The recall affects over 145,000 Hyundai and Genesis models, including the 2022–2024 Ioniq 5, 2023–2025 Ioniq 6, GV60, GV70, and 2023–2024 G80. It also covers nearly 63,000 Kia EV6 vehicles from 2022–2024.
The affiliated Korean automakers reported in government documents that a damaged transistor in the charging control unit can prevent the 12-volt battery from charging.
Dealers will inspect and replace the control unit and fuse as needed and update the software.
Owners whose vehicles were recalled earlier this year for the same issue will need to visit their dealer again. Notifications will be sent to affected owners by mail in December and January.
