Kia EV6

"Charging at home above 9kW would cause charging to stop due to the internal cable throwing an error. The current fix throttles charging to cool the cable down, which adds almost 3 extra hours to the charging process."

"I had to buy a 3rd party charging cable since one did not come with the vehicle. I use level 1 charging and program a schedule so that the car doesn't charge during peak hours (4-9pm). Mysteriously, about 30% of the time, the car would not start charging at 9pm when plugged in. After a couple software updates by the dealer, the problem got worse. Now charging won't start about 60% of the time, and it those cases it drains the 12v battery. The first time it happened, the car wouldn't start and I needed a jump. I can plug the car in any time outside the peak hours, and it charges fine. Dealer is baffled."

"The dealership did not include any charging cables with the vehicle even after I paid $600 for the charging cable they let me drive home with no charging cable. The dealership is over an hour and a half away, and I am a disabled veteran. Due to having no charging cable by the time I got home the vehicle was unable to be driven back to the dealership to get the charging cable and The next day I had a medical surgery done on my back so I couldnt drive anyway. Three weeks later I finally received the charging cable in order to charge a vehicle. I was paying on and a part that I paid for already for three weeks. After dealing with , the Dealership, who did not care at all and speaking with Kia corporate who also gave zero care. I will never buy IKEA again and Im currently waiting to trade this back in just to break even one month later they tried to sell me the EV nine that I had on order , which I originally wanted, but due to the situation that happened with my first vehicle I will never buy another Kia again. But to make matters even worse, Ive own this vehicle for six months and the air conditioner does not work at all and its gonna take four weeks for them to be able to get my vehicle in to be serviced. Its summertime and its almost 100 every day, why would I drive a brand new vehicle with no air conditioning and why would Dealership, or corporate allow a customer to be screwed this badly?"

"Randomly loosing connection. Tightened all connections with no results."

"The amplifier malfunctioned and required replacement after the prescribed software update did not work."

"When audio plays it will stop after 2 minutes or so. It may be in the settings in my phone"

"The EV6 has a serious issue with its ICCU, which is causing drainage of the OEM lead acid 12-volt battery and preventing it from maintaining an adequate state of recharge when re-charged (and ultimately stranding the driver on the side of the road when the ICCU finally fails completely). KIA is refusing the replace OEM lead acid 12-volt batteries under warranty due to this known and still unresolved issue unless and until the vehicle is towed to a dealer when the battery is completely dead. If the owner jump starts the vehicle just to get it to the dealer, the dealer will calim that the 12-volt battery is not dead, and that they will therefore not replace it under warranty."

"The projected distance and width of projection of the headlights of the U.S. version of the EV6 are both poor. Also, the auto high beam feature is not sensitive enough, to where high beams rarely come on when conditions warrant them being on."

"USB port unreliable as it frequently disconnects from the infotainment system causing interruption with Apple CarPlay. Dealer unable to solve the issue. Tried different brand new cables and phones and the problem persisted. Try different types of iPhones (15 Pro Max, 14 Plus, etc.) and problem persisted."
