Hyundai Recalls 145,000 EVs For Power Loss

Hyundai and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced Friday plans to recall more than 145,000 electric vehicles due to a fault that could lead to a loss of power while on the road, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

The problem stems from the integrated charging control unit, or ICCU. The unit, responsible for charging the car's onboard 12-volt battery, may become damaged and cause the battery to go flat.
