2024 Kia EV6 owner complaints

I am reporting suspected odometer fraud and misreported mileage/VIN/title data by Greenway Kia North (Longwood, FL) involving my 2024 Kia EV6 GT-Line (VIN: [XXX] ) and my 2017 Audi Q5 trade-in. These actions appear to violate the Federal Odometer Act (49 U.S.C. § 32705 and 327 and Florida title/odometer laws. After attempts to resolve the matter, I issued a rescission and statutory-demand notice on Nov. 8; the dealer provided no adequate response. Title/Registration Misrepresentation: My Audi Q5 (dark blue) was submitted to FLHSMV as “Monsoon Gray.” The EV6 (Aurora Black Pearl) was submitted as “Blue.” I verbally corrected both errors at signing; the dealer ignored them, and the false data was transmitted to the State and later reported through Carfax. This indicates intentional or reckles

The exterior rear-view mirrors on my car do not have detents to hold them in place in the deployed position. All side-view mirrors have such detents. The mirror assembly is held in place such that the mirrors remain aimed where the driver sets them. If the mirror experiences a significant force from, say a person walking into them, the detent releases and the mirror folds back against the car, avoiding damage. On my car and other affected cars, these detents are not present and the force of closing the car doors, wind from high-speed driving, or even a bumpy road can cause the mirrors to move from their intended position, causing the driver to misjudge the position of other vehicles, an obvious safety hazard. Posts on online forums dating back to 2022 report this issue, and by simply exa

Sun roof/moon roof exploded without reason.

When I stopped the car in a parking lot, before I could engage the parking brake, the vehicle suddenly accelerated and climbed over the curb adjacent to the side walk. Stopped for few seconds and again suddently started accelerating. I could not stop the car as the brake appeared to be disenaged completely and was going all the way to the floor. The car went on the side walk, and descended on the road from the side walk and crossed the road, climbed on the curb again and stopped on the grassy area. Side airbag on the driver side inflated and the drive seatbelt tightened.

Brakes failed with unintened acceleration. We were stopped behind a truck at a stoplight when the the vehicle accelerated with a foot on the brake. We had it towed from the scene of the accident to our local dealership for testing. They had the vehicle for 4 weeks. Kia customer care was not responsive to our calls and emails or the dealerships. The dealership could not confirm the cause without their cooperation. The police were called to the scene of the accident and there is a report. The vehicle has been looked over by the service department at our local Kia lot. It was appraised for cost of damages by the collision center.

I've had to have my rental car jumped 3 times now, the check engine light has been on since I rented it, had to be reset and is now back on. I believe it's the 12v battery, it pops up warnings of battery discharge almost daily. All 3 times it was shut off and when I went to start it, it wouldn't turn on, 3 seperate people have jumped it for me now in 3 different locations, the last one being while I was working and had to end the delivery because my car would not start so I am now unable to work as they have paused my deliveries until my account is reviewed. I am putting the first date I noticed the check engine light, which was the day I rented the vehicle. The not starting has happened on the following dates: [XXX], [XXX] and today [XXX]. I recall noticing the battery discharge warning f

Dear Kia Customer Care, I am writing to formally report a serious and recurring safety issue with my Kia vehicle. I have repeatedly experienced a "Power Limited" error while driving, often accompanied by a turtle icon and a "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning. On multiple occasions, the vehicle has suddenly lost power and stalled in the middle of the road. This is extremely dangerous and has put me and other drivers at risk. A vehicle should never lose propulsion unexpectedly, especially in active traffic conditions. I request an immediate investigation into this issue, along with a clear explanation of the cause and a permanent fix. Please treat this matter with urgency, as it directly concerns driver safety. Kindly confirm the next steps and the earliest available service appoint

I was driving my car on the highway, then I got the message çheck your electrical system'for around a minute. Then there was a rumble or bang as if I hit something with the back, but the road was clean. Then the car started slowing down and I drove to the side. I got out of the car and saw white smoke coming from under the car in the back. I started opening the hood and trunk in the back to find out, where the smoke came from. It was nothing to see. Because it was an electrical car I assumed, that it could start burning, when it smells like smoke and looks like smoke. So I called 911 and told them, that I think my electric car is starting to burn, where I am and that nobody was injured. I took everything out of the car, closed the hood, the trunk and the doors and moved in a safe distance

My 2024 Kia EV6 is experiencing a total failure of the 12V charging system and requires manual jumpstarts to operate. The official ICCU safety recall (SC327) was previously performed, which is why the NHTSA database shows 0 unrepaired recalls for this VIN. However, the manufacturer's remedy has completely failed. Per NHTSA safety guidelines, this vehicle is currently subject to a sudden loss of motive power while driving and is unsafe to operate on public roads.

