I BOUGHT GENESIS AT MARCH 24.2015, AND I AM NOT OWNER RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I SOLD THAT CAR. WHEN I BOUGHT CAR, THERE WERE NOISE AT ENGINE AT NEW CAR. AFTER CHEKING THE CAR, HYUNDAI ENGINEER SAID " SHORT BLOCK PROBLEM". IT IS EXACTLY SAME PROBLEM OF SONATA (THETA 2 ENGINE). I THINK GENESIS ENGINE(RHAMDA 3.8) ALSO HAVE PROBLEM. I WILL ATTACH RELATED PAPER. THANK YOU. *TR

A/C, HEATER VENTS LOCATED ON THE BOTTOM (FOOT) FOR DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER ARE ALWAYS STAY OPEN IRREGARDLESS WHAT YOU SELECT. DEALER LOOKED TWICE, NO HELP. SAID THAT'S HOW ALL THE CARS ARE. I HAVE MYSELF CHECKED THE BRAND NEW 2017 GENESIS PARKER ON THE LOT AND IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. YOUR FEET WILL FREEZE AND THERE IS NO WAY TO BLOCK OR CLOSE THE BOTTOM VENTS. ALSO, THE HAPTIC STEERING WHEEL WARNING CAME ON AT AROUND 5K MILES, DEALER LOOKED AT IT ORDER SOME PARTS TO REPLACE THE SENSOR ETC.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE SUN/MOON ROOF ON MY VEHICLE SHATTERED. I HEARD A LOUD BOOM AND THOUGHT I HAD BLOWN A TIRE. A FEW MINUTES LATER I HEARD AIR RUSHING AND A CRACKLING SOUND. I OPENED THE SUN/MOON ROOF COVER AND SAW THE COMPLETE GLASS ROOF WAS SHATTERED. AS I DROVE DOWN THE ROAD FURTHER, GLASS SHARDS FLEW DOWN THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE ONTO THE ROAD BEHIND ME AS WELL AS ONTO THE SUNROOF COVER THAT I HAD CLOSED AFTER I SAW THE SHATTERED ROOF.

THE CURRENT TIRES WERE REPLACED IN SEPTEMBER 2015, I HAVE HAD THREE INSTANCES OF TIRES BLOWING OUT THE SIDEWALL AND A TOTAL OF 7 TIRES REPLACED IN LESS THEN 10K MILES
