2022 Genesis GV80 owner complaints

Driver's bottom seat is so uncomfortable and stiff that it is cutting off blood supply to my extremities after only few minutes of driving now. I have numb feeling in my feet and toes. I am worried that this will reduce my ability to brake (stop the car) correctly in case of emergency. It feels like sitting on two very uncomfortable metal bars that are penetrating into your [XXX] and cutting off your blood supply. Over time your entire body is exhausted requiring you move in your seat a lot, even when driving at highway speeds. Both of these are major safety concerns for me. Issue started on date of purchase and progressively got worse over time. Car was taken into dealer for assessment in Ogden, UT (my nearest service center) to be told verbally on the day of service that they found and

On Sat. 9/23/2023 while driving on Rt 78 in New jersey. My vehicle started to hydroplane when i hit a puddle of water during a rainstorm. It recovered and we continued home safely. On Sat. 10/14/2023 while driving on Int. 276 in Penna. My car once again hydroplaned when i drove thru several puddles of water during a rainstorm. Only this time it was more severe and quite frightening. I slowed down to about 30mph, put on my hazard flashers and got in the right lane to continue the trip home safely. I am submitting this complaint to see if there have been any other reported incidents like this involving this particular model vehicle. Thank you [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Car randomly will cut off at slow speeds and when entering roadways fails to accelerate at a sufficient pace with traffic (can put pedal to floor and doesn't accelerate). Have contacted dealer several times, told earliest available to get in for service is two months and they will not order replacement fuel pump/fuel cell till the car is dropped off, and replacement part takes four to six weeks to be delivered.

The fuel pump malfunctioned while driving 70 mph on the interstate. When the car shuts off, all the dashboard lights come on. Then the car does not allow you to accelerate. My husband and i almost lost our lives. Thankfully there was a shoulder on the left lane coming in from Louisiana to Texas. The car shut off 10+ times within an hour time span on the way home. My family’s safety was constantly at risk, so we immediately brought the vehicle to a Genesis dealership in Houston Tuesday August 8, 2023. It is now 9/21/23, and the fuel pump has not arrived yet because it is on back order.

Car stopped running while on the interstate. Could have crashed into others or others crashed into me. Mechanic confirmed it’s a bad fuel pump. 10 other Genesis GV80 in the shop for the same reason. No parts available.

My GV80 has been randomly shutting down at low RPMs for the past 8 weeks this happens WHEN I AM DRIVING and this is happening to other GV80 owners per my service manager I spoke to yesterday. I need a new fuel pump to fix the issue but they are on back order so I am left to drive a VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE until they get this part in. This issue does not show up with any diagnostic tools (autel, global, etc) no check engine lights ever come on and my connected car health always show healthy but my car has literally shutdown on the interstate and in the middle of many roads it is horrifying and the service manager told me ONE of his customers told him he only drives in the right lane now so he can pull off quickly when his GV80 dies. This is a much bigger and more dangerous issue please look

"What component or system failed or malfunctioned? Is it available for inspection upon request? Vehicle turned off in the middle of the road, warning it was hot How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The vehicle was driving on the highway and suddenly turned off without warning Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by an independent dealer or service center? Yeah Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Only because of the dealer and they have no remedy Were there warning lights, messages or other symptoms of the problem before the failure and when did they first appear? No

Horn stopped working while trying to use on the highway. This is after the passenger headlight failed in July 2025. Why are these safety concerns not being addressed by the manufacturer?

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 ar

The engine stalls as if it's not receiving fuel. It has stalled on the open highway and when pulling off from a stop. The vehicle has completely shutoff several times in the middle of traffic at the stop light or entering the highway.

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.

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

The contact stated that days later the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 4,000.

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 a

The contact owns a 2022 Genesis GV80. The contact stated that in November of 2023 while driving at 80 MPH with cruise control engaged and approaching another vehicle, the contact changed lanes and the vehicle automatically slowed down. The contact stated that while returning to the set speed, the warning lights except for the check engine warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed, and it was determined that the battery was not maintaining enough voltage for the ECU and that the battery needed to be replaced. The battery was not replaced because the dealer did not have the battery in stock. The contact was informed that he could go to any Genesis dealer, and the battery would be replaced if it was in stock. The con

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 stre
