I was driving my 2022 Genesis GV80 on Sunday April 5th, 2026 when the vehicle started to overheat. This is the second incident that happened due to the vehicle overheating. The first time reported was in December 2025 at a cost of $3400 out of pocket. Now I see this recall for a potential fire that can be caused by the manufacturer defect. This is very concerning, since the vehicle has been serviced since I purchased the Genesis as a gift to myself in November 2021. This does not sit well with me, with Genesis being a "Luxury" brand. I believe that I should have my vehicle repurchased by Genesis due to these mechanical manufacturer defects.

Since the coasting feature on the Genesis GV80 and similar models is inoperative, it could mean that Genesis misrepresented the vehicle’s fuel efficiency and emissions performance. The coasting function is designed to disengage the engine from the drivetrain to improve fuel economy, and because it doesn’t work as advertised, real-world MPG may be lower than stated. This could mislead consumers who purchased the vehicle expecting better efficiency. Additionally, coasting reduces engine load and fuel consumption, meaning that with it disabled, carbon emissions could be higher than what was tested or certified. Since official EPA fuel economy ratings were calculated with the assumption that coasting is active, but in practice, the feature never engages, this could be considered a form of emissions cheating or consumer fraud. Such discrepancies raise regulatory concerns and provide grounds for legal action, including a class-action lawsuit, if buyers were misled into purchasing a vehicle under false claims.

In 2 instances power steering doesn’t work and brakes go to the floor (it will stop, but very slowly). I believe pretty much every error code displays when this happens. Here’s some error codes: C165C87, C162387, C164286, C168787, U012300, C17024A, C174281. In addition, the back windshield cleaner sprays till it empties.

I have been driving my car and it will automatically flip to neutral and start blinking all sorts of engine lights. I can sometimes stop the car and restart it, and it will be okay, but it typically takes a few tries. It has happened after I start my car and am in the driveway, when I'm going ~40MPH and when I'm on the interstate going >70MPH. I have an infant and have been in the car with him when this has happened. This is obviously anxiety inducing anytime I get in the car, but even more so when I need to transport him. I have requested a loaner car from multiple Genesis dealerships until they can diagnose and fix it, but most do not have appointments until September and expect me to drive my car until then.

1) This vehicle was taken in for the seatbelt pretensioner issue and was turned away due to 'no replacement parts on hand'. To be clear an appointment was made indicating this is the service needed and the dealer could not complete the work. 2) Additionally this vehicle suffers from a sudden loss of power on the highway. If vehicles are following too closely there could be a serious accident. The failure mode of this condition is triggered by high temperatures 105 to 107 F there is a persistent DTC code P0087000 which indicates inadequate fuel pressure and maybe caused by fuel pump, pressure regulator, or sensor. At least once, when the car cools off the main computer (referred to 'the head unit' by Genesis customer care) can be 'reset', and all DTCs are cleared and Check Engine Light is cleared. Several owners of G70, GV70, and GV80 owners are reporting similar "sudden loss of engine power" on the owners forum.
