Fountain Valley, CA – December 5, 2024 – Hyundai (OTCMKTS:HYMTF), which owns the Genesis brand, is recalling 145,235 electric vehicles (EVs) that may stall while driving. This ups the risk of a crash and injury, especially in fast-moving traffic.
This is an expansion of a similar recall from April 2024. Vehicles that were repaired previously will need a new remedy.
The following models are affected:
- 2022 – 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5
- 2023 – 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6
- 2023 – 2025 Genesis GV60
- 2023 – 2025 Genesis GV70
- 2023 – 2024 Genesis G80
Recall summary
The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) is a computer that charges both the vehicle’s battery and the 12-volt battery.
In the affected models, an ICCU fuse may blow because of an overload, which would cut off the power supply to the 12-volt system and consequently cause the vehicle to stall.
Recall risks
A vehicle that unexpectedly stops in the middle of the road can get hit by other motorists.
Warning signs
The vehicle may go into the “limp-home” mode” which would gradually limit its power output. In addition, the driver should notice “various [instances of] illumination of dashboard MIL” as well as other warning messages and chimes.
Background of the recall
Hyundai recalled some of these cars in April 2024, following a U.S. government investigation over dozens of complaints alleging loss of motive power, as reported. However, after recalling the vehicles, the manufacturer started receiving reports of repaired vehicles experiencing the same issue, which led to the present recall.
Other Hyundai recalls
Genesis cars have seen multiple recalls this year related to stalls, as reported.
The repair
Dealers will once again replace the fuse and update the ICCU software. This repair will be free of charge and drivers who have paid for their own repairs out of pocket will be reimbursed.
