Hyundai Genesis coupe 2016
- Date Of Incident: 2023-01-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-16
- VIN: KMHHT6KJ3GU
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: My 2016 Genesis coupe will spontaneously, randomly accelerate, full throttle. I can't stop it until I throw it into neutral. There doesn't seem to be any common factor for it to happen. More often it was on the start up but sometimes as I was driving in traffic. The incidents are usually far apart. I have nearly wrecked too many times, so I parked it for good until I find the solution. I won't sell it and cause another person to possibly wreck or injure others. The local Hyundai dealership kept it for two months and test drove it but the problem didn't reoccur. They said nothing showed on the diagnostic (that past history on the diagnostic may have been erased) and they found no incident reports on this. So now I don't have transportation as my old truck is in the shop with transmission issues. Prob from over use. I can't afford to buy a new car until I can sell this one. Anyone know anything? The different occurrence is thorough out 2023 until parked approx April 2024

- Date Complaint: 2023-07-06
- VIN: KMHHU6KH4AU
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: The brakes on my 2010 Genesis Coupe suddenly stopped working while on the freeway, luckily I was able to swerve into the carpool lane and avoid an accident. Upon taking it to Tuttle Click Hyundai I was told a master technician had to review it, which would cost $200 just to look at it. When the technician looked at the car, I was told it needed a new Brake Booster. Hyundai apparently no longer makes this part so the dealership had to locate an aftermarket replacement which costs about $1,100. I did note to the dealership that there was recalls on other 2010 Genesis cars for similar issues, but was told the recall was for the sedans, not the coupe and that they/Hyundai would not cover it. Upon installing the brake booster and bleeding the brakes, it was found that I also need a new ABS Module, which will cost up to $4,000 to find and install. Another user posted this same issue to the NHTSA in October 2022.

- Date Complaint: 2022-10-03
- VIN: KMHHT6KD3AU
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: On September 22, 2022 while traveling at about 65 mph on state highway 57 in CA, I came upon a sudden group of cars hitting their brakes and had to slam on my brakes but my 2010 Genesis Coupe did not stop and I had to swerve into an entrance lane on my right to avoid a serious collision. Fortunately there were no cars entering the highway on that entrance. I was then able to drive a short distance home. On May 26, 2022 I had my car serviced including the brakes by Service Auto Care and my car gave me no brake problems until this incident. On September 23 I brought my Genesis Coupe to Service Auto and explained what happened. The brakes worked fine on the way to the shop. They tested the brakes and said that the ABS module was defective but it was just put under a 15 year extended warranty by Hyundai on May 19, 2022 and to take it to the closest dealer. The dealer, Russell Westbrook Hyundai of Anaheim told me only the sedan was covered. This dangerous defect could occur at any time and cause a severe accident. I hope this report is helpful to the NHTSA and the defective part is replaced without charge. The dealership charged me $205 for an estimate, then wanted $2200 to re-do the brakes and then approximately $4000 to replace the ABS module. I have documents to back up everything I have presented.

Vehicle year: 2010
When my wife and I were searching for an affordable car for our daughter, we stumbled upon a gem. The driving experience was one of the best I've ever had. The steering is tight and precise, and the turbo is more than quick enough for a normal commuter dodging cell-phone-users on the interstate. Everywhere I go, people stare at it in awe. The fact that it's a Hyundai blows them away. The only downside is that it belongs to my daughter...

Hi there! I'm a 27-year-old female and I absolutely adore my 2.0 R-spec. Before this, I drove a 2009 Honda Civic SI and never thought I'd find a car in the same price range that I loved more. But the Genesis beats the SI any day! Sure, there are some amenities that I wish Hyundai would add to the 2.0 models, like a 6spd manual transmission AND a sunroof, but the R-spec model is still amazing. Even though it lacks cruise control and automatic headlights, it's a sexy and GORGEOUS car (my friends all think it's a BMW at first). Plus, it handles like a dream and is incredibly fun to drive. I literally get questions and compliments on it ALL the time. Overall, I think the R-spec is awesome!

