2022 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 — Complaint #2034743
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER:120/240 VAC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:CHARGER LOW VOLTAGE BATTERY filed October 23, 2024
NHTSA complaint #2034743 (ODI reference 11621434) concerns a 2022 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 and was filed on October 23, 2024. The owner reports the failure occurred on October 22, 2024. The report was geocoded to Louisiana based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer:120/240 vac electrical system:charger low voltage battery, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 cohort independently describe similar equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer:120/240 vac electrical system:charger low voltage battery failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2022 HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
At around 9pm, while charging my vehicle, I heard a loud boom and the power went out. It appears there was some sort of malfunction with the charger that has tripped/blown the circuit. I have not had an electrician come out yet, but after a quick google search it became apparent that others have experienced the same issue and I thought it was important to report. My charger is outside, not in a garage or enclosed space, so there was no fire that I am aware of.
