Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)My Genesis is going to get me killed! The dealership has informed me that since it doesn't give them a code, they can't fix the issue. Here is a brief summary of my issue. On 8/2/23, while in the process of a lane change, my vehicle goes into limp mode, and I am almost rear-ended by a large Ford truck! I immediately look at the dash and see it is displaying "Park" and I switch it to "Drive". My vehicle picks up speed, and accident has been avoided. On 8/8, I left my home and went approximately 10 minutes away. I was in the store for about 15 minutes. When I walked up to the vehicle, I noticed that I had to use my key to unlock the door, which wasn't common nor did the side mirrors automatically unfold. Once inside the vehicle, every time I attempted to start the vehicle it would hesitate and turn-off immediately. Eventually I was able to get it started, so I put it in reverse. After moving 2-3 feet, it completely shut down while blocking several parking spots. My vehicle started, but by this time, the vehicle has been inoperable for approximately 45 minutes in 95-degree weather! I then contacted Genesis Roadside Assistance and arranged for the vehicle to be towed to Dick Smith Hyundai in Greenville, SC. 8/26 - My son was approximately an hour away in the vehicle, and it broke down. Since the dealership informed me that it was a battery issue, my son attempted to jump the vehicle off. The vehicle had to be towed. 9/6, I was taking a right out of the parking lot, once I got midway in the road (not completing my turn), I heard a grinding noise, the dash switched to park, and speed rapidly decreased. At the same time, the traffic that was halted by a red light is now rapidly approaching. I informed my daughter to brace herself, as I slowly prayed and rolled to the medium. The technicians has informed me that the vehicle is unsafe to drive. They kept the vehicle a month. I get it this week and it breaks down 4 times. I was almost hit when it broke down between 2 lanes.
The vehicle has an issue stalling while in operation. The vehicle is not safe, especially when the vehicle stalls while operating in traffic. The issue puts many drivers and passengers at risk while operating on a roadway. The vehicle stalled in the following scenarios: entering a freeway, vehicle became unresponsive, but resumed power; entering traffic on an arterial roadway, but resumed power; turning at an intersection on an arterial roadway, vehicle lost power, vehicle became unresponsive and had to coast to a stop to be restarted; driving on a freeway at 70mph, vehicle became unresponsive and had to coast to a stop to be restarted; driving on an arterial roadway at 40mph, where vehicle became unresponsive and had to coast to a stop on a side street to be restarted. Retailer dealership was able to replicate the issue "three times", per the dealership, but did not get an error code or trouble code to fix the issue. On two occasions, dealership refused to address the issue further until a trouble or error code could be found. Dealership refused to keep the vehicle and to provide a loaner vehicle, despite validating that an issue existed with this vehicle and at least four other Genesis GV80 vehicles in Arizona. On August 22, 2022, dealership indicated that they would replace the high pressure fuel pump, which was an issue in the 2021 GV80 that resulted in a recall.