Vehicle year: 2012
The car is a blast to drive and it's the first vehicle that has ever replaced the thrill of the ninja ZX6R. The turbo feels smooth and kicks in hard. The only two areas that I would say need improvement (they seem to be on the 2013 model) are the quality of the interior and the performance. I gave both of those a 4 because the interior is nice but it does leave something to be desired, and the performance is great but they really should have used a larger intercooler and could have tuned it better. I have owned this car since new in February 2012. I bought the 2012 model because the 2013 front end just does not do it for me, and the 2012 is more mod-friendly. I have already switched to a single exhaust and SRI.

Vehicle year: 2012
I've owned this car for 8 months and have driven it from 140k to 158k miles. At first, I was a bit nervous about buying a turbo'd Hyundai with high mileage, but I went for it because the car was in great condition and ran smoothly. So far, it has been an excellent value and has not given me any issues. The car feels incredibly well-built and underrated. Now, let's talk about the performance. It's a blast! Hyundai designed this car with performance in mind, and it shows. While it's not a straight-line speed car, it's perfect for winding highways and country back roads. When you drive it aggressively, the car completely changes attitude and takes abuse really well. The back seats are not ideal for anyone over 5'5

I bought this car brand new in June of 2012 and have not had a single issue with it. Despite putting a little over 80000 miles on it, it is still going strong. Although there are some annoying rattles in the interior, both the exterior paint and interior are holding up exceptionally well. It gets great gas mileage and is pretty comfortable for road trips, even for my 6'2 and 230 lb frame. Overall, I think it was worth the money.
Are you having problems with your Hyundai Genesis coupe?

Hi there! I wanted to share my experience with my car. I purchased it brand new with only 30 miles on the odometer. Unfortunately, I experienced some issues with the transmission grinding on 2nd and 3rd gear. The dealer replaced it under warranty at 1500 miles, but the problem persisted even after several trips to the dealer. I reached out to consumer affairs, but have not received a response yet. I would recommend doing some research before purchasing this car, as I have found that many customers have had the same issue and Hyundai has not yet found a fix. According to the 2010 brochure, the car has triple-cone synchronizers on first through third gears to ensure smooth and durable shifting, but in my experience, it has not been smooth at all. I hope this information is helpful to you!

I bought this car new in 2010 and I absolutely love it! It gets lots of attention and has excellent handling and braking, making it really fun to drive. I've only had to make minimal repairs and the sound system is really good. The only downsides are that the manual transmission could be better and the seatbelt position is not great for shorter people. Additionally, while the back seat does fold down, the design means you only get about 20-24 inches of space to go through. The gas mileage is a bit disappointing for a 2.0 4 cylinder, with only 21 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway.
Colten Franecki 2025-04-27
Vehicle year: 2016
The 2013 2.0T premium model may experience a rattling sound emanating from the turbo waste, which has been reported by several owners. Despite Hyundai's refusal to address the issue, it is important to note that this is not a normal occurrence. The loose washers on a bolt sound can be quite unpleasant to hear. It is unfortunate that some owners have had negative experiences with their vehicles, but it is important to note that this is not representative of all Hyundai models. It is always advisable to consult with a certified mechanic to address any issues with your vehicle.

This car was my first brand new car and I owned it for a year and one month. Unfortunately, I have decided to trade it in due to some issues I faced. Within the first month, the back tail light had a small hole and water was getting in, but it was replaced. At about 10 months, the driver window rotator burned out and I had to get that replaced as well. Lastly, while driving back from a road-trip, I heard a 'helicopter noise' and realized that the small backseat window had flown off! It had literally de-glued and flew off the car in the middle of the highway! Despite all these issues, I really loved the car :( without all this.

You're in for a treat with this ride! It's beautiful, comfortable, and relatively inexpensive. However, there are a few issues with the transmission and waste gate design that can be a bit of a downer. After three thousand miles, you might notice some rattling from the waste gate and grinding from the transmission, which can be a bit concerning. Unfortunately, Hyundai claims that this is normal and won't take any action to fix it. Despite this, it's still a great ride that you'll enjoy!
