The contact owns a 2019 Genesis G70. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing starting issues. Additionally, while driving 15-20 MPH and coming to a stop, the vehicle stalled and lost motive power. The vehicle was turned off and restarted and was able to drive to the intended destination. The contact stated that the failure recurred and progressively worsened. While researching the failure online, the contact discovered that the failure was a common issue. The vehicle was initially taken to the dealer, where an unknown software update was performed, and the check engine warning light illuminated during the failure. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the fuel pump had failed and needed to be replaced; however, it was determined that the failure was not covered under warranty because a specific DTC indicating that the fuel mixture was too rich was not retrieved. The manufacturer, Genesis, was notified of the failure by phone, filed a case, and scheduled a service appointment with a dealer for the contact. The failure mileage was approximately 35,000.

I own a 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T Twin-Turbo V6, VIN [XXX], with approximately 122,000 miles. Twice within approximately two weeks, the vehicle has suddenly and unexpectedly experienced a near-total loss of propulsion while being driven. Without warning, the engine begins shaking and sputtering severely, the Check Engine Light illuminates, and the vehicle provides almost no usable acceleration. The engine does not completely stall but operates barely above a stalled condition. After safely stopping, turning the vehicle off, and restarting it, normal engine operation and full power immediately return and the Check Engine Light extinguishes. The vehicle may then operate normally for days before the condition occurs again without warning. This creates a serious safety hazard because the failure could occur while traveling at highway speeds, merging, changing lanes, or crossing traffic. A sudden near-total loss of propulsion under those circumstances could result in a serious or fatal collision. I have found reports from other Genesis G70 owners describing substantially similar intermittent loss-of-power conditions that temporarily resolve after an ignition restart. Genesis has also issued safety recalls involving G70 powertrain-related conditions, including NHTSA Campaigns 24V-528 and 24V-191. I have formally notified Genesis Motor America in writing and requested immediate investigation and repair. I am submitting this complaint so NHTSA has an independent record of this recurring and potentially dangerous loss-of-propulsion condition and can determine whether it represents a broader safety defect affecting Genesis G70 vehicles.

Vehicle is currently disabled due to Open Recall Campaign #262/023G (NHTSA Recall Number 24V528000) for High-Pressure Fuel Pump Failure. On 05/19/2026, the vehicle suffered total loss of drive power at highway speeds (Hwy 16/211), creating an immediate hazard. The manufacturer failed to provide a timely remedy, initially misdirecting me to a dealer unable to service the model. Genesis and the local dealer now refuse to provide a courtesy tow to an authorized facility, despite the vehicle being disabled by their own safety defect. The vehicle has been stranded and unrepaired for over a month. This leaves my son at risk, as he must walk along dangerous highways during Extreme Heat Advisories while managing a spinal injury. The impact of being without a reliable, functioning vehicle at this address is not merely an inconvenience—it is a critical safety issue. We reside in a remote area where even emergency responders (EMS) have been unable to locate our entrance when responding to a recent medical emergency involving a hiatal hernia. Being without a vehicle that can reliably transport us or navigate to a main road is not a sustainable or safe position, and by refusing to remedy this recall defect, Genesis is directly contributing to this hazardous environment. I have explained this entire situation with Genesis Escalation without a resolution The safety hazard is compounded by the lack of local transportation. My son has been forced to walk along the shoulder of Highway 16 to get to work. He was recently stopped by a Texas Highway Patrol officer who checked his ID and expressed significant concern for his safety, warning him of the extreme danger of walking on that highway shoulder. While no citation was issued—as the officer recognized this is his only way to get to work—the incident confirms that the location is objectively unsafe for pedestrians.

UNINTENDED VEHICLE MOVEMENT AT STARTUP - POTENTIAL CLUTCH DEFECT On January 17, 2026, at approximately 1:59 PM, I started my 2019 Genesis G70 (manual transmission) while parked in my garage. The vehicle was in Neutral with the parking brake engaged. I depressed the clutch pedal fully before pressing the start button, with no foot on the accelerator. Immediately upon starting, the vehicle lurched backward at significant speed without any driver input to accelerator, gear shift, or parking brake release. I attempted to stop the motion by pressing the brake pedal firmly but the vehicle continued moving. The vehicle struck the garage door frame (bending the driver's door backward), nearly pinning my [XXX] son between the door and garage structure. The car continued across my driveway, struck my neighbor's parked Lexus RX 350, then crashed into the neighbor's garage door and siding. RELEVANT PRIOR HISTORY: - February 7, 2025: Genesis authorized clutch/transmission repair at Rick Case Genesis dealership - February 27, 2025: Dealership stated car was ready, but upon arrival, technician could not release vehicle because it would "not shift gears" or "move" - March 5, 2025: Vehicle released; clutch engagement point was unusually high - December 2025: Clutch pedal required full depression to shift reliably - January 2026: Difficulty shifting in cold weather unless car was warmed up POST-INCIDENT OBSERVATIONS: - Clutch engagement point was on the floor (abnormally low) - No dashboard warning lights appeared before or during incident - Backup camera did not activate - EDR data (downloaded by Genesis March 5, 2026) confirms 0% accelerator pedal and 0% engine throttle throughout the event INJURIES: Minor (skin abrasion to my toe). My son was nearly pinned but not injured. PROPERTY DAMAGE: My vehicle (door/frame), neighbor's vehicle, neighbor's garage door and siding. MANUFACTURER RESPONSE: Genesis Case XXX opened.
