Hyundai recalls more than 145,000 Ioniq and Genesis EVs that can lose power while driving


Hyundai will replace a faulty part and update the software.

Hyundai is recalling over 145,000 Ioniq and Genesis vehicles due to a 12-volt battery charging issue that could cause the EVs to lose drive power and increase the risk of a crash. Hyundai will instruct owners to take affected vehicles to dealerships to replace the ICCU and its associated fuse and install new software to prevent overvoltage that could damage the part again. Other electric vehicles have gone through similar recalls regarding power loss before, including the Porsche Taycan, Lucid Air, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and the now-defunct Fisker Ocean.
