Example complaints
Electrical system: “I feel there is a flaw in mechanical and electrical. There is no emergency release from the outside of vehicle to get to the battery. The battery went dead I had to crawl from the front seat.(locks were dead as battery was dead) all the way to the rear hatch to release the lever to open the hatch to get to the battery. There were no outside mechanisms to get to the battery once the battery is dead. How is this safe.”
NHTSA complaint #11625735, filed 2024-11Fuel system: “I was driving and the car just stopped in the middle of the road. I had to turn the car off and restart. Once I did the car wouldn’t get any speed but the RPM would go up to 4 or 5. I finally got the car home and had it towed the next morning. After 9 days in the shop, I was advised it needed a new fuel pump but no ETA on when the car will be repaired.”
NHTSA complaint #11537771, filed 2023-08Other or unknown: “I am the owner of a 2023 Genesis GV80 and have experienced a recurring issue with the vehicle’s windshield. I have owned the vehicle for nearly three years and, in that time, have spent more days driving with a cracked windshield than without. Even the smallest of impacts, such as minor stone chips, immediately expand into large cracks, leaving no opportunity for a standard resin repair through companies like Safelite. …”
NHTSA complaint #11687371, filed 2025-09Transmission and drivetrain: “I am submitting this complaint regarding the handling of a safety recall on my 2023 Genesis GV80. During an approximately seven-week service visit at an authorized Genesis dealership, I was verbally informed that the applicable safety recall had been completed. Based on my subsequent interactions, Genesis Corporate also appeared to believe the recall had been performed. However, the recall was not documented on my repair order and was ultimately completed later by a different authorized Genesis dealership (Genesis of Weatherford). …”
