GENESIS Complaints

Purchased my 2024 GV80 3.5t in June of 2024 and have been experiencing intermittent issues with the acceleration. Car hesitates when accelerating and can causing accidents while at an intersection making a turn. I have bought the car into the dealership three times, and they are unable to reproduce. Unfortunately, after reading the complaints and symptoms of the fuel pump recall for the 2021-2023 this issue seems identical. I have reach out to Genesis Corporate and they are no help and don't return calls or emails for days.

I was in a collision where another vehicle crashed into me at the driver's side front corner of my car. The other driver was going at least 30 miles per hour; I was probably going 10-20 miles per hour. None of my airbags deployed despite the collision resulting in a total loss to my vehicle.

The contact owns a 2022 Genesis G70. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle lost motive power. The contact stated that the failure had occurred while driving uphill. In addition, the contact stated that there were three minor children inside the vehicle during the failure. The contact was turned off and the vehicle. The contact stated that the vehicle was driven without failure. The contact stated that the failure had occurred several times and the failure was intermittent. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The contact stated that the vehicle had been taken to the dealer several times due to the failure. The failure was identified, but the vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was not repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V528000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and several cases were filed. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

The adaptive cruise control started pacing off vehicles in the right lane instead straight ahead. Then the vehicle's forward collision emergency brake system started engaging with no vehicles infront causing the vehicle to panic stop on its own for no reason. This panic stop could cause an accident, personal injury or death.

On numerous occasions, while driving with the adaptive cruise control on, at highway speeds, and no other vehicles near me, the system emits several beeps, shows that I'm close to a vehicle ahead of me (there isn't one), and initiates hard braking for maybe a couple of seconds. It is VERY disconcerting, and I haven't been able to find a common denominator for this issue, except that it seems to only happen during daylight hours, on sunny days. Should this happen while another car is following me, this could certainly cause an accident.

I called the 2 dealers, Genesis of Southfield and Genesis of Dearborn to set an appointment to address the vehicles recalls. Genesis of Southfield stated they are unable to address the recall until next year. I called Genesis of Dearborn multiple times and when trying to make an appointment, either I am put in hold or hung up on. I have left multiple voicemails, and they still have not called me back. I called Genesis corporate to address the issue and they said they cannot get the dealers to perform the recall sooner then next year as well.

The display in front of the driver which includes speedometer and tachometer, and other info went completely black. A small air bag warning light was the only functioning part of the display, so I assume that the air bags were not operational. Most associated functions such as cruise control were lost. The center accessory display was okay: the radio and navigation seemed okay, for example. The dealer asked me to drive it in to the dealership, which I did with a certain amount of apprehension. He has provided me with a "loaner". He said that I was not the first such failure he has seen at his dealership.

My car has malfunctioned under the following circumstances: While attempting to make an unprotected left turn at a traffic light intersection (there is no left turn only light) through active lanes of opposing traffic where there is no median lane and no protective barriers between opposite directions of traffic, my vehicle has executed emergency braking on 8 separate occasions. How it happens: I wait for the last opposing traffic car to clear out from the intersection and begin to make my left turn through the intersection. 10 feet into the intersection, where now I'm in opposing traffic lanes, the car initiates sudden and immediate emergency braking. The car is brought to a jarring complete stop and becomes immobilized, hitting the accelerator pedal does not move the car. The proximity sensors are going off, the blind spot sensors are going off, the collision warnings are going off and I am unable to move the vehicle for 3 seconds. Then all the sensors and warnings clear and the accelerator pedal starts to work again. Meanwhile, there is no car in sight. By the time I started making the left turn, the closest vehicle was about 30 feet behind me going the opposite direction in opposing traffic lanes. It appears my car's sensors are picking up the car that is behind me and thinks it is coming towards me rather than away from me while I have my turn signal indicator on. The car is trying to prevent a collision that it thinks will happen but in reality that car is going in the opposite direction and is well behind me. This has happened 3 times. Other times in the same exact type of turn, the car will initiate emergency braking that brings me to a 5 mph crawl and disables the accelerator pedal. So it brings me to a crawl and I lose the ability to accelerate while in the middle of an active intersection. This has happened 5 times. Inspected by dealership and corporate engineer 10 times. Several near accidents that would have hospitalized us. We have dashcam footage.

The contact owns a 2019 Genesis G70. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with fuel pump failure; however, the contact was informed that the parts were not available to repair the vehicle. The contact was informed that he could pay for the repair out of pocket, and later be reimbursed. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V528000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 63,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Battery begins discharge without warning while driving the vehicle. System begins complete shutdown without warning. Experiencing clunking and or jerking while driving no matter if speed acceleration/deceleration. Infotainment system goes out of function without notice - radio, sound, navigation, and safety cameras included. I feel unsafe during driving this vehicle as it does not give any warning when these issues occur. Once in traffic I had to slam on breaks after the truck just shot off after lightly pressing the gas to move forward. Whenever the vehicle is taken in for inspection, no issues are found. I reported the clunking before, the dealer claimed it was a faulty fuel pump. This is a brand-new vehicle and none of these issues should be happening.
