2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Vehicle speed control Problems

“I was at the grocery store and when I returned to my car and started it, I had an error message on the dashboard regarding the vehicle battery. When I put it into reverse, I heard a loud pop and received another error message. The car would only drive at 25 mph after that. I tried to drive home but the car died after a few miles and I was stranded at the side of the road. It was towed to a dealership and I have been told that it is an ICCU failure. At this point, I have been waiting 3 weeks for it to be fixed.”

We decided to take the chance to get back onto the highway for a the short distance back to our house at 30 mph and returned the car to the garage. It was towed this morning to the dealership and declared to have a failed ICCU unit. …”

“I was driving on a busy highway at a high but legal speed. For a few seconds the vehicle appeared to reset. I lost control and the screen went blank. It was a miracle I did not hit another vehicle. I contacted the dealer and they stated unless it was happening frequently - there is nothing they could do.
