ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-28
- VIN: KMUHCESC2NU
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
- Summary: The electrical wiring harnesses affecting numerous safety systems (forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning) have been chewed through by rodents. Upon further research it was determined that starting in 2016 Asian automotive manufacturers (Nissan, Toyota, Kia, Hyundai) began using soy-based insulation in their wiring harnesses as alternatives to petroleum-based insulation. Rodents (mice, squirrels, etc.) are attracted to the wiring harnesses. The resultant damage and safety concerns led customers to file several lawsuits against the manufacturers. It is not clear whether Hyundai stopped the use of these soy-based wiring harnesses after 2021. Genesis is a spin-off of Hyundai, leveraging common parts. It appears that these soy-based wiring harnesses are being used in some of the 2022 GV80 models. Genesis currently burdens its customers with the cost to troubleshoot and replace these harnesses. Given the previous lawsuits and the continue risks of using these wiring harnesses in key safety systems, it is recommended that Hyundai and Genesis issue manufacturer recalls to ensure these harnesses are replaced with materials that do not attract rodents. We first started experiencing intermittent failures in in the highway driving assist system. Then, forward collision warning and lane departure warning systems. These became more pronounced until we brought the vehicle into Pearson Genesis of Richmond on 06/28/2024. After troubleshooting and inspecting the automobile, the technician showed us pictures of where rodents had eaten through wiring harnesses (attached). The cost to repair this over two visits totaled $957.42. I contacted Genesis headquarters suggesting they investigate this further, given the lawsuits. They agreed to offset my cost by $672, but did not agree to address the underlying problem.

POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-07-10
- VIN: KMUHBDSB6NU
- Components: POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: My Genesis is going to get me killed! The dealership has informed me that since it doesn't give them a code, they can't fix the issue. Here is a brief summary of my issue. On 8/2/23, while in the process of a lane change, my vehicle goes into limp mode, and I am almost rear-ended by a large Ford truck! I immediately look at the dash and see it is displaying "Park" and I switch it to "Drive". My vehicle picks up speed, and accident has been avoided. On 8/8, I left my home and went approximately 10 minutes away. I was in the store for about 15 minutes. When I walked up to the vehicle, I noticed that I had to use my key to unlock the door, which wasn't common nor did the side mirrors automatically unfold. Once inside the vehicle, every time I attempted to start the vehicle it would hesitate and turn-off immediately. Eventually I was able to get it started, so I put it in reverse. After moving 2-3 feet, it completely shut down while blocking several parking spots. My vehicle started, but by this time, the vehicle has been inoperable for approximately 45 minutes in 95-degree weather! I then contacted Genesis Roadside Assistance and arranged for the vehicle to be towed to Dick Smith Hyundai in Greenville, SC. 8/26 - My son was approximately an hour away in the vehicle, and it broke down. Since the dealership informed me that it was a battery issue, my son attempted to jump the vehicle off. The vehicle had to be towed. 9/6, I was taking a right out of the parking lot, once I got midway in the road (not completing my turn), I heard a grinding noise, the dash switched to park, and speed rapidly decreased. At the same time, the traffic that was halted by a red light is now rapidly approaching. I informed my daughter to brace herself, as I slowly prayed and rolled to the medium. The technicians has informed me that the vehicle is unsafe to drive. They kept the vehicle a month. I get it this week and it breaks down 4 times. I was almost hit when it broke down between 2 lanes.

ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-08-04
- VIN: KMUHBDSB8NU
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: I have been driving my car and it will automatically flip to neutral and start blinking all sorts of engine lights. I can sometimes stop the car and restart it, and it will be okay, but it typically takes a few tries. It has happened after I start my car and am in the driveway, when I'm going ~40MPH and when I'm on the interstate going >70MPH. I have an infant and have been in the car with him when this has happened. This is obviously anxiety inducing anytime I get in the car, but even more so when I need to transport him. I have requested a loaner car from multiple Genesis dealerships until they can diagnose and fix it, but most do not have appointments until September and expect me to drive my car until then.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-06-27
- VIN: KMUHCESC2NU
- Components: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
- Summary: While driving 45 mph on a straight stretch of a state road, I hit the brakes multiple times and decelerated so I could take the hard right exit and then make an immediate sharp left in a residential area. As I moved to the exiting lane, I turned on the right turn signal and eased off the brake. The car revved HARD, accelerated immediately and the cruise control icon + 58 mph began flashing on the display above the speedometer. I slammed the brakes to stop the car. I had not intentionally nor even accidentally turned on the cruise control (adaptive or otherwise) at any point during this trip or in any days leading up to it. I had been driving for just shy of 4 miles when this happened and had hit the brakes multiple times on this trip due to multiple sharp turns prior to the straight stretch. I was the lead car at various points in this trip, so if adaptive cruise had been on, I would’ve accelerated prior to this incident. Additionally, hitting the brake multiple times when I was traveling would’ve turned off cruise control had it been on already. We reported this to Genesis immediately and have awaited some closure, but they have been dismissive and unconcerned despite multiple points of outreach from us. We stopped driving the GV80 after a trip to the Genesis service center failed to provide any resolution. We are uncertain if the car is safe to drive and do not wish to chance it and would like some resolution.

ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-08-11
- VIN: KMUHCESC5NU
- Components: ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: 1) This vehicle was taken in for the seatbelt pretensioner issue and was turned away due to 'no replacement parts on hand'. To be clear an appointment was made indicating this is the service needed and the dealer could not complete the work. 2) Additionally this vehicle suffers from a sudden loss of power on the highway. If vehicles are following too closely there could be a serious accident. The failure mode of this condition is triggered by high temperatures 105 to 107 F there is a persistent DTC code P0087000 which indicates inadequate fuel pressure and maybe caused by fuel pump, pressure regulator, or sensor. At least once, when the car cools off the main computer (referred to 'the head unit' by Genesis customer care) can be 'reset', and all DTCs are cleared and Check Engine Light is cleared. Several owners of G70, GV70, and GV80 owners are reporting similar "sudden loss of engine power" on the owners forum.

- VIN: KMUHB4SB4NU
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: The vehicle has an issue stalling while in operation. The vehicle is not safe, especially when the vehicle stalls while operating in traffic. The issue puts many drivers and passengers at risk while operating on a roadway. The vehicle stalled in the following scenarios: entering a freeway, vehicle became unresponsive, but resumed power; entering traffic on an arterial roadway, but resumed power; turning at an intersection on an arterial roadway, vehicle lost power, vehicle became unresponsive and had to coast to a stop to be restarted; driving on a freeway at 70mph, vehicle became unresponsive and had to coast to a stop to be restarted; driving on an arterial roadway at 40mph, where vehicle became unresponsive and had to coast to a stop on a side street to be restarted. Retailer dealership was able to replicate the issue "three times", per the dealership, but did not get an error code or trouble code to fix the issue. On two occasions, dealership refused to address the issue further until a trouble or error code could be found. Dealership refused to keep the vehicle and to provide a loaner vehicle, despite validating that an issue existed with this vehicle and at least four other Genesis GV80 vehicles in Arizona. On August 22, 2022, dealership indicated that they would replace the high pressure fuel pump, which was an issue in the 2021 GV80 that resulted in a recall.

SEAT BELTS PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2022-03-29
- VIN: KMUHBDSB0NU
- Components: SEAT BELTS
- Summary: Seat belt does not retract properly. Often has slack and has to be tugged multiple times or pulled all the way out and then tugged with harder pressure to fully retract properly. This is not safe to drive around as the additional slack does not protect me in the event of a crash or accident. I took my car to the dealership to be repaired but was told I needed to book an appointment. The Service Manager simply tugged on the seatbelt until it retracted and told me I was good to go for the time being, which did not satisfy my safety concern. I have not had the seatbelt inspected by any government safety bodies just yet and no warning lights or sounds unless I unclick the seatbelt latch.

