What 399 owners told NHTSA about the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N

Electric Drive System Inoperable, sustained an immediate failure upon engaging in Drive mode. Dashboard lit up with warning lights and messages. Luckily was just pulling out onto road when vehicle completely died. Tow service unable to start vehicle with jumper module. After being towed to dealer, was diagnosed with failed ICCU. The original ICCU was replaced previously in January 2025. Luckily was not underway on the road when it happened. There was no warning, no indication that there was any problem.

The ICCU (Integrated Charge Control Unit) failed. The car was in a Hyundai dealer repair shop on November 18, 2025, for an unrelated regular maintenance procedure when (i) the technician noticed a logged ICCU error code generated sometime prior to the shop visit and (ii) after the technician cleared that prior error a second new ICCU error code was generated. The shop replaced the defective ICCU. This car had been serviced on prior occasions to install updated ICCU software, most recently as part of NHTSA's recall 24V868000 of November 18, 2024 (also known as Hyundai Safety Recall 272), intended to eliminate such ICCU failures. Installation of that software as the remedy for recall 24V868000 clearly did not prevent the very ICCU failure it was intended to guard against. Please note also that it is common knowledge (as disseminated on various Ioniq 5 forums and Reddit groups) that large numbers of later Ioniq 5 vehicles with newer VINs not included in recall 24V868000, i.e., from model year 2025 onward, have also suffered from these failures despite being initially placed into service with the updated ICCU software, as well as many other pre-2025 remedied vehicles. The Hyundai ICCU software currently in operation on both remedied cars from recall 24V868000 as well as newer cars not subject to that recall is clearly entirely ineffective as a solution to this very serious safety issue. I strongly urge NHTSA to (i) declare the existing ICCU software to be an ineffective remedy for recall 24V868000, (ii) include all Hyundai Ioniq 5 cars for all model years, whether running current ICCU software or not, to be part of the group of unremedied and unsafe vehicles, and (iii) extend recall 24V868000 until such time as Hyundai can actually demonstrate that an effective remedy exists and is being made available to all Ioniq 5 vehicles.

Carr went into limp mode and wouldn’t drive more than approximately 10 mph in traffic. Once I was able to pull over and reset the ignition button, the car seems to be operating normally.

Even after the recall service performed, the ICCU still failed 10 months later. DTC P1E011C is listed and will not charge. This is the same issue for the KIA EV9 and a TSB needs to be issued the same as the TSB 339 KIA did for the EV9.

I am submitting an update to my existing complaint regarding the ICCU safety recall on my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5. Since my original submission, my vehicle has been at authorized Hyundai dealerships since July 2025 and remained undiagnosed and unrepaired for over three months. During this time, I received inconsistent and misleading information from both Hyundai corporate and the dealerships regarding the status of the recall repair, as documented via emails, texts, and recorded calls. On 10/31/2025, the dealership informed me that the issue may involve a floor harness/wiring problem and it is out of warranty; however, this appears related to the ICCU safety recall, and Hyundai has not provided a firm timeline for repair. Hyundai’s delay has caused significant inconvenience, as I have been without my vehicle while continuing to make car payments and insurance payments, and arranging temporary transportation. Additionally, Hyundai and the dealerships provided multiple assurances that the vehicle was being diagnosed and repaired, which were later contradicted, reflecting misleading and deceptive practices. I request that NHTSA consider this update as part of my ongoing complaint and investigate Hyundai’s failure to provide timely and adequate recall service, as well as the misinformation surrounding this safety recall.

Despite being up-to-date on recalls for this vehicle intended to address failures with the integrated charging control unit (ICCU), I still experienced an ICCU failure. I was driving along a surface road at approximately 40 mph for about 9 minutes when I heard a pop that sounded like cargo shifting in the rear cargo area. The vehicle then flashed a "Check EV System" warning but otherwise continued to operate normally. About 2 minutes later, there was a warning to stop vehicle and check power supply. After I pulled into a parking lot, I restarted the vehicle, but the errors persisted. I had the vehicle towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed as an ICCU failure. The vehicle was last charged ~15 hours before the failure on a level 2 charger at a peak rate of 6 kw. The vehicle was driven for about an hour after charging, sat overnight, before being driven when the failure occurred. The vehicle is primarily charged using level 1 and 2 charging, typically not exceeding 6.3 kw. Only a handful of times has level 2 charging rates exceeded 6.3 kw. The vehicle previously had the ICCU fail and replaced in 2023. The car is still at the dealership with no repair timeline.

The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) in my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq has not been diagnosed or repaired despite being at the dealership for 3 months for a safety recall. The ICCU controls the vehicle’s electrical and charging systems, and a malfunction could prevent the vehicle from charging or operating properly, creating a risk of loss of propulsion while driving. Two different Hyundai dealers have had the vehicle since July 11, 2025, but no diagnosis or repair has been completed. I have escalated the issue to Hyundai Corporate, but there has been no resolution or communication of a timeline. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. No warning lamps or messages were reported prior to the dealer receiving the vehicle, as the car was delivered specifically for the recall repair. Due to this unresolved recall, I have been without my vehicle for 3 months, which has caused significant hardship and forced me to rent a vehicle temporarily. I was given a loaner vehicle eventually but this vehicle is not comparable to my ioniq5. Both dealer's gave excuses for the lack of diagnosing and repairs, ranging from "technician is on jurty duty" or "the climate is too hot outside to look at it."

