ICCU failure

While driving in the evening with an estimated 180 miles range remaining a "pop" noise was heard. About a minute later a vague warning message the car had not displayed before appeared. We tried to make it home but concerning (and still vague) messages kept appearing quite rapidly. The car slowed down and came to a halt and died in an intersection. This all happened within five minutes of hearing the "pop" noise. Once the vehicle died the head and taillights went off and the car would not allow

With no warning except a pop, the vehicle iccu will fail and leave you stranded, very dangerous if you are driving on the parkway

ICCU blew along with the fuse

The ICCU has failed twice in my EV6. It is a fairly common issue for this vehicle. I had the ICCU replaced after the first failure, but it has failed again. There was no indication something was wrong with the car until I heard a pop and then the dash indicated "Check Electrical System"

Heating system fails to generate sufficient heat to defrost windshield or prevent ice buildup in the winter, also impacts the temperature of the cabin. No error codes are generated but it appears the PTC heater is not functioning as expected.

10:00 am January 28th AFTER A DRIVE OF APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES TO THE GROCERY STORE, we parked the 2023 Kia EV6 Wind,in the parking area, then entered the store to shop. On returning, we placed the groceries in the trunk and proceeded to leave for home. The push button "START" provoked a notice on the dash that the 12 volt battery was "LOW". The drive circuits would not enable. Prior to going in the store the dash information reported the main battery was at 62%, all else is normal. We are n

While changing lanes on a freeway, the car passed through a narrow strip of slush from recent snowfall. The car immediately disabled the motors, preventing acceleration and regenerative braking for nearly 50 seconds. There were no warning lights, sounds, or messages displayed on the car's gauge cluster display, either for the initial loss of propulsion or for the restoration of propulsion. This caused a loss of traction when the car eventually passed through a patch of packed snow and ice.

While driving my Kia EV6 in the middle of a snowstorm, the vehicle experienced a sudden and severe power failure. I heard a loud popping sound from the rear of the cabin, after which the vehicle immediately entered reduced-power (limp) mode. Within approximately one minute, the vehicle shut down entirely and lost all propulsion and mobility. I was able to move the vehicle to a safe location only because I was not in traffic or on the highway at the time of the failure. Had this occurred at high

ICCU failure. Was confirmed by shop car was towed to over phone. But no mention of it on invoice as of yet. I was at traffic light when I heard a pop and when I tried to go, got the warning message to pullover and the turtle icon. I made it to a towable spot. Super fortunate all in all. Can’t imagine if on highway in weather. No hints of failure before. Car was recently purchased month prior. I took it in for recall within first week, was told all good, software was updated. I kept between 20

It seems as if the ICCU on my car failed. It will not charge and went into limp mode in order for me to drive it home a few blocks.

A small amount of snow / ice is sufficient to prevent the windshield wipers from returning all the way to the original starting position low on the windshield. For some reason this prevents them from functioning entirely - they just get stuck in a loop trying to go all the way down. I am able to lift them up manually but they won't do so under wiper motor power / while driving. I have a video that clearly shows the failure mechanics that this system won't allow me to upload.

The vehicle ICCU failed on 18 January 2026. It previously had the ICCU inspected and updated as part of #24V-867. Warnings on screen told me to stop driving and pull over. Had vehicle towed to Dealer where they confirmed ICCU failure and initially were going to charge nearly $4000 to repair. KIA Customer care spoke to dealership and ICCU repair is now being covered. It seems apparent that the earlier fix did not resolve the issue, and raises concerns over whether KIA truly understands the unde

Vehicle was normal and during the drive a warning light for "Check Electric Vehicle System" was shown, then a second warning light "Stop Vehicle and Check Power Supply" was shown, within 2 minutes the vehicle went into "turtle" or reduced speed mode and then finally the vehicle shut down completely. I was on city streets at the time and was able to park safely, but if this had happened on and interstate highway it would have been dangerous. This is a known issue with this vehicle as it ended up
