2022 Genesis GV80

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.

This vehicle had been in the shop for over a month due to the emergency brake system freezing up causing my rear wheels to lock up, to smoke and rotors become damaged. Dealership could not find anything wrong as could not duplicate the issue. They did say that the EBS did engage while driving down the interstate at 70+ MPH. No reason why. Not normal! It was returned to me. Then 1 week after getting it back the vehicle started shaking violently when at speeds in excess of 65 for about 30 seconds. The RPM goes from 2 to 4 with difficult acceleration. When it gets back to normal, there is a definite clunk. Do not get any warning lights. Has happened 3 time in less than 2 weeks. Is not safe to drive! It is back at the dealership. Something is wrong with the vehicle. Have a video

Recurrent failures of horn system. Randomly stops working. Dealer keeps replacing horns but unable to locate problem. This is critical safety equipment. It recurrently puts the safety of myself and my family at risk as the time the horn failure is discovered is when we are using it to warn other driver of a hazard(i'm in their blind spot or they are pulling out/making left/making right on red..without adequately clearing right of way.) The horn is something you take for granted until you need it. At this point, dealer's official take is that this is a frequent problem with the Genesis GV80 model and other customers are also affected. The recommendation from genesis corporate to the dealers has been to repeatedly replace the horns when they fail and they will not send an engineer out. sometimes it takes months to get the appointment to get the horn replaced and im driving without one resulting in a multitude of close calls. I'm sure others have been involved in a collision where they could not adequately warn other drivers of their presence. The problem has been confirmed by multiple different dealers and horn replaced repeatedly. The vehicle component has not been inspected by the manufacturer but has been inspected by the dealer on a recurrent basis. Horn has not been sent back to manufacturer for further analysis. No warning lamps illuminated. Recurrently found out the hard way.

On Sat. 9/23/2023 while driving on Rt 78 in New jersey. My vehicle started to hydroplane when i hit a puddle of water during a rainstorm. It recovered and we continued home safely. On Sat. 10/14/2023 while driving on Int. 276 in Penna. My car once again hydroplaned when i drove thru several puddles of water during a rainstorm. Only this time it was more severe and quite frightening. I slowed down to about 30mph, put on my hazard flashers and got in the right lane to continue the trip home safely. I am submitting this complaint to see if there have been any other reported incidents like this involving this particular model vehicle.
