2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 problems

“The Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) has failed repeatedly on this vehicle. It has been replaced three times by Haselwood Hyundai dealer since the vehicle was purchased new in 2021. Dates: 9/8/2023, 12/19/2024, 9/30/2025 at approximately 17k, 35k, and 50k miles. Each failure presents the same way: the ICCU stops charging the 12V battery from the high-voltage pack, the 12V drains, and warning messages appear on the dash: Check Electric Vehicle System. The vehicle then loses power or will not start and becomes inoperable [on numerous occasions the vehicle lost power/would not start at, leaving family occupants stranded. The vehicle also required jump starts on at least 25 occasions. Safety risk: an ICCU failure can disable the vehicle without meaningful warning. A loss of 12V power affects power steering assist, braking assist, hazard lights, and airbag readiness, and has left us stranded away from home as the car has to be jumped every time. Each failure was diagnosed and confirmed by a Hyundai dealer, which replaced the ICCU under warranty. Repair orders documenting all three replacements are available on request; the replaced units were retained by the…”

“Complaint Summary: Mandated federal safety recall remedies performed on my vehicle have directly induced a cascading, critical safety failure of the vehicle's high-voltage propulsion management system. My 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 (VIN: [XXX]) was brought to an authorized dealer on XXX at 200,224 miles to complete safety recall Campaign 272 / NHTSA Recall 24V-204 (ICCU Software Update and Fuse Inspection). After receiving this software flash, the vehicle's electrical charging system failed (DTC P0D5C00), requiring a full hardware replacement of the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) on XXX. 142 miles after the physical replacement of the high-voltage ICCU, the vehicle displayed an emergency battery malfunction message on the dashboard. Diagnostic scans reveal active fault code P1BC700 in the Battery Management System. The manufacturer's dealership is now charging $1,909.77 out-of-pocket to replace the Power Relay Assembly (PRA).The current recall modifications for the E-GMP platform are failing to safely mitigate high-voltage current spikes. The electrical strain or servicing procedure required by the recall has directly compromised the adjacent power relays.…”

“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 traction motor overpowering clamped EPB. Neither option is safe. I have attempted to reproduce this unsafe state of the vehicle and was successful in one case and unsuccessful in another. My hypothesis for the differentiating factor is the top speed reached prior to decelerating to a stop: in the first case, 13mph, and in the second, 15mph. I have attached a single frame from one of two videos, of the successful case. The instrument display shows gear state is Drive, the car is moving, high torque is being applied by the traction motors (but typically the screen center shows…”

“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. Visible Electrical Arcing: The service technician stated that they physically witnessed an electrical arc occur when connecting the vehicle's high-voltage charging components. The technician's diagnosis strongly points to a catastrophic internal short circuit or a failed Power Relay Assembly (PRA) within the high-voltage housing. The company completely stopped working and Hyundai would not help. This has been an ongoing issue with other cars too. I tried multiple times working with both the deal and Hyudnai.”

“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 cluster indicating the tailgate state distracted from any additional indications that may have been displayed. That distracting indication was continuously active from when gear state was first switched to Drive and did not correlate with EPB engagement.”

“I am writing to report a serious safety incident involving my 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 and to request a thorough investigation and guidance on next steps. On Jan. 3, 2026, at approximately 6:15 p.m. on a snowy day, we parked our car in the driveway of a weekend rental home near Lake Tahoe, CA. The driveway had a slight slope toward the house, and we backed the car down the driveway with the rear of the car facing the house. My husband turned off the car, then all five occupants exited the vehicle, closed the doors, and began unloading items from the trunk. The car began rolling backwards toward us and the house. It only stopped after pinning my husband into a snowbank created by a snowplow. The other three adults and our [XXX] niece narrowly avoided being struck. While pinned behind the vehicle, my husband had to dig out some snow to reach into his pants pocket and retrieve the key fob. I then moved the car forward a few feet to free him. Although he was pinned in the snow, my husband was (thankfully) not seriously injured. After freeing my husband, I put the car in Park and turned it off. In this model, the parking brake engages automatically; there is no separate…”
