As someone who's Kia is currently in the shop to get a blown ICCU fixed, yes.

Which is unfortunate because other than this, I love the car.

Did you get the fall 2024 ICCU update done at the dealer or did it blow after that anyway?

I've been in for all the standard maintenance since owning it (almost 2 years now), so I should be square on all updates.

Mine blew just about 3 weeks ago, and is still in the shop where they're apparently working with Kia engineers to figure something out.

I strongly suspect I'm the first one of these that has come in for this so they are learning as they go.
