The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) failed on [XXX]. An electrical system warning light appeared on the dashboard as soon as I turned on the vehicle; a review of the diagnostic code via the Hyundai Bluelink app indicated that the vehicle was unsafe to drive. It was towed to Napleton's Hyundai service center in Urbana, Illinois. I was informed that the replacement parts were on a nationwide backorder. The repairs were finally completed on February 25, 2026. The repairs were covered under warranty; however, it was a disappointment and inconvenience for a practically new car to suffer a critical part failure and then to be out of commission for 50 days.

ICCU failure at 5308 miles. heard a loud pop while driving and 12v warning system errors
I was driving on a 4 lane major artery on 12 / 30/2025 traveling approximately 50 mph. Heard a loud bang and car loss power and suddenly slowed. Vehicles behind me had to swerve to miss hitting me. The vehicle could move approximately 5 mph afterward. We pulled off the road onto a side road. We later found out the ICCU failed from the Hyundai dealership. It has been there since that date awaiting parts to repair
ICCU unit failed on 1/27/26, vehicle entered limp mode and is unusable. This is affecting thousands of Hyundai Ioniq 5 autos, and probably others as well. Due to the widespread problem, Hyundai is unable to give an estimate on finding a replacement part.
While driving, heard a POP sound, followed but multiple warnings to stop vehicle and check the electrical system. The car went into turtle mode. luckily I was close to home, but any other situation could have been dangerous. This is a commonly known issue with these Ioniq 5 vehicles. The ICCU fails and can no longer charge the 12v battery, causing loss of electrical systems and possibly even the ability to have hazards on if you are stuck in traffic.
The vehicle was in the middle of a u-turn when the ICCU fuse suddenly and without warning blew. Display warning messages came on to "check electrical system". Car was able to drive in "limp mode" at about 40 mph on level roads, but not more than 25 mph on any uphill. This is a well known problem with Hyundai EVs. It will be towed to a dealer to confirm. It felt extremely unsafe to be in the middle of a turn on a public street and have the car power system fail. Luckily there was minimal traffic at the moment. A few minutes earlier or later would have been on a heavily trafficked road
ICCU failure. Vehicle has 5200 miles on it. A loud "pop" was heard then the vehicle went into "limp mode" and restricted speed to 30 mph. After about 10 miles the car totally lost power and wouldn't start. Warning l messages said to get it serviced which is what I was attempting to do.
ICCU confirm dead by the dealer. IONIQ 5 2025 AWD. only had this car for 5 month, 4900 miles. vehicle stopped at the middle on the highway. luckey, no accident occur. no part avilable, no ETA for fix, no loaner from dealer.
ICCU failure causing the vehicle to be inoperable
The ICCU (integrated charging control unit) failed on the vehicle, which resulted in the vehicle not being able to charge the 12v battery. The vehicle was no longer able to be driven after the ICCU failed.
The ICCU component failed on me at 4,356 miles. Heard a pop with the car and then the dash started displaying electrical errors. To stop the vehicle and turn it off. The vehicle would not accelerate and would only go up to 25 miles per hour. Had to tow it to the dealership. Given a time frame of 30-60 days to receive the ICCU part for repair.
The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle, the battery warning light remained illuminated, and the vehicle failed to exceed 45 MPH while driving. The messages "Onboard Charger - Stop Vehicle" and "Power Supply" were displayed. The vehicle was later towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the ICCU Module had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The contact stated that during the failure, the electric battery had failed to recharge the 12-Volt battery as intended, which caused the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V868000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 8,000.
''Stop vehicle and check power supply'' At this point I heard a pop sound and the car died. The dealer said this is a ICCU problem.
At a routine service visit to AutoNation Hyundai/Carlsbad, I received a good report on the 2025 Ioniq 5 condition. Starting the car to drive home I heard a pop sound and noted a diagnostic code that confirmed the ICCU and associated fuse had blown. Since then, Hyundai has been unable to clarify the ETA of the back ordered parts. They provided a loaner but it’s not an EV.
On Sunday, 2/15/26 while backing out of my garage into the driveway, I heard a "pop" sound from the rear and the vehicle stopped and shut down with multiple warning/alerts on the dash. The error code reported was DTC P1A9096 which is indicative of an ICCU (Integrated Charging and Control Unit) failure as widely reported here and online by other owners. Vehicle was towed to the dealer and is currently awaiting diagnosis.
