Forward collision warning and active assist are practically inoperable. The vehicle doesn't detect the car in front of it and doesn't show it on display. The operation doesn't match the described function in the owner's manual. After trying to work with Genesis Corporate office and dealer, I could replicate the problem during the test drive that was conducted after dealer performed extensive diagnostics together with Genesis tech support. System didn't return any fault codes. Dealer documented the issue in the service record. During the test drive, the WARNING system finally activated when collision would have been imminent only prevented from the accident by the technician driving by slamming on the brakes. The emergency braking system didn't activate at all. I drove various loaner cars being Genesis 2023 models that all exhibited the same behavior. According to the manual the system should be active at the speeds 6 miles per hour or above. I can get very close to the car in front of me and nothing would happen. It only affects normal driving. Adaptive cruise control works fine and sees the vehicle in front of me with no issues

The newly purchased vehicle experienced a seat malfunction, leading to its return the next day. The seat was unresponsive, failing to adjust forward or backward when entering or exiting the vehicle. Upon inspection by the service department, the problem was attributed to the seat module. Despite replacing the seat module twice, the issue persists. The problem has been confirmed by the dealer's service department, and attempts to rectify it with seat module replacements have been unsuccessful so far. No other inspections by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives have taken place. No warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms were present before the failure occurred. The problem was identified during routine vehicle use, without any prior indicators of impending malfunction.

Car engine stalled multiple times after a stop. Once car did that right after light turned green and I tried to accelerate. Almost causing accident by getting hit by behind. Also did it in parking lot, what happens the gages stop showing information and only the miles driven on the bottom left.

Dropped off vehicle in dealer today for repair, they mentioned prior year models issue was related to fuel pump. No warning lamps or system failure notification, just some information on dash going away for a bit.

I purchased GV80 in Genesis of Cumming, GA in May 6, 10:00AM, on the same day, while driving on the highway returning home, low tire pressure warning was poped up in the center cluster, then right after rear-driver side tire unexpectedly ripped off from the rim, causing me to lose control of the car and almost causing a serious accident. No symptoms recognized before incident while I drive on the flat road. Anyway, fortunately I could make the vehicle stopped without any minor collision and body injuries except rim damage and paint peel off on the rear bumper. After parking in a safe place, looking at the other tires and saw a damaged tire is on front the driver's side. (Rim is clean) In this case, the dealer who delivered the vehicle to the customer without inspection is also a problem, but it is the fault of the car manufacturer that manufactured the defective vehicle and sold it without quality inspection. All vehicles in stock must be inspected for all tires and taken over by the customer for safe riding.

Electrical System

In rare circumstances, the user may be able to initiate navigation using the built-in infotainment system while the vehicle is already in motion. Other safeguards already exist within the Genesis maps system to prevent the driver from starting navigation while driving. This software issue should be corrected.
