Genesis is recalling more than 500 electric vehicles (EVs) as part of a global recall campaign to address a fault with their Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU).

    “Due to a software issue in the Integrated Charging Control Unit, the auxiliary 12 Volt battery may not charge as intended, resulting in battery drainage and loss of motive power,” the company says in its recall notice.

    “A loss of motive power whilst driving could increase the risk of an accident causing injury or death to vehicle occupants and/or other road users.”

    If you own an affected vehicle, you’ll need to schedule an appointment with a Genesis dealership to have the software updated, free of charge.

    If you have any further questions, you can contact the company on 1800 908 070.
