228. We love our Hyundai IONIQ 6 - but when the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit) failed without warning, it turned into a nightmare.
In this episode, I share exactly what happened, how the ICCU works and why every IONIQ 6 and IONIQ 5 owner should take this seriously. You’ll hear about the breakdown, the poor after-sales experience and how this issue is linked to a wider recall.
Whether you already own a Hyundai EV (or any EV for that matter) or are thinking about buying one, this is essential listening.
