai in North Richland Hills, TX and should be available for inspection upon request. This failure created a significant safety risk. The vehicle lost functionality unexpectedly, which could have resulted in a dangerous situation if it had occurred at highway speeds, in traffic, or in an unsafe location. A sudden loss of power or inability to restart the vehicle presents a clear hazard to both the driver and others on the road. Prior to the failure, there were no clear warnings indicating an imminent critical issue. A 12V battery issue was suspected at the time of failure, and roadside assistance replaced the battery, but this did not resolve the problem. The root cause was later identified as an ICCU failure. The problem has been confirmed by an authorized Hyundai dealership (AutoNation Hyundai, North Richland Hills, TX) on April 10, 2026. The dealership determined that the ICCU requires replacement, with an estimated minimum repair timeline of four weeks due to part availability. The vehicle has been inspected by Hyundai roadside assistance and an authorized Hyundai dealer. No inspection has been conducted yet by the manufacturer directly, law enforcement, or insurance representatives. This issue appears to be consistent with widely reported ICCU failures in Hyundai Ioniq 5 vehicles, suggesting a potential systemic defect that may warrant further investigation and possible recall action.

For the second time, the integrated control unit, ICCU, has failed to this is AFTER being replaced under the recall. The recall solution has not fixed the problem, and is a fake bandaid on a problem that means cars will totally stop working in the middle of the road. This is totally unsafe and unacceptable.

On 3/19/2026. Battery was at 20% SOC. Plugged in my home L2 charger. Car did not start. Took vehicle to dealer the next morning 3/20/2026. It was diagnosed as an ICCU failure. Parts ordered car left at dealer but still waiting on 4/9/2026 for issue to be resolved.

2/28/26 Driving home, heard a loud pop, notice is on the dash say check vehicle electrical system. Vehicle begins to slow down and eventually die. Called the manufacturer and had it towed to the dealership. The ICCU had failed.

My on Thursday, April 2, my 2024 Hyunda Ioniq 5 displayed the "Check Electrical System" message displayed. I had just started the car. I started to lose propulsion on a busy street [XXX] ). I managed to get the car to [XXX] and had to pull over. I had the car towed to the Luther Hyundai, [XXX] . On Monday, April 6, the dealer informed me the ICCU failed. The ICCU and a fuse were replaced. I picked up the car April 7. Although Hyundai has supposedly fixed the ICCU problem, it continues to fail, as mine did.

There were no dash warnings. The car slowed to 20MPH and then stopped just as we were about to pull onto a busy freeway. The dash stayed on and then went blank while I waited for the tow truck to take it back to the dealer. The tow truck driver was unable to move the car without jumping the dead battery to get the car to pull up the tow truck ramp. We were told it was an ICCU failure. The car was in the Hyundai dealer for replacement of the ICCU unit for approximately 10 days.

Car won’t start and is completely dead. Doors won’t open, including charge port door. Once you manually unlock car is totally dead inside. Took to dealer for an ICCU replacement under warranty but died again 1 week later. Another ICCU failure? Terrible.
