The Hyundai Motor Group is launching a massive recall of several electric vehicles across its three brands.

The recall affects electric vehicles based on the E-GMP platform, including the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6, the Genesis GV60, GV70, and G80 EVs, as well as the Kia EV6.

says that it has received 30 complaints of this problem occurring in the U.S. Owners report hearing a loud popping noise, followed by a warning message on their dashboard. While some owner only experienced a reduction in power, some lost it completely.
