Kia is recalling over 62,000 of its 2022-2024 EV6 vehicles.  

The automobile manufacturer is recalling 62,872 cars for a loss of drive power from a damaged charging unit. In the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recall report Kia said the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) may become damaged and stop charging the 12-volt battery, which can result in a loss of drive power and increase the risk of a crash.

Kia dealers will inspect and replace the ICCU and its fuse, if necessary, as well as update the ICCU software for free, according to the NHTSA recall report. Recall notification letters are expected to be delivered by Dec. 13 and owners may contact Kia customer service (1-800-333-4542). The NHTSA notice says this recall expands and replaces a previous recall (24V-200), and if your vehicle was repaired under the previous recall, you will need to have the new maintenance completed.

Kia recall for instrument panel display failure 

Last month, Kia issued a recall for 14,163 of its 2024-2025 EV9 vehicles. The NHTSA recall report said “due to a software error, the instrument panel screen may fail.” When an instrument panel screen fails to display critical safety information, like the speedometer or warning lights, it can increase the risk of a crash, the report said. 

In addition, the government agency said “these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 101, ‘Controls and Displays.’”
