Hyundai, Kia, Genesis Recall Nearly Every Single e-GMP EV In America

Following a similar action in South Korea, where Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis recalled 170,000 EVs, the three affiliated companies are recalling what appears to be nearly every electric model in their lineup based on the e-GMP platform in America due to the same issue with a component responsible for charging the 12-volt battery. Despite powering auxiliary systems rather than the motor, if the 12-volt battery becomes depleted, it may cause the vehicle to stall.

Eventually, Hyundai determined that, under specific conditions, the ICCU's internal components could fuse, hindering the charging of the 12-volt battery.
