“The panoramic sunroof had exploded when I was driving on expressway about 60 MPH. It was a very loud noise and luckily no cars were around. We took exit and found out that part of the roof blown away and the remaining glass shattered. Luckily no injuries as sunroof's shade guard protected us from the bits of glass. I drove slowly to the Hyundai dealer where I leased the car. Even though this Genesis under full warranty, dealer (Hyundai motors) refused to cover this under warranty. I do not understand why this happened. We have not opened the sunroof for a long time. …”
NHTSA complaint #11075424, filed 2018-02, 17,500 miles“Panoramic roof rear panel shattered. Vehicle was slowly transitioning from driveway to road surface over slight depression. Rear sunroof panel began to make popping noises that did not stop when I stopped moving. I got out of the vehicle and when I closed the door the rear panel shattered upwards, spraying glass bits onto me and the ground. Rear panel shattering was mostly contained by shatterproof film installed on the inside after receiving notice that these glass panels are prone to spontaneous implosions. Vehicle is presently at dealer being validated for extended warranty coverage.”
NHTSA complaint #11246500, filed 2019-08, 68,200 miles“I was traveling east on i94 in minneapolis in snowy weather at about 9:30 pm on feb 7.. Temp at 16 degrees. Needed to use the windshield washers. When I turned them on there was no washer fluid but the wipers went on. My windshield became completely obscured. I had to turn on my flashers, stop traffic in that lane in heavy traffic and had a dangerous and hard time getting to the shoulder. Turns out the fluid was frozen. I used snow to clear the windshield. It has now frozen 4 times in cold temps. I have had it freeze at temps as high as 18 degrees. …”
NHTSA complaint #10825044, filed 2016-02, 14,200 miles“The trunk of the car stopped opening with the “open trunk button” from inside the car and also does not work with the key fob option. The trunk now needs to be opened by key from key fob everytime. Water is leaking through the trunk of the car and cause to have mold in the car. An electrical problem with the audio of the car stopped working. The radio or bluetooth no longer works due to the audio no longer working. The driver side front window does not work due to an electrical problem.”
NHTSA complaint #11639788, filed 2025-01“While driving on the highway (70mph) the front sunroof panel unexpectedly exploded raining glass all over the driver and vehicle. Prior to the sunroof exploding there were no signs of it being compromised (dents, scratches, cracks, etc.). Very small shards of glass were impaled into the drivers head and hands. After trying to have the sunroof repaired by two separate Hyundai dealerships who were unable to perform the work, the vehicle had to be repaired by an auto body shop.”
