Yes. For model years 2022-2023, expanded to 2022-2024 under NHTSA recall 24V265, a damaged Integrated Charging Control Unit can stop charging the 12V battery, causing a 'Check electrical system' warning, a drained 12V battery, disabled DC fast charging, and in some cases sudden loss of drive power while driving. The recall remedy is free at Hyundai dealers, involving a software update and, if the ICCU has already failed, replacement of the ICCU and 12V battery. Outside recall coverage, owner-reported ICCU replacement costs are roughly $1,700-$3,500 plus a $250-$400 12V battery, but these figures are not independently verified.
