- 12V Battery Parasitic DrainModerate
A common issue across the Niro range where the auxiliary battery loses charge when parked. This is often caused by the vehicle failing to enter "sleep" mode or software glitches in the BMS.
- ICCU (Charging Unit) Failure (Niro EV)Serious
Similar to the EV6, the Niro EV can suffer from ICCU failure which prevents the 12V battery from being charged by the high-voltage system, leading to a breakdown.
