I took my Ioniq 5 to the dealership because I was getting a "check EV system" warning light with the AWD warning as well.
Power was cut to less than half with reduced top speed. DTC stated something like "Drive Motor A" overcurrent/malfunction. After driving for 30+ miles and restarting the car, the errors would go away and the car would drive like normal. This happened twice in about 2 weeks.
The dealership did an initial inspection and couldn't find an issue. Hyundai tech line said to dig deeper, remove subframe and inspect the inverter for loose connections, and if nothing is found to replace the inverter.
Has anyone here ever had to replace an inverter? Sounds to me it's basically replacing the rear motor. Are replaced inverters expected to last as long and reliably as originals? I'm just worried that if it wasn't right from the factory that it would just be even harder to get right after the fact in a garage.