ICCU failed. Car has been sitting at service center for ~4 weeks. Luckily the incident took place at home but could have been anywhere. No warning prior to failure.
The 12V system battery failed to keep a charge and the vehicle slowly reduced maximum speed until it fully died causing the car to coast to a stop on a 55MPH highway. At 9,500 miles on the odometer the ICCU has failed. The part is on backorder and my car has been in the shop for three weeks with no estimated completion date. A LOT of IONIQ 5 owners are encountering the ICCU failure.
Main battery failure, can not charge, can not drive car. Warning light(s) on dashboard. High voltage battery needs to be replaced.
The vehicle experienced a sudden failure of the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU). While driving, a loud "pop" was heard, followed immediately by a "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning on the dashboard. The vehicle then entered "Limp Mode" with significantly reduced propulsion. The 12V battery became depleted, leading to a complete loss of motive power and loss of electronic safety systems, creating a hazardous situation in traffic.
When putting my car into gear a loud pop noise was heard. The car could not be driven at the point and the instrument cluster mentioned an electrical system failure. The car was towed to the dealer where they confirmed the ICCU unit needed to be replaced. It has been at the dealership since January 8th with little to no communication.
Car battery completely failed on a busy road.
I heard a pop followed by an alarm notification stating the electrical system had an error. I had started the climate system but the car was parked.
The ICCU unit failed and I have been without my car for already 3+ weeks
Vehicle experienced a dashboard alert, "Check electric vehicle system." The car produced an OBD code: P1AD3(00). Upon taking it to the dealer, they determined that the EV required a new high-voltage battery.
ICCU needs to be replaced.
The ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failed with DTC P1A9096 and I was driving at approximately 25-30 MPH on 01/17/2026 at approximately 5:40 pm in approximately 32 degree temperature. The car had just been disconnected from a hardwired Chargepoint Home Flex 11.5 kw 48A Level 2 home charger with a NACS connecter (so no adapters used), though the charging had mainly ended at approximately 5:24 am that same morning (after reaching the preset charging limit of 80% of battery capacity, I believe). That charging session provided 45.572 kWh of energy over approximately 4.5 hours and then the vehicle sat, still plugged in, for approximately 12 more hours until disconnected to drive it. After driving approximately 1-2 minutes on residential streets, I heard a muffled 'pop' sound behind the front seats, and the vehicle dashboard suddenly showed 'check electrical vehicle system' and 'stop vehicle and check power supply'. The vehicle suddenly had limited capabilities, including speed, and at that point gave a limited, unspecified, amount of time to get off of the road to safety. The vehicle is currently with a Hyundai dealer (Hyundai of 110 in Farmingdale, NY) who has since confirmed it was an ICCU failure. They are waiting on a new ICCU, which is on back order. The vehicle had been leased, new, in June of 2025 and after that, was driven approximately 9,506, miles (mostly highway) and never exhibited any sounds, warning lights, control issues, or any other indications that there was any problem or that there would be any sudden problem with the vehicle.
In-Cabin Camera Unit Replacement - The in- cabin camera unit needs replacement due to a communication failure with the ICC module. Technicians confirmed proper power, ground, and CAN system continuity to the module but encountered a persistent 'ROM ID check failed' error. Replacing the unit can restore proper communication and functionality of the camera system.
All of a sudden after starting the car I got a “Check Electric Vehicle” warning sign and when I called the dealership the told me do NOT drive it and tow it. The basically told me it will die on me.
The ICCU (Integrated charging control unit) failed, causing my car to go into "Limp mode" where it was unable to accelerate over 44 mph. This put my safety at risk as I was unable to accelerate on the freeway. The Hyundai dealer confirmed the problem and it is still there, with no estimated time for repair due to a shortage of replacement part. It was not inspected by the police or insurance. There weren't any warnings or symptoms prior to the failure. Hyundai has issued recalls for 2022-24 models for this problem but not the 2025, although it appears they have not fixed this for 2025 models.
The vehicle's ICCU failed after 7 months and 7k miles of driving. This is a known issue that Hyundai has not addressed or issued a recall for.
