VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN
July 13, 2023
Dear Kia
EV6 Vehicle Owner:
Kia
America, Inc. is conducting a Voluntary Service Campaign to inspect the Integrated Charging Control Unit (“ICCU”) and
install an improved software logic in certain 2022-2023 MY EV6 vehicles. If necessary, the ICCU and ICCU fuse will be
replaced. Our records indicate that you own or lease one of the potentially affected vehicles.
Why is Kia
Conducting This Service Campaign?
The Integrated Charging Control Unit (“ICCU”) in your vehicle may get damaged due to an over-current condition in the highvoltage system. This condition may cause the illumination of the Service Warning Light
, "Check electric vehicle
system", and/or "Stop vehicle and check power supply" warning messages, along with audible beeps, instructing you to stop
the vehicle at a safe location. Following these warnings, gradual reductions in power may occur. If the vehicle continues to
be driven, despite these warnings, it will gradually come to a halt. Kia
is conducting this Voluntary Service Campaign to
improve the ICCU software logic to prevent high-voltage circuit damage.
What Will Kia
Do?
Kia
dealers will inspect your vehicle’s ICCU and install software with improved over-current detection logic. If an ICCU
fault is found upon inspection, the ICCU and ICCU fuse will be replaced with new ones. This campaign will be performed
free of charge at no cost to you.
What Should You Do?
•
Please contact your Kia
dealer to schedule a service appointment at your earliest convenience. The time required to
perform the inspection and/or ICCU replacement can vary depending on the dealer’s work schedule, so a service
appointment is an important way of minimizing your inconvenience. Please present this notice when you arrive at the Kia![]()
dealer.
•
If you experience illumination of the Service Warning Light, "Check electric vehicle system", and/or "Stop vehicle and
check power supply" warning messages, along with audible beeps, stop your vehicle at a safe location and contact Kia![]()
Roadside Assistance online at kia.rsahelp.com or by phone at 800.333.4Kia (4542) to request towing assistance to the
closest authorized Kia
dealer to have your vehicle inspected.
