The Korea Times reports that complaints related to electric vehicles (EVs) have nearly doubled over the past three years, with 173,000 complaints and petitions filed with the government between August 2023 and July 2024. The average monthly complaints have increased by 1.8 times, rising from 3,683 in 2023 to 6,578 cases in 2024.
The majority of these complaints and petitions are due to violations of charging area rules and demands for more charging facilities. In response to the surge in complaints, the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission has issued a complaints advisory, a system activated when petitions in a particular sector surge sharply. The commission has recommended that related agencies enhance oversight of charging areas, improve maintenance, and expand charging infrastructure to address these issues.
