Faults outside the engine in the 2024 Kia EV3
- High severityFrequency: CommonElectrical systemICCU fault: interrupted charging and car immobilisedThe EV3's ICCU (on-board charger, V2L and the converter that recharges the 12 V battery) has failed on a number of 2024-2025 units, causing charging cut-outs and stranded cars. Kia repairs it under warranty by replacement, with parts waits of several weeks.
- Low severityFrequency: OccasionalElectrical systemAC charging that drops in powerIn cold climates, AC charging on the EV3 starts at around 10-11 kW and drops to 4-7 kW (and occasionally to about 2 kW) after a few minutes, nearly doubling charging time. Kia has published several ICCU updates, without confirming that they fully fix it.
- Low severityFrequency: OccasionalElectrical system12 V battery discharge and wireless CarPlay faultsSeveral EV3 owners describe the car not starting after being parked, due to low 12 V battery voltage (one measured 11.9 V), plus freezing of wireless CarPlay. It was resolved with warranty batteries and battery management updates.