I was driving along and got a warning to pull over due to low power. This is the third time this has occurred and is a well--documented failure point for this vehicle. I go in for "repair", things are checked and sometimes software is updated and then within months the problem returns. Very unsafe being stranded on a high speed, two land rural road at night. It has been flat bedded to the dealer and tomorrow I will here theri song and dance.

Vehicle Information: Year/Make/Model: 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SE AWD VIN: [XXX] Mileage at issue onset: ~18,000–22,000 miles Purchase date: April 2022 Ownership type: Purchased new, paid in full Component Affected: Electrical System → Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) / Charging System Problem Description: I am reporting a persistent and unresolved charging system failure involving the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) in my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5. This defect has rendered the vehicle unreliable and currently inoperable, leaving me without safe transportation for myself and my infant child. Over the past year, I’ve brought the vehicle to the dealership more than 10 times, including 6 visits in just the last 3 months, due to charging issues that were supposed to be addressed via multiple recall campaigns (e.g., Campaigns 228, 997, 9A1, 9B5, 272, TCP). Despite these attempted software and firmware updates, the issue persists and culminated in a total failure to charge in March 2025. The dealership confirmed ICCU failure again, but advised that the part is on indefinite backorder, with no timeline for repair or safe operation. This defect is dangerous, particularly as it can result in loss of power and stranding, with potential risks to driver and passenger safety. Hyundai is aware of this widespread issue among Ioniq 5 owners but has not issued a permanent fix or offered viable alternatives to affected consumers. Hyundai denied my Lemon Law claim despite substantial repair documentation and admitted ICCU defects. I have filed with the BBB Auto Line and IL Attorney General. I’m now preparing for legal action. This is not just a consumer issue — it’s a national electric vehicle safety issue involving Hyundai’s inability to resolve a known, system-wide defect in a core safety component. Attachments: Available upon request: repair invoices, dealer assessments, Hyundai’s denial letter, lemon law filings.

This is the second time I’ve taken my Hyundai IONIQ 5 in to Hyundai as part of a recall “fix” for ICCU Failure. Each time, the car has been operating fine, I take the car in for the “fix” as it’s required, and then shortly after the car breaks down while it’s in motion / operating. I’ve concluded these are not “fixes” and I have no ability to trust the safety or reliability of the vehicle. 1) ICCU Failure 8 Days After Recall “Fix”. Same thing happened the previous year. Took the car in for the recall “Fix” and shortly after the car dangerous broke down while driving. 2) Car became a brick. 3) Yes, Hyundai Service Center has confirmed ICCU fault. 4) Yes, see #3 5) Yes, minutes before the car became inoperable.

My car suffered a failure of the Integrated Charge Control Unit ("ICCU") which makes the car underivable. This is the third time that I have had an issue with the ICCU. The first two times, it failed to charge the 12V battery, leading to a loss of all 12V systems and being unable to drive the car. This third time, the car now refuses to charge on AC power. Hyundai has tried to "repair" this issue with software updates, but it doesn't fix it. Now I am waiting for a remanufactured ICCU to replace my broken one.

1) This is the second occurrence of this issue within the past 12 months. While driving, my EV displayed various blinking lights and a “Check EV Connection” message, followed by a “12v Battery Critical” warning. The entire system began shutting down in the middle of the road. I managed to pull over before the car completely shut off. 2) This malfunction posed a significant safety risk to me and others. The rapid deceleration and uncertainty of an imminent shutdown almost caused an accident, either from other vehicles crashing into me or from my inability to stop in time, potentially hitting another car. I have faced this life-threatening situation twice within a year due to the same issue. 3) The problem was confirmed by my dealership less than a year ago, and my car is currently being towed back to the dealership for re-inspection of the same issue. 4) The vehicle and its components have not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or other parties for the current situation. However, the manufacturer issued a recall for this problem last year AFTER my initial report, incident, and repair. They claimed to have fixed the faulty issue or replaced the necessary parts, when my vehicle was repaired less than 12 months ago. Despite this, I am experiencing the same critical problem again. 5) During the incident, my entire panel started blinking with a “Check EV Connection” message, followed by a red warning sign indicating a 12v Battery Critical Failure warning. The system then went black, and the panel continued to blink white and black consistently while parked. The car cannot be started or moved.

Turning into my driveway one evening, the car displayed the "Check Electric Vehicle System" alert on dash. The following morning while backing out of the driveway to wait for a tow, the alert changed to "Stop vehicle and check power supply". Got car towed to dealer, and after diagnosing, confirmed that ICCU failed. Car has been at the dealer for almost 2 weeks at this point, and the part is still back-ordered with no ETA, according to the service advisor I have been working with.

