“I was pulling into a parking spot and my vehicle suddenly lurch forward, and I had to slam on the brakes quickly, scraping the front of the curb. I checked there was no warning lights. I checked the floor mat, and this was not impeding the accelerator pedal I am certainly I did not accidentally hit the accelerator instead of the brake.”

“The vehicle popped up a screen that said check power source. Then within 30 seconds went into limp mode said power was limited and couldn't drive faster the. 25mph in the middle of a highway. By the time I pulled over to the side of the road my car was dead. Ive been trying to get Hyundai and the dealership to dignose the issue. Based on the error codes I was given it appears to be a dead iccu and 12v battery. I am in a ioniq group on Facebook and over the last week of being in it I've counted over 50 dead iccu on this group alone. All in one week.”

“My Ioniq6 slowed down to 20 mph for the second time tonight. No matter how hard I pressed on the accelerator the car would not speed up past 20 mph. A message on the dashboard said “Limit: 20 mph”. Eventually the car picked up speed then said “Limit: 43 mph”. (The speed limit on University Blvd at this point was 35 mph). I did not test that, as I was almost home. This happened around 7pm on Saturday, Nov 18, 2023. My wife was in the car with me and asked why I was driving so slowly. The first time this happened, a couple weeks ago, I don’t recall seeing a message on the dashboard. …”
