The high-voltage traction battery on my 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited RWD failed unexpectedly around [redacted], when the vehicle had approximately 1,250 miles on it and was just over 3 months old. The car had been parked in my driveway with about 80% charge while I was away for several days. When I attempted to drive it, the vehicle would not shift out of neutral. No warning lamps or error messages were displayed before the failure. The vehicle was towed to Van Hyundai in Carrollton, TX on April 3. While loading it onto the tow truck, the 12V battery completely died, disabling the electronic parking brake and preventing the vehicle from being safely secured. After an extended wait, a Hyundai field service technician diagnosed the failure as a fault in the traction battery, requiring a complete replacement. I was told the part is currently unavailable and has no estimated arrival time. …

I was driving to work on the morning of Nov. 12th, 2025 in East Greenwich RI. The car had been fully charged on my home Level 2 charger the night before. It was a chilly morning so I turned on the heated driver seat and steering wheel. Less than a mile from my house, and without any warning or prior issues, I heard a loud pop from underneath the vehicle. Immediately the car displayed an error on the dash reporting electrical system issues. The car still seemed driveable so I began to drive back home, noting that the car wouldn't exceed ~30 mph, but before I went very far at all the error changed to "Stop vehicle and check power supply." I pulled the car over on a side road and called for a tow to the nearest Hyundai service center in North Kingstown, RI. The next day the Hyundai service center reported that their diagnostics revealed that the ICCU had failed. …

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.

The ICCU on my car failed after hearing a loud pop (fuse blown) while driving on the freeway. This was an incredibly dangerous scenario in which I went from 70 mph to 25 mph, in an area with no shoulder. Hyundai is aware of the issues with the ICCU and I believe they should expand the recall to include EVERY Hyundai Ioniq 5 and 6. Interestingly, the technician at the dealership states in the summary of service that my car is subject to the recall due to the fault code (P1A9096). Why did I have to experience this failure to be subject to recall? My car should be subject to the recall/service based on VIN, but according to [redacted] it is not. Also at issue is the time it took to Hyundai's tech line to work with my dealership, and the time they are suggesting to provide replacement parts. …

The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to charge at 120 or 240 volts. The charging unsuccessful alert was displayed. The contact stated that the vehicle only charged on a DC fast charger. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) that allowed both high-voltage and secondary batteries in vehicles to be charged had failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 500.

I turned on the car and immediately got a "check electric vehicle system" error, and then shortly after a "stop vehicle and check power supply" error. I located a nearby dealership to diagnose and repair the vehicle, and called a tow truck to take it there. My car is parked in a garage in an alley. After the tow truck arrives in the alley, I turn on the car and get the same errors, and pull into the alley. As I'm pulling into the alley, the car start behaving very eratically, not responding well to the accelerator or steering wheel, and then within a couple minutes the display goes blank, completely black, with some white glitchy pixels periodically. Thankfully, I had already put the car into neutral at this point so the car could be pulled onto the flatbed tow truck. Once the displays stopped working, the car was completely unresponsive. …

I was driving 75mph on the freeway and I heard a pop and then the electrical warning system on the car lit up. I lost power to the car and was only able to accelerate minimally. There was a warning of low battery and the vehicle was going to lose power. I turned on my hazard lights and was able to get to the exit and was able to exit the freeway safely. Once the vehicle lost power I was unable to open the charger door, start the vehicle, use any of the key fob functions and had to jump the 12V battery, only to die immediately after. There is no pre-warning to this happening, it just shows the alert and the car loses all power. There are also problems with the vehicle after being plugged in to charge and it says "Charging Unsuccessful", or stops charging after a short period of time. It also will not charge to full capacity at home or the charging station. …
