Hyundai, Kia recall over 200K electric cars over power issues

(The Hill) — Hyundai and Kia announced this week recalls for more than 200,000 electric vehicles due to loss of drive power that can increase the risk of crash, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Hyundai’s recall encompasses over 145,000 cars, including some IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6 EVs along with Genesis GV60, Genesis GV70 and Genesis G80 models.

NHTSA said in a Thursday letter that the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) may get damaged and stop charging the 12-volt battery, “which can result in a loss of drive power.”
