Example complaints
Electrical system: “I was driving at 65 mph (legal speed limit on Express Lanes) and entire front console went black. I was on Bluetooth call which dropped. I could not see speedometer or any of the gauges on the dashboard and could not see any of the radio/entertainment options. Everything was jet black. I pulled over at the first exit, turned off the engine and restarted the car. The services slowly reloaded and were restored. The next day the console began to blink but did not go out entirely. I went to the closest Genesis dealership and spoke to a technician. …”
