Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“At speeds above 40 MPH with both hands and a good grip on the steering wheel I frequently receive the display warning keep hands on steering wheel and a loud audio warning. The loud warning is not only annoying but startling to everyone in the car. If I take my hands off the wheel the message goes away. If I leave my hands on the wheel and even grip tighter the warning continues until there is a message that the lane keeping assist system will be disabled temporarily. This warning may repeat at 30 second intervals or less. …”

“My concern for this vehicle is the panoramic sun roofs / moon roofs. I am hearing a lot of crunching, grinding, cricking, binding coming from panoramic sun roof. Sounds like it’s the assembly and glass making noise while driving, Turning into and out of driveways, going over speed bumps, pot holes, etc. My concern is will the sunroof shatter while I’m driving, will it hold up during an accident? This is a safety concern and hazardous. I only have 34000 miles on this car. Multiple people that have/had genesis with panoramic/ moon roofs are/had issues with the same area.”