ICCU failed. Heard a popping sound from rear of passenger compartment, dash errors lit up, car went to limp mode

Description of Incident: 1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The high-voltage battery system and charging system in my 2024 Kia EV6 malfunctioned. Despite showing 40 miles of range remaining, the battery suddenly dropped to 5 miles before the car became completely unresponsive and failed to charge. Additionally, the vehicle could not be shifted into neutral or powered on. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The sudden loss of battery range left me stranded at a Shell Recharge station in Elkridge, MD, at [XXX] on[XXX]. Being stranded at this hour posed a personal safety risk, especially in an unfamiliar area, as I was unable to move the vehicle.

Something with the electrical system in this electric vehicle was not functioning properly as the car would go into "turtle mode" as the service department called it. 45 mph then dropping to 30 mph before reaching the dealership. My safety was at risk because driving on the highway could have had someone rear end up by slowing down. The dealership has been inspected. Waiting at the dealership since Monday Oct 12, 2026. I don't think my vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. Vehicle would warn to check the battery system at car start. Upon driving the car will notify and show a battery red light on the dashboard. The notification will say to stop and check the electrical system.

Kia has a known ICCU issue with several of their electric vehicles. Mine went out yesterday creating an extremely dangerous situation on the road. After it blew, I lost the ability to accelerate or steer. This was obviously very scary for me and the drivers around me. I feel very lucky to have not been hit by another car. Although Kia is replacing these, this does not guarantee a fix. That is to say, the ICCU has the potential to blow again after replaced because the core issue is not something that Kia group has reengineered. I should not have to fear getting into my vehicle and wonder if it will blow again. I hope the government steps in and conducts an investigation into this. It’s only a matter of time before someone, unfortunately, will lose a life over this.

I got into my car in a hurry i put my car in drive as i was closing my driver's door and took off and because the door wasn't fully closed the parking brake engaged itself but the power over comes the parking brake, when i let off the throttle the rear wheels locked up causing the car to slide out of control. I pushed on the throttle again to unlock the rear wheels causing me to swerve in the other lane and almost crash into an incoming car. I tried to turn off the brake and could not without stopping the car so i had to skid out of control again stopping to turn it off.

I was driving on the freeway steady at 72mph and the car suddenly accelerated on its own. It hit 90 within seconds and I had to step on the break for the car to slow down.

In NORMAL driving mode, when I fully depressed the acceleration and quickly release, the vehicle continues accelerating . I almost crashed into the car in front of me in stop and go traffic.

While driving in the rain, the vehicle failed to decelerate and brake efficiently. There were two event this morning (12/18/24). 1. Approaching a red light with Regen braking set to lvl 3 the car failed to slow after removing my foot from the accelerator. Quickly i began applying braking force with the brake pedal, but there was no change in the vehicles speed. Finally I firmly forced the brake pedal to the floor and the car came to a quick stop with ABS kicking in. Thinking that some of the sensors may have been affected by the wet road conditions, i disabled regen/ self braking. 2. With regen set to zero I began approaching slower traffic in a bend on the highway. When i saw brake lights ahead i began to brake and the pedal did not respond. It wasn't firm, nor soft just "regular". Knowin

When washing my car at an automated car wash my brakes failed when exiting the facility. When the wash was completed it gave me the approval to leave. I tapped on the gas pedal to get the car moving slowly. The car started to move down the ramp and when I applied the brakes there was no response. I pumped the brakes several times but they did not engage. I tried to hit the parking brake and shift into reverse and nothing happened. I finally had no choice but to hit a wall to keep from hitting a vehicle. I did contact the dealership and they were non responsive. They indicated they had never heard of a wet brake issue on this vehicle. I provided them with several statements from the EV6 Forum. My vehicle had less than 600 miles on the odometer.
