Common 2017 Genesis G90 problems

The 2017 Genesis G90, a luxury sedan from Hyundai's premium brand, has received mixed reviews from owners. While some have praised its comfort, quiet interior, and excellent stereo, others have reported various issues that might be of concern to potential buyers.

One of the most common complaints is poor reliability. According to a report by CoPilot, the 2017 Genesis G90 has several common problems, including poor emergency handling, broken shock absorbers, headlights going out early, strut assembly damage, and car door lock actuator damage. These issues can be relatively minor but could also be dangerous and expensive to fix.

Another issue reported by some owners is the glitchy tech and electronic features. The G90's voice controls, Bluetooth, and wireless phone charger have proven problematic, with confusing menus and difficulty in sifting through them. In some cases, owners have had to manually type in addresses for their destinations, which is a significant inconvenience.

Additionally, the G90's limited dealer network has been a source of frustration for some owners. Genesis dealers are only in major metropolitan areas, which can be a problem for those living in smaller towns or rural areas.

The 2017 Genesis G90 also has limited USB ports, with only two available, one in the front and one in the rear. This can be an issue for those who need to charge or connect multiple devices while driving.

Finally, some owners have reported odd popping noises coming from the rear speakers, particularly in cooler temperatures. This issue has been attributed to fall's cooler temperatures, but it is unclear whether it is a widespread problem or limited to a small number of vehicles.

In conclusion, while the 2017 Genesis G90 has many positive attributes, potential buyers should be aware of these common problems and consider them when making their purchasing decision.

2017 Genesis G90 engine

Is the Genesis G90 reliable?

For example, according to iseecars.com, the most reliable Genesis G90 year benefits from a higher reliability score than its predecessor, totaling 6.7 out of 10. While that's not stand-out or spectacular, this is a better score than you might expect if you have already driven one of the previous Genesis models.

How many miles will a Genesis G90 last?

40,000 miles

The Genesis G90 can last for more than 40,000 miles and even up to 100,000 or more miles without many issues.

How long will G90 last?

If the rate of corrosion were, for example, 0.05 mil/year [1.25 μm/year], the life of a G90 coating would be approximately 16 to 17 years, since a G90 coating is approximately 0.83 mil [21 μm] thick on each side of the coated steel sheet.

Is Genesis engine reliable?

All in all, Genesis is a reliable brand you can trust if you're looking for a pre-owned luxury vehicle.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2017-09-08
  • VIN: KMHG54JH8HU
  • Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
  • Summary: ON 06/10/2017 WE PURCHASED A G90 GENESIS FROM SOUTH CHARLOTTE HYUNDAI AT 8525 SOUTH BLVD CHARLOTTE NC. THE TEAM WAS VERY CONVINCING ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE VEHICLE & THE 10-YEAR WARRANTY. THE CAR WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE CAR COSTING $74,678.47, BUT WE WERE ASSURED IT WAS THE BEST CAR & WARRANTY IN THE BUSINESS. WE STARTING TO HAVE CRASH SENSORS GOING OFF EVEN AT TIMES WHEN NO OTHER CARS WERE EVEN NEAR THE CAR. THEY INDICATED THAT THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM, BUT THE 'FALSE' CRASH WARNING PERSISTED & EVEN EXPERIENCED THE CAR AUTO STOPPING IN AN INTERSECTION WHEN IN FACT IT WAS A FALSE SENSOR AS NO CAR WAS EVEN IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS BECAME LIFE THREATENING & SERIOUS. SOUTH CHARLOTTE HYUNDAI HAD THE CAR IN THE SHOP YET AGAIN & THEN INDICATED THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM NOR COULD THEY RECREATE IT. SO, THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM & THEY HAD DONE ALL THEY COULD. BECAUSE THE CRASH SENSORS STAY ON FOR AN EXTENDED TIME ONCE THEY GO OFF, WE WERE ABLE TO RECORD A VIDEO OF WHAT WAS GOING. THIS WAS SHARED WITH THEM & EVEN AFTER THE VIDEO THEY INDICATED THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM EVEN BROUGHT IN 'FACTORY EXPERTS' & SO WE SHOULD BE GOOD. WE EXPERIENCED OTHER CRASH LOCKUPS & AT ONE POINT GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WITH NO CARS AROUND THEY CRASH SENSORS WENT AWRY. OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST YEAR THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP MORE THAN 5 TIMES. I AM ATTACHING THE LATEST ONE WHERE THE CAR WAS IN THEIR POSSESSION FOR OVER 14 DAY & THE ORDER SHOWS THEY REPLACED SENSORS. UNFORTUNATELY, WE JUST RECORDED ANOTHER FALSE CRASH EVENT. THERE SEEMS TO BE THE POSSIBILITY THAT THERE IS EITHER AN ISSUE WITH SOUTH CHARLOTTE HYUNDAI OR PERHAPS A BROADER ISSUE WITH THE SENSORS IN THE GENESIS LINE OF VEHICLES. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF OUR SITUATION & SEEMS TO BE NON-RESPONSIVE WHICH MAKES US THINK THERE IS MORE TO THE FALSE CRASH WARNINGS & ABRUPT STOPS.

