2015 Hyundai Genesis Engine Problems

“I was driving northbound on I-295 in washington, dc when my check engine light illuminated and the car began to slow down in extremely heavy traffic and I lost the ability to accelerate. I attempted to accelerate in order to get my vehicle off the busy highway and to a safer location, but I was not able to go more than a few meters. It was fortunate that I was not seriously hurt or killed. …”

“I bought Genesis at march 24, 2015, and I am not owner right now because I sold that car. When I bought car, there were noise at engine at new car. After checking the car, Hyundai engineer said short block problem . It is exactly same problem of sonata (theta 2 engine). I think Genesis engine(rhamda 3.8) also have problem. I will attach related paper. Thank you.”

“This is an ongoing safety issue that I've tried to get the dealership to address. From a stop or slow idle, the engine exhibits acceleration hesitation. This hesitation lasts up to 2 seconds and when trying to merge into traffic has nearly resulted in accidents numerous times. I believe a Hyundai whistle-blower came forward recently to expose this ongoing issue but Hyundai has yet to address it.”

“The car cut off on my twice different days while I was driving on one of the freeway once while turning into my drivingway 3rd I tried to start my car this morning started less than a mili second and would not turned back on”

“The vehicle briefly shut down on its own for no apparent reason while in motion at rate of 25mph at nighttime, the vehicle turned back on a second later as if nothing happened. The cause of the shut down is unknown and could have caused an accident had I not been on an empty road. While the vehicle was off, I had no control over power steering or accelerating, the entire vehicle became unresponsive with the both the entire instrument panel and exterior lights off.”
