A class action lawsuit has been filed against Hyundai alleging that certain Kia vehicles contain a design defect in the Integrated Central Control Unit (ICCU) that causes sudden power loss while driving. This defect allegedly affects the vehicle's electrical systems and can create dangerous driving conditions. If you own or lease an affected Kia vehicle and have experienced unexpected power loss, electrical issues, or related problems, you may be eligible to participate in this class action lawsuit. The case is currently in active litigation, and details about potential compensation are still being determined.

How Much Can You Get?
