NHTSA Complaint #11694439 — 2023 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5

ICCU Failure — Severe Safety Risk and Repeated Incident The ICCU in my Hyundai has failed twice. Both times, the car suddenly and completely lost power while I was driving — no warning lights, no gradual slowdown, just total loss of control. This created an extremely dangerous situation that put me, my passengers, and everyone around us at risk. When the ICCU fails, the vehicle shuts down instantly and becomes completely inoperable. During the most recent incident, I spent more than eight hours on the phone with Hyundai attempting to arrange a tow. When the tow truck finally arrived, the driver instructed me to shift the car into neutral. The moment I did, the car died again and became stuck in neutral, preventing the driver from towing it. He then left, unable to assist, leaving my disabled vehicle parked on a public road — on a hill — where it posed a further safety hazard. Hyundai’s response to these failures has been temporary at best. This issue continues to reoccur, making the vehicle effectively unsafe to drive at all times.
