“I had the known reported issue TSB 25-BE-004G repaired and even after repair there is a burning wire smell that the dealer claims they can’t replicate. We had the same issue with Genesis Plano initially and after driving the vehicle out of state we were stranded and took it to Genesis of Peoria where the issue was diagnosed. We are encountering the issue again and it is a fire risk hazard.”

“The infotainment system, while using Apple Car Play, is operating erratically, and at its worst goes to a completely black screen that does not accept any input from the touchscreen. In order to correct this persistent issue, I am either required to switch input sources on the buttons multiple times, unplug the USB cord or perform these combined steps repeatedly to force the infotainment screen to light up. I use Apple Car play 100% of the time, as I use Waze, Google maps, Amazon Music, Itunes etc while driving. …”

“Dear NHTSA, I am writing to lodge a formal complaint about significant safety issues that I have encountered with my 2019 Genesis G70 sedan. The driver and passenger seats in my car will recline but will not return to an upright position, making it impossible for either the driver or the passenger to wear a seatbelt. This issue constitutes a severe safety hazard. I brought my car to the dealership for diagnosis, and they acknowledged the problem but initially demanded a diagnostic fee of $245. The car is currently unusable due to the mentioned issue. …”

It feels as though the fuel is shut off or severely diminished as the vehicle will accelerate, but at a fraction (crawl) of the normal output available and accomplished in the past.”

“The contact owns a 2019 Genesis G70. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the audiovisual navigation screen displayed a blank screen. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The failure was persistent, and the audiovisual navigation screen was peeling and distorted. The contact was willing to pay out of pocket for the repair; however, parts were not available by any vendors. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The contact stated that several complaints were filed. …”