I had the most recent recall (code 702 I believe) done on January 13th. I believe the recall was an NHTSA required recall and after the software update that was part of the recall my car will no longer charge. It has been with the dealer since January 15th with no resolution in sight. The software update was I believe the 4th such update intended to prevent a part called an ICCU from failing. It took 4 business days but the dealer Hyundai of Roseville confirmed the ICCU needs to be replaced and they don’t have an ETA on when the part will be shipped. Online I have seen reports of the same thing happening to others and the ICCU repair process taking 1-2 months.

Electrical system failure. Available for inspection upon request. While driving, warning appeared on dashboard. Warning said, "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply" The safety of vehicle occupants and others on the road was put at risk. I lost control of the vehicle in the middle of traffic due to the loss of electrical power. The problem has been confirmed by San Leandro Hyundai as part of the Safety Recall for the Integrated Charging Control Unit, Recall number 272. NHTSA Recall number 24V-868. The recall repair was completed but the ICCU was not replaced and is still defective. A few minutes prior to the eletrical failure a warning message appeared on the dashboard. The warning message said, "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply". First appeared on Saturday January 11th at 4PM (PT).

The vehicle has no power whatsoever. Upon approaching the vehicle, it did not unlock. I used the physical key to open the drivers door. I then tried starting the vehicle only to have the gauge and center display flashing on and off with a red warning That the 12v was dead, to pull over and top immediately then the displays turned off. There are no lights or power to the vehicle no whatsoever. It cannot turn on any of the interior lights or even power door locks. This means only the front doors can be opened or locked and the vehicle will obviously not move. The 12v battery system has been a continuing issue with the vehicle. It has been repaired and the subject of several recalls during my short ownership and is still a problem. Due to a blizzard, I have been unable to have the vehicle taken to the dealership and have been without transportation for 3 days already with no clear resolution from Hyundai.

The ICCU on my Ioniq 5 failed without any warning from the car or mobile app. All recalls were performed on the vehicle prior to it failing. I was unable to charge the vehicle on level 1 or level 2 charging. The dealership replaced both the ICCU and fuse on the vehicle.

On [XXX], I was driving my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL when all of a sudden the car started beeping and displaying a 12V battery voltage low. Stop safely message. I was traveling on [XXX] in the Las Vegas area and the car all of a sudden came shut off seconds later. This presented a very dangerous situation with other vehicles traveling at 65+ mph and the vehicle shutting off. I was able to use a portable power jump starting pack to at least get the car restarted and pulled off the side of the highway. Even after jump starting the vehicle, it would only stay running for a minute before shutting off again. The is the second time in 2 months that my car has lost power. The dealer, ABC Hyundai in Las Vegas did a ICCU recall and said that would solve the problems. The problem has not been resolved and I do not feel this is a safe vehicle to drive.

Today when I was driving down a canyon going 40 mph, the car started coasting and the accelerator was unresponsive. I couldn't keep the car from decreasing speed and regen braking wasn't working either. I don't know whether it's related, but this happened within seconds of me turning off daylight savings time in the menu. I coasted to a safe place to pull over (the brakes worked fine), but I could not get the accelerator to work after switching from drive to park to drive again. After turning the car off and then back on, the accelerator again worked like normal. After continuing driving, I turned daylight savings time on and off a few times, but nothing adverse happened.

On Saturday, [XXX], at approximately [XXX], I drove my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 north on [XXX] . The car was operating normally. I stopped at the red light at the corner of [XXX] and noticed a large red circle with a "Check electrical system" warning on the driver's display screen. When the traffic light turned green, I pressed the accelerator pedal, and the car did not move. I looked at the "Park, Neutral, Reverse, Drive" shifter. The "P" was lit up, indicating the car was in "Park." I attempted to switch to "Drive," and the status indicator remained in "P." I then pushed the "EV START STOP" switch to see if I could cycle the vehicle off and then back on to clear the problem. The switch had no effect. [XXX] is a busy four-lane, undivided street near the University of Colorado at Boulder campus. I selected the hazard flashers and called 911 to alert the Boulder Police Department that I was in a car that was immobilized in the middle of the right-hand northbound lane. Cars had to swerve to avoid me. The Police Department dispatched a vehicle that arrived 10 minutes later, pulled up behind me, and put its flashing lights on to alert traffic. While waiting for the tow truck, I received another alert on the driver's display that informed me that the 12-volt battery was nearly completely discharged, and I had 10 minutes of power left. The warning counted the remaining minutes to 0, and the displays shut down. From the first warning message to the shutdown, I could not turn the car system off or shift the car out of the park. The tow company had to put dollies under the rear wheels of the Ioniq 5 and lift the front end off the ground to tow the vehicle, as all four wheels were locked. The car was towed to Crossroads Hyundai in Loveland, Colorado. It had just been serviced to address all the recall issues, including the ICCU software update. The car has approximately 16,000 miles on it. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

A warning to check electrical system was displayed. The battery did not have sufficient charge to drive it to a dealer so I tried to charge and the car would not charge past 60%. I was able to drive the car to the dealer where they diagnosed a failed EV battery. Prior to the failure the car would use battery percentage much faster than it should have. For example, a fifteen mile drive would deplete the battery 25 miles. The dealer still has the car waiting to replace the battery.
