NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:CHARGING:CABLE/CORD:ACCESSORY filed January 18, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2057086 (ODI reference 11636790) concerns a 2019 HYUNDAI KONA ELECTRIC and was filed on January 18, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on January 8, 2024. The report was geocoded to Connecticut based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:propulsion system:charging:cable/cord:accessory, 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 KONA ELECTRIC cohort independently describe similar electrical system:propulsion system:charging:cable/cord:accessory 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 2019 HYUNDAI KONA ELECTRIC shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.

Complaint Description

The Charging unit made by Enel X called a JuiceBox 40 failed to complete a charge. Upon examination of the charger it was determined that the plug from the unit to the 240V receptacle was fused to the outlet and could not be removed. When my electrician opened the box he was able to force the plug out of the outlet. He found that the plug was burned as well as the copper wire that went to the plug from the electrical box.
