  The contact serviced a 2023 Genesis GV70. The contact stated that the RSPA (Remote Smart Parking Assist) feature was used to remotely move the vehicle from the parking space and the vehicle was turned off. However, moments later the vehicle was restarted and shifted into reverse(R) and the vehicle unintendedly accelerated and crashed into another parked vehicle. The contact stated that during the failure the vehicle was driving approximately 20 MPH. Additionally, while depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle failed to stop or decelerate. The gear selector and START/STOP button were pressed but was inoperable. The failure mileage was 27,000.

  There is an intermittent malfunction on startup. A warning alarm and large graphic saying, "check tire pressure monitoring system." The vehicle has a full bumper-to-bumper warranty from the manufacturer. I have documented the problem through multiple videos and pictures, but since the diagnostic codes show everything is fine, the dealer is refusing to do anything at all. I don't feel safe driving a car that has random alarm warnings regarding tire pressure.

  The vehicle experienced difficulty starting, followed by the engine nearly stalling. Immediately afterward, diagnostic trouble code P0087F0 (Fuel Rail/System Pressure Too Low) was triggered and stored as an open code. This indicates the fuel rail/system pressure dropped below the level needed for normal engine operation, meaning the engine was not receiving adequate fuel. The failed component appears to be the fuel delivery/fuel pressure system (fuel pump or fuel rail). The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety may be put at risk because the engine nearly stalled while driving, which could cause a sudden loss of power in traffic, while merging, or at highway speed. The…

  I had noticed my GV70 had not been functioning correctly for about 3 weeks prior to scheduled maintenance due. The vehicle has become slow and sluggish accelerating. Was concerning as I had pulled out in traffic not expecting limited acceleration. NO check engine or warning signs displayed. I traveled from Midland, TX to Genesis of Grapevine for scheduled maintenance to be performed. Later that day was informed that my radiator had been crack. Due to road debris and my extended warranty would not cover it most likely. Of course road damage would have had caused this as my expensive vehicle has never been off road. After researching Genesis Forum I have learned that this is a structural…

  The headlight assemblies, both headlights, (headlamp housing) failed due to structural factory stress fracturing. The polycarbonate outer lens has developed clean, horizontal hairline cracks originating directly from the sealed lower edge where the housing meets the internal bumper brackets. This structural failure has breached the factory seal, causing severe water pooling inside the light assembly. Yes, the vehicle and the failing component are available for inspection upon request. The severe water accumulation inside the headlamp assembly poses an immediate night-driving safety hazard. Moisture intrusion directly exposes critical electrical connections and LED components to pooling…

  While driving on the expressway during rush-hour traffic, multiple warning lights illuminated on the dashboard and several error messages appeared. At the same time, the vehicle began repeatedly jerking while I was traveling at low speed in heavy traffic. I continued driving for approximately 10 seconds, but the jerking continued. Because of the unusual vehicle behavior and the warning messages, I pulled over to the side of the road. After stopping, I attempted to shift the transmission into Park, but the vehicle would not allow me to change the gear. I turned the engine off and restarted the vehicle, but I was still unable to shift the vehicle into Drive. I attempted this three times. On…

  My AC in my 2023 GV 70 stopped working. Apparently this is a known defect but I was never notified. Im currently in NC, 3 hours from my home in [XXX] where the heat index is 110 degrees. Now i have to drive home to get service without AC. I reached out to the dealer four times today including the service manager, service coordinator and Anthony the GM but no one has returned my call. I called Genesis customer service and their response was “sorry no appointments until late next week and we have no loaners until late September”. Clearly, no one at Genesis at the dealer level or corporate cares enough to help me solve this problem so I am forced to find an independent mechanic who can…
