There's an active recall campaign on the ICCU for these cars. They do one of two things : Check the module to see if it's still working and update the software to keep it from frying, or replace the ICCU (takes longer) Mine was in the shop for a month waiting for parts, I suspect they replaced the ICCU entirely lol
I had my 2023 Ioniq 5 LTD AWD for less than 3 months and now it is currently in the shop again for the 5th time for a dead 12V battery. I have now started a buyback case with Hyundai and a lemon law claim. Hyundai has no idea what the issue is. They claimed it was 3rd party apps draining Bluelink and they fixed the issue by limiting how many times Bluelink can accept these 3rd party requests. They requested that I remove mine which I did and guess what? It did work and the battery died again. Clearly, Hyundai has no clue what is happening. They even claimed to my Hyundai mechanic that they never heard of this before but they declared it fixed over a year ago with the Bluelink change. A complete lie. We have owned over 6 Hyundais and have never had issues like this and I have to say their handling of this situation has been really poor.
I have a 23 Hi5 and have not had the dead battery problem. However, I have had a problem some call Zombie Mode. When I try to shift out of park I can not get it to go into D or R. The car is thus immobile. I had it happen in a carwash after I paid for my wash at the entry gate. I had to open the door because I couldn't reach the card slot so the car shifted into Park. I couldn't get it out of Park. After turning it on and off a couple of times and trying several times to get it to shift it worked. Took about 5 minutes. I put my foot on the brake each time I restarted it. It has happened four more times randomly. Each time I am able to get it to shift after doing various things. The dealer won't help me if I can't make it happen in their presence. Hyundai said they can't help me without a dealer experiencing it. They recommend taking it in to the dealer and leaving it there so they can try to duplicate the issue. No loaner offered. It is usually a couple of months between each experience so I can't imagine it is going to happen when the mechanic at the dealer is checking it once or so times a day. So, it looks like I am on my own. I think it is a low battery problem but am only guessing. I have purchased battery tester and a jump start battery. Hopefully, if it happens again I can just jump start and the problem will be over for the time being. Do any of you have any suggestions for what I can do?
First time I hear about that problem. Could be limited just to your vehicle, possible loose connection somewhere. When you find a fix let us know what was it please!
I'm going through this right now. Today I was driving and heard that same pop. the warning like came on. "check electric vehicle system" follow by "Stop vehicle and check power supply". Good thing I was far from home. Drove right back and make an appointment. I won't be able to bring it in till 2 week from now!
Hopefully they will get it done then, If they start stalling past 20 days get a lemon law firm and they will get it done in a 2 days. That's what I did and they fixed it right away plus 2500.00 for a inconvenience.
I'm going over your video history right now to see if you've made an update on this: I'm in the market for a 2022 IONIQ 5 SE trim, I don't think I need the 2023 model, since all that model did was offer an improved battery preheating - management update,. I live in Las Vegas Nevada, where the coldest it gets here which is rare is like high 30's in Jan and Feb only: I don't have a garage and I plan on charging the IONIQ 5 over night when it's this cold from apx 11 PM to 7 AM:
@@VirtualMotivation411 The ICCU however is a huge deal for me, it's the only reason now I'm entertaning the Kia NERO which runs apx 4,000 less in the used market and has no such issue, My dilema is this: How do I know the software only fix, or even if the entire ICCU was repaired or replaced in the past, is going to get me at least 75% effectiveness:? What I've heard is that for some owners who'se models only qualifed for the ''dealership in person - software fix'' the outcome was that they only got sometimes as high as 18 AMP level 2 charging, (in other words it's very random what the outcomes have been) To replace or ICCU, has a estimate of apx 4,000 accordng to some who'se models had that procedure done under the defect re-call as evidenced by the paperwork some have posted in forums, The other thing I'm wondering about is: Can this problem also still have negative impact on slower DC charging when the new adaptors are available that are compatble with the Tesla charging stations next year?
This is a warranty issue, right? You shouldn't have to pay for ANYTHING. Please keep us updated. Did the dealer provide a LOANER at least?? Best of luck with this...
There were 18 customers ahead of me for a loaner, I rented a car (Hyundai pays up to 35$ a day). Last Monday I contacted a Lemon law attorney and my car went from we don't have a ICCU and no ETA on when it is coming... to this Wednesday getting a call that the car is fully repaired (maybe it is coincidence ... maybe not) I picked it up ... everything was under warranty, they changed a ICCU, fuse and battery.
I like Teslas but went with the Ioniq. The Ioniq feels like a more premium car. Far better quality interior, physical buttons, a heads up display, rear view mirror LCD with camera, shaded sunroof, faster charging architecture, better suspension, quieter ride and although I like the styling of Teslas I like the Ioniq more. You see Teslas everywhere now and it feels a lot like the “me too” car now. Tesla has their charging infrastructure which is absolutely a plus, and the best self driving, but beyond that I like the Ioniq so much more. The ICCU has been the biggest issue, but that’s just one fast swappable module that doesn’t brick the car. 2022 was the first model, Teslas had many issues of their own. Other car companies are catching up quick and even improving. Tesla is betting all out on self driving, but if it has to be “supervised” it really misses the mark.
@@akennedystocks Technology and capabilities is not everything. For the price they need to up their game. Those interiors feel like plastic, the suspension is not great, there should be a speedometer in front of you. They try to sell the minimalist interior as a stylistic choice but they are really just being cheap. Put some buttons in there lol. Find a new body style, no one wants to see everyone driving the same car, but it’s cheaper for them to stamp out panels that way. Yes they are capable but for the price it leaves a lot to be desired. I didn’t save money buying my Ioniq, I could have easily bought a Model Y, but I think the Ioniq is a way cooler car.
@@nolomite3921 Well, the refreshed Tesla Model 3 is pretty much there. Hyundai is going to die on the sword with their $50,000 battery replacement AND dying charge control module that is essentially bricking these cars all over the world.
@@akennedystocks The term “Bricking” entails that the car wouldn’t work anymore. The ICCU has been addressed in a recall issued in March, and is a relatively quick and easy repair. Not “Bricked” at all. They were probably low in stock but that will change. The 2025 will undoubtedly address these issues and older models can easily be fixed. It’s good that the Model 3 is coming with a refresh. I’ll consider a Tesla in the future when they start listening to what customers really want.
Get a Toyota ICE next time they can last 800K or more with nothing going wrong, that's 20 years or more of worry free driving. Not fail at 21K miles like this EV - what a joke.
@@DrDoohickey The 200k miles is not the point if Hyundai decides to not honor their warranty and charge you $50,000 replacement one. For the record Hyundai is famous for not honoring their warranties!
Yeah, that way, you'll be able to enjoy all those extra squeeks and rattles, failed suspension, and peeling paint. If you're really lucky, it will 'full self-drive' into a highway crash barrier.
@@DrDoohickey You might be talking about the Tesla five years ago with paint peeling and oh my goodness squeaking that the manufacturer will fix for free! Enjoy your un-american Hyundai and the STEALERSHIPS will bend you over and treat you really good I am sure.

most people I know that have ICCU issues have been getting the part within 5-7 days.
I am unsure what region he is from and how big the Hyundai dealer is - and also what the lead time of these parts are.
I'm on day 23 with no eta on when it will be fixed.
I am also currently waiting for a part. Was told it would be in a week ago but haven’t heard from them at all.
