Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)The first incident I had occurred approximately three weeks ago. I began accelerating from a stop light when I felt something jerk. My car began to slow down and it would not accelerate. The car would not go over 20 mph per hour. This incident was extremely dangerous as I was on a highway that has a speed limit of 55 mph. I brought the car to the Genesis dealership. They diagnosed it as a bad fuel pump. I got the car back 3 weeks later (today 09/13/2023) and drove it about 10 miles before I experienced a similar issue. I was stopped at a red light when the car began to shake. The car would not accelerate over 15 mph. I brought the car back to the dealership to be looked at again. I will know more when they reopen tomorrow. These incidents are extremely dangerous especially on highways. I am scared to drive this car again for fear it will happen on the interstate or when I am unable to pull over. The replaced fuel pump did not fix the issue.
This happened twice before I took the car back to the dealer for service. Both times I was driving the vehicle and it suddenly stops accelerating. The car suddenly comes to a stop. I continued pressing the accelerator and the car continued to quickly slow down to a stop. Both times I was in traffic and could have been rear ended or certainly could have caused an accident. The car is currently at the dealer and they have not called me yet to know what they found. I am a member of the GV70 Facebook group and I have seen many other owners who reported the same issue with their vehicle. It truly is terrifying and obviously a safety risk. Some members of the group stated that they were told it was the fuel pump. Genesis needs to get this issue fixed.
At 65 miles an hour on the interstate, I suddenly lost control of the accelerator and the car immediately began to lose speed. I pulled into the breakdown lane and came to a stop. I put the car in park and attempted to increase the engine speed by pressing on the accelerator. It was only when I jammed my foot to the floor that the engine responded. I then drove the car carefully to a Genesis dealer where I was told that this happens to the GV 70 when it is in Eco mode. The car is now at the dealer who will attempt to fix it, I hope.
The location of the sensors for the forward collision, adaptive cruise control and lane departure are located too low in the front grill. During snow conditions ice and snow cover the sensors and they do not operated properly. I purchased my vehicle in August 2021 and last winter as well as today (December 16, 2022 while driving near Chicago I encountered several instances where the above systems did not work properly. I contacted my local dealer as well as the Genesis Motor Vehicle company. The dealer confirmed they had several similar complaints to mine. I was advised by both the local dealer as well as Genesis Motor company to turn the systems off in snowy conditions. Disconnecting the system results in an unsafe situation. The location of the sensors is too close to the pavement. Genesis needs to correct this design flaw.