THE DEALER HAS CONSULTED WITH HYUNDAI, AND THEY FREELY ADMIT TO ME THAT THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 5-6 TIMES, WHERE THEY MANUALLY ADJUST THE LIGHTS WITH A SCREWDRIVER, BUT THE LIGHTS ON THEIR OWN RE SELF-ADJUST TO EITHER TOO LOW, OR TOO HIGH AND IN NEITHER CASE THE ROADWAY BEING SAFELY ILLUMINATED. MOST OF THE TIME THEY ARE TOO LOW. I HAVE GOTTEN 4 FLATS BECAUSE OF POOR ILLUMINATION. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVER THE CAR AT NIGHT. PHOTOS ATTACHED SHOW THE BEAM IN THE NYC HOLLAND TUNNEL, SHOWING THE LOW BEAM LOW, AND NOT ILLUMINATING PAST ABOUT 75'. I HAVE MANY OTHER PHOTOS, PLUS DASH CAM VIDEOS SHOWING THE PROBLEM.

Negative 2017 Genesis G90 car reviews

  1. London Morar 2024-04-05

    My G90 has been in the shop for two weeks with less than 200 miles on it. This is not a good start. I am disappointed with the service provided by Paramus Hyundai.

Positive 2017 Genesis G90 car reviews

  1. Jamaal Lehner 2025-01-03

    The Genesis G90 5.0 Ultimate is an excellent value, offering 95% of the luxury and technology of established European luxury brands at only 70% of the price. While it may not have the Tri-Star, Rings or Propeller of those brands, the build quality, luxury amenities and ride quality are awfully close. As someone who has owned a few Infiniti's and other luxury brands, I can say that I am very satisfied with the Genesis. I understand that some may believe a Korean luxury car is an oxymoron, but I encourage you to give it a try. You have nothing to lose and may even find a better investment for the $25 grand you'll save. I strongly recommend taking a test drive and experiencing the quiet, luxurious, and safe ride for yourself. While the fuel economy may not be the greatest, the turbine smooth power is worth the trade off. After a year and a half of ownership, I can confidently say that this is the best car I have ever owned. The only issue I have encountered is with the LED headlights, which illuminate well up to about one car length before a dark line appears. I have brought this up with the dealer, but they have informed me that it is a normal occurrence with LED headlights. Nonetheless, this minor issue does not detract from the overall excellence of the Genesis G90 5.0 Ultimate.I think the car is great, except for the headlights which I find dangerous when driving at night with only the high beams on. The Genesis launch could have been better, with a more advertised and better distributed dealer network. However, I still love my 2017 model, which is safe and comfortable, and has all the amenities I need. I hope Hyundai/Genesis will improve their act soon, so more people can enjoy these great cars. I have had no issues with the car, except for the original equipment tires which wore out quickly. I replaced them with the highly rated Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 and have been very happy with them. Overall, it is a fantastic road car that gets respectable mileage considering its size and a 420 hp V8. It does a lot of kid duty since our 6 year old great granddaughter lives with us during the week and we take her to school and pick her up plus the normal running around we do.I highly recommend the 2020 G90 for anyone looking for a luxurious and smooth ride. I recently traded in my 2017 for the 2020 model with the 5.0 V8 and I couldn't be happier. The interior still looks as good as the day I took delivery and I haven't had to spend a dime on service, except for the tires. While the European brands may have more cachet, the G90 offers comparable features and savings of $25,000 to $40,000. I've been a happy camper since I first got my 2017 and now with the 2020 G90, I'm even happier! It's been eight months since I got the 2020 G90 and I can confidently say that it's a fantastic bargain with noticeable improvements in ride quality and NVH.

  2. Kayleigh Schumm 2024-11-05

    It's not the cheapest purchase, but it's definitely more affordable than a Mercedes or Lexus.

  3. Emerson Hansen 2024-05-24

    I've been a BMW guy for 30 years, but now that I'm 62 and retiring, I wanted a new luxury car. Unfortunately, the BMW 550I is now very expensive. However, I recently heard about the Genesis G90 and was blown away by its $10,000.00 lower price tag. The interior luxury is much better, the electronics are superior, and it looks beautiful. I've decided to switch to Genesis from now on.

  4. Vern Runolfsdottir 2024-05-02

    This car is extremely comfortable and powerful. It comes with most of the bells and whistles you could desire, making it a true keeper.

  5. Nolan Yundt 2024-04-13

    This car has been a beautiful, dependable car with every bell and whistle one could ask for. It's still a brand new car with very low mileage.
