The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) in my 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 failed while the vehicle was charging. The vehicle had been connected to a Level 1 charger for a multi-day charging session when it unexpectedly stopped charging before reaching the selected charge limit. After the failure, the vehicle could no longer successfully charge using either Level 1 or Level 2 charging. When connected to a charger, the vehicle would initially appear to begin charging, but charging would then stop and the dashboard would display an electrical-system warning instructing me to inspect the vehicle’s el…

We had a previous issue with our 12V battery not charging, which totally bricked the whole car. Hyundai updated the charge management system software under the active recalls and tested the 12V battery, which after it was fully charged they said was fine. Now (a few months outside our warranty period for the 12v battery), our car was bricked again and was so dead that we could not even start it/charge the battery with a jump start kit. We were stranded on the side of the road (where we had parked for an event we were attending) and the next day Hyundai towed the car to the nearest dealer (…

This report is an addendum to report 11762283 that was made yesterday. The vehicle allows driving with the rear liftgate ajar, however under some circumstances it engages the EPB when the vehicle comes to a stop while the gear state is still Drive. The gear state of the car remains in Drive when the EPB engages. This presents the driver with the choice, in the middle of the road and possibly in the middle of an intersection, of either exiting the vehicle and rearranging contents of the vehicle to allow the rear liftgate to close, or activating the accelerator to continue driving with the trac…

After coming to a stop at a stop sign, and while the gear state was in Drive, the vehicle auto-applied the electronic parking brake because the tailgate was ajar. Gear state remained in Drive. Upon accelerator input, the parking brake did not release, and the vehicle delivered propulsion torque overcoming the parking brake. As a result, the vehicle accelerated and drove several blocks with the rear brakes fully clamped, which was only effectively indicated by a smell and smoke emitted from the rear wheel wells. An irritating repetitive audio and large flashing visual alert in the display clus…

Active powertrain failure on my 2022 Ioniq 5 SE, which poses an immediate and severe safety risk. On May 18, 2026, the vehicle suffered a catastrophic loss of power and a complete failure to charge. At Murdock Hyundai of Lindon, technicians diagnosed it with trouble code P1AA600 and recommended a total high-voltage battery pack replacement at a cost of over $44,000. Immediate Fire & Safety Risk: The dealership technician explicitly warned me that if I continue to attempt to drive or plug in the vehicle, it will cause an electrical fire.

While driving 70mph on the highway in Phoenix, multiple emergency lights illuminated on the dashboard and I lost all control over the steering wheel and braking mechanisms. The car has been serviced regularly with multiple check-ins focusing on battery efficiency.

On June 3, 2026, my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SE Dual Motor AWD (approximately 31,000 miles) experienced a sudden and severe high-voltage battery failure. Prior to complete failure, I noticed “Check Electrical” warning sign occurring simultaneously: a sudden and dramatic drop in driving range, dashboard warning lights illuminating, and the vehicle failing to charge properly at both home and public charging stations. The vehicle was still drivable at the time I brought it to an authorized Hyundai dealership, but displayed serious warnings indicating the HV battery system was critically compromised.…
