Kia EV6 Recalled In India For ICCU Software Update
- Kia has recalled the EV6 in India.
- Recall affects vehicles manufactured between 3 March, 2022 and 14 April, 2023.
- Company to reach out to owners.
Kia has initiated a voluntary recall for the all-electric EV6 in the Indian market. Affecting 1380 units of the EV6 manufactured between 3 March 2022 and 14 April 2023, the recall is in regard to a software update in the integrated charging control unit in the electric vehicle. The software update, as per the company, will improve the performance of the 12V auxiliary battery. The company has stated that it will reach out to owners of the affected vehicles, to guide them through the process.
Coincidentally, In July 2024, Kia recalled 1,138 units of the EV6 electric SUV, manufactured over the same timeframe, over a potential issue with the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU) that could stop charging the 12-volt auxiliary battery. This was part of a larger global recall issued earlier that year, which saw a little over 48,000 EV6 models being recalled in the US for the same issue. The manufacturer has stated then that the issue would be fixed via a software update.
