Couple of days ago, I posted that I think I joined a rare club (double ICCU failure). We finally thawed out here in Texas, so I had it towed up to the dealer. They've already done the diagnostic and confirmed it has failed after only 15k miles (replaced at 70k or so miles, currently at 85k). Also confirmed that all updates were done during the first replacement. 

My advisor confirmed that he is no longer seeing a back order and that they have been banging them out rather quickly. Per usual, they put me in a rental and sent me on my way (K4 for anyone curious). 

Had to laugh, as the service technician said he advised changing the battery as it was low... after saying that the part that charges the battery is bad. Given the temperature and that we drove the car onto the tow truck, I'd hope the battery was a little low without a way to recharge it... 

Side note: My car is a CPO and there's some confusion on towing. When I called in for a tow, I was shocked to hear there was a fee of $22.50. When pressed, the representative said there was a mileage block/limit. I laughed and said the dealer is 2.9 miles away...does that mean my tow limit is 2 miles or something. She apologized and said that the system isn't sharing details with her and there was nothing she can do. When I got to the dealer, the service advisor was really confused because he said I absolutely should not have been charged, and he'll look into reimbursement. I told him I'm really not sweating $22 for a tow, but am more so just curious. For anyone curious, Mario at Kia of Frisco in Texas is absolutely amazing, if anyone needs help with their vehicles.

Confirmed 2nd ICCU Failure in 15k miles
