2022 Kia EV6 fuel/propulsion system problems

“The ICCU failed which was part of the recall. Kia is unwilling to honor repairs beyond the 100,000 mile warranty which is unacceptable because there is still no resolution and it is subject to potential future failure. I need an extended warranty.”

“My car was / is one of thousands of Kia cars based on the eGMP platform to experience an ICCU failure. This is believed to be a design issue. While the repair was covered, reports indicate that the problem is not solved and will re-occur in time.”

“When attempting to level one charge the vehicle at home, the car returned a failure to charge error and would not charge. This was attempted several times using different outlets and the same error occurred. The car was brought to Gettel Kia in Bradenton Florida. The dealership confirmed that the ICCU had failed,. They did not have the part and apparently it is on backorder. The repair is being covered under warranty, however, it is not being considered a recall, despite many other Kia EV6s having ICCU failures. The ICCU failures are extensive and need to be further investigated by NHSTA and a full recall for all Kia EV6s should be ordered.”

“Persistent ICCU failure causing charging interruptions, “Check Vehicle Charging System” → “Stop vehicle and check power supply” warnings, low 12V battery voltage (down to 12.1V), and risk of power loss/strand. Kia Connect sent “Charge Interrupted” alert during a session that reached 99%. Multiple prior recalls/attempts failed to resolve (Sep 2023 TSB ELE291 BMS, Jun 2024 SC271 ICCU SW, Jan 2025 SC273 VCU SW, May 2025 SA5999 limp-home logic, Sep 2025 dead 12V stranding). Towed Feb 2026 after stranding; dealer confirmed ICCU failed (DTC P1A9096), replaced ICCU (P/N 36400-1XFA0AQQK latest revision), fuse, and SW update under SC327 (24V-867). Repair completed same day (Feb 24, 2026), but dealer skipped charging system test and filling coolant. Safety impact: Stranded wife twice (dead battery and iccu failure), tow required, potential sudden power loss while driving. Report purpose: Document recurrence despite multiple recalls; seeking NHTSA tracking for effectiveness of SC327 remedy.”

“The ICCU system in my 2022 Kia EV6 failed for the SECOND time on the highway. The car threw an error telling me to "Check the electrical system" and "Pull over safely immediately" or something similar. Had I not made it to the shoulder, I would have been completely stranded in the middle of the highway, creating an incredibly dangerous situation. This is the second time this has happened with my EV6 in less than 50,000 miles on this car. I had to call a tow truck. I confirmed with the Kia dealership the ICCU system had randomly failed and was required to be replaced *AGAIN*. My wife was in the car with me and was freaked out. She doesn't feel safe in it because there's no rhyme or reason to when it happens. KIA says it is a known issue, and confirmed it was the second time this has happened to my car. No symptoms prior to it happening. We were just driving and then suddenly the car lost power and the warning displayed on the dash.”

“While driving in traffic I heard a pop, then the "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning came on the dashboard. After a minute or so the dash warning changed to "Stop Vehicle" and the car limped home but at a lower speed. This matched the description I had seen of ICCU failures on Kia and Hyundai EVs. Dealer confirmed this was in fact the issue, and I had it replaced under warranty. This was a safety issue for me and my family because when it failed I was driving in traffic on a four-lane road at night, in <40-degree weather, and it requires a tow to the dealership for repair. Although I now have a new ICCU, I am also now concerned that it might happen again. The vehicle has not been inspected by police, insurance or manufacturer that I'm aware of.”
