EV Charging

Won't charge at home; won't work with some public chargers; won't fully charge; charge connection; charge port door.

What Owners Say

Problem with the charging cable/cord that came with this vehicle

"The L1 charger that came with the vehicle has unreliable connection/charging. When attempting to charge, it would often not start. Waiting an hour or two later, the issue would resolve. Sometimes, when it does start to charge, it would later stop. The app notification when charging stops indicates it met a user set charging condition, even though no such condition was set i.e. time based charging, or charge level setting. On message boards I found many experienced the same problem. If you rely on L1 charging, this may be a problem. Others mentioned 3rd party L1 chargers are more reliable."

Anonymous, CA (2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited Electric)
Won't charge at home

"After 2 months the Integrated Charging Control Unit caused a ground fault when plugged into a Level 2 or Level 1 EVSE. DC Fast Charging still works and I can drive the vehicle, but I cannot charge it at home. Replacement ICCU is back ordered and still waiting after two months."

Anonymous, WI (2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited Electric)
