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

“After enabling the steering assist, last year, we noticed it pulling more aggressively than it did when we first purchased the vehicle. We disabled the feature for several months then enabled it again this week. Today, while my wife and friend were driving the steering/lane assist pulled the wheel aggressively toward the outside lane, causing the car to hydroplane. Luckily my wife was able, after the car spun around 360 degrees several times, to correct enough to stay out of oncoming traffic and ended sideways off the highway, shaken up but no major injuries. …”

“My 2017 Genesis G90 received Safety Recall 018G (NHTSA 24V-107) on December 31, 2024, addressing a starter-solenoid electrical short/fire risk. Around June 7, 2026, I noticed an unusual odor and found the engine-room junction/fuse box extremely hot, with visible heat damage. An independent shop documented melted plastic near the starter relay/junction box, cleaned damaged material, replaced a 200A fuse, and reinstalled the relay kit. It recommended replacing the junction box, which was not done. Around August 7-8, 2026, warning indicators and steering-related problems occurred. …”

NHTSA complaint #11771520, filed 2026-10

“Steering wheel sticks when making left or right turn. Have to manually return the steering wheel back to a straight/neutral position. Extremely dangerous! If you don’t manually align the steering wheel quickly you will lose control, go off road, or hit another vehicle on any turn. Issue is consistent and wide spread problem among their vehicles after further investigation into the brand.”
