Within that volume, owners reported 1 crash, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall 5/5 rating, with 4/5 front crash, 5/5 side crash, and 5/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2025 IONIQ 6 is electrical system with 10 filings, followed by unknown or other (6) and power train (3). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 2 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 37 investigation files overlapping the 2025 IONIQ 6, and 1 remain open. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

The ICCU died and the fuse on my traction battery blew. Both had to be replaced. I realized I had the problem when I started my car and it showed "Check Electric Vehicle System". When I tried driving it, I was limited to speeds below 45MPH, then eventually 25MPH, and eventually it would enter "turtle mode" and I could limp along at a couple MPH. I found the car would no longer charge the 12V accessory battery and it would no longer receive a charge from my home charger.
ICCU failure which causes a fuse to pop. Because it is an EV the car cannot be driven
My car is less than a year and a half old with only about 10k miles and last night I had the ICCU failure. I already had the software update to "fix" this safety recall 272 but it obviously didn't work. I am a female with a young daughter who was almost stranded in a bad neighborhood as suddenly my car wouldn't go faster than 15 miles an hour and I looked it up and knew it would just stop suddenly at some point. I only had a quick 1 min warning when I turned on my car that said "Check Electrical Vehicle System" then switched to "Stop vehicle and check power supply". My car is now at the dealership and I was told they have to put the same type of part back in as there are no new versions of it. Which is why others have had this happen multiple times.
Warning came on the dashboard to check electrical and stop driving which I did and started up the car again and was only able to drive another minute until the entire car lost power while trying to accelerate and I had to have an emergency pull off into a strip mall off of a busy street car was towed although the Hyundai Road assistance did not know that the dealer they towed to was not able to work on electric vehicles, and therefore had to be restored. At this time, I was told it was an ICCU issue. The part was ordered, and I am waiting to hear back from the dealership.

Every function except blinkers (temporarily functional) ceased to work. I waited in the car, without heat, for an hour before service arrived. The car could not be moved and was left in the road until 3:00 am, when the towing company I paid towed the car to my driveway a mile from the failure site. -My safety was at severe risk while I waited in the car. -Dealer replaced ICCU assembly with the same part, with the possibility of repeated failure. -Warning messages appeared somewhat over a mile before catastrophic failure. The car slowed to 11 mph. -Hyundai has known of the potential for catastrophic ICCU failure in their electric cars since 2022. I took possession of this 2025 model in March 2025.

I leased the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6 in April of 2025, in November of 2025 the car charging time started to increase when using L3 charging stations. The normal charging time would be 15 minutes for the battery to reach 80% capacity and an additional 30 minutes for the battery to reach full capacity. After November it took 20 to 30 minutes for the battery to reach 80% capacity. On January 2, 2026, I was charging the car at a L3 station and when charging was completed the car no longer worked. The car displayed the message âPlease unplug the charger to start the car.â But the car was not plugged in. I tried to trouble shoot for 20 minutes and had to call a tow truck for the car to be towed to Hyundai. The car sat at the Hyundai dealership for a week with the battery power draining from even though it was not turned on nor was it drivable due to the error message. According to the Hyundai website, there was an open recall on this car for the ICCU, and I show no record of this issue bei