You'll be amazed when you first sit in this car. The beauty, style, and all the amazing features this car has to offer will draw you right in. The drive is so smooth and quiet. I love my GV 80!

I have the 2.5 AWD Prestige model and I must say, it is very comfortable. I love the look of the car, especially the 22” wheels and the massaging driver seat. The valet service with loaner car is also a great feature. Overall, I believe that you get a lot of value for your money with this car. However, there are two downsides to consider. Firstly, there is no spare tire and secondly, the gas mileage is not great when driving in town. Despite these minor issues, I have had the car for 8 months and have not experienced a single problem.

This is a great truck with unlimited features. I have never bought a truck that has everything in it like this one does. If you want a truck that stands out from the rest, this is the one for you.

Leased new GV80 2.5L Turbo and after 1k miles, I'm really enjoying how smooth and easy it is to drive. Although I've read about some concerning issues other owners have experienced, I'm happy to report that I haven't had any issues so far. I suspect Genesis is doing a great job of resolving these issues. The GV80 is superbly built and every surface area and control is top notch. Despite its size, it handles like a smaller vehicle. I'm getting great mileage too, with 28 on the highway and 23 in the city.

Great ride! I'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying the classy interior and excellent exterior look. It's no surprise that you get a lot of comments about how sharp the car looks. Plus, the good warranty is definitely a bonus!

Are you having problems with your 2022 Genesis Gv80?

I would rate the ride a '4+'! However, I must admit that it can be a bit scary when the car veers slightly out of lane and pulls you back. For a split second, you may feel like you're out of control. As a 67-year-old who spent 20 years in software, I find the advanced technology inside a bit frustrating at times. For instance, I received a text message saying my window was open, but when I checked, none of them were! I contacted Connected Services five times for five separate issues, but unfortunately, no one was able to provide me with any answers. Despite this, I still believe that the ride is great!

Handles well and rides comfortably. I loved it until I had to upgrade the GPS system. Unfortunately, since the upgrade, the weather system has become inoperable and the voice commands are not working. I have been to the dealership four times to reload the system with the same results. The Connected Services department can only recommend reloading and they have no idea how to fix the issue. I understand how frustrating this can be. I suggest contacting the dealership to see if they can offer any further assistance. As of now, I would not recommend buying this car until they figure out how to fix their system.

I am confident in giving this car a one-star rating due to the issues I have experienced within the first week of purchase. Despite being unsure if the RPM issue was normal, I continued to experience warning notifications while driving in regards to the park/drive dial. Currently, the car will not start and is unable to detect both key fobs. As a brand new car, this level of unreliability is unacceptable. I am hopeful that Genesis will replace the car and provide a more dependable vehicle.

The vehicle is experiencing some cosmetic issues, such as paint falling off around the wheel wells and rust appearing behind the chrome trim on all doors. These issues can be addressed with proper maintenance and care.

I have owned my GV80 Advance+V6T-AWD since 6/2021, but unfortunately, it has spent most of its time in the dealership for repairs, ranging from 1 week to 3+ months intervals. I have experienced several issues with the GV80, including lane departure, front sensing, frontal collision, engine light on, and other system errors, all while it has less than 4,000 miles. As of 3/2022, the Genesis Navigation fails to route to anywhere, unless it’s offline! It is disappointing that the dealership experience has not been up to par, especially since Genesis is a fairly new luxury brand. I feel like they treat us like we have a $25k Hyundai, even though it costs almost $75k (included markup on chip shortage). It is surprising that even my daily driver, Honda, and the Honda dealership has better services. I hope that Genesis will take customer experiences and reliability seriously and invest in a separate dealership, not the current Hyundai/Genesis setup. By the way, I have fewer issues with my 20-30+ weekend classic cars in terms of reliability! Additionally, the advertised Genesis Valet Service (sales gimmick) is not as great as it seems. Their schedule is always several weeks away, and they mostly show up with a lower model vehicle as a loaner if you use it. Hence, they always recommend us to drop the vehicle ourselves to the dealership.
