2015 Hyundai Genesis

I BOUGHT GENESIS AT MARCH 24.2015, AND I AM NOT OWNER RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I SOLD THAT CAR. WHEN I BOUGHT CAR, THERE WERE NOISE AT ENGINE AT NEW CAR. AFTER CHEKING THE CAR, HYUNDAI ENGINEER SAID " SHORT BLOCK PROBLEM". IT IS EXACTLY SAME PROBLEM OF SONATA (THETA 2 ENGINE). I THINK GENESIS ENGINE(RHAMDA 3.8) ALSO HAVE PROBLEM. I WILL ATTACH RELATED PAPER. THANK YOU. *TR

A/C, HEATER VENTS LOCATED ON THE BOTTOM (FOOT) FOR DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER ARE ALWAYS STAY OPEN IRREGARDLESS WHAT YOU SELECT. DEALER LOOKED TWICE, NO HELP. SAID THAT'S HOW ALL THE CARS ARE. I HAVE MYSELF CHECKED THE BRAND NEW 2017 GENESIS PARKER ON THE LOT AND IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. YOUR FEET WILL FREEZE AND THERE IS NO WAY TO BLOCK OR CLOSE THE BOTTOM VENTS. ALSO, THE HAPTIC STEERING WHEEL WARNING CAME ON AT AROUND 5K MILES, DEALER LOOKED AT IT ORDER SOME PARTS TO REPLACE THE SENSOR ETC.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE SUN/MOON ROOF ON MY VEHICLE SHATTERED. I HEARD A LOUD BOOM AND THOUGHT I HAD BLOWN A TIRE. A FEW MINUTES LATER I HEARD AIR RUSHING AND A CRACKLING SOUND. I OPENED THE SUN/MOON ROOF COVER AND SAW THE COMPLETE GLASS ROOF WAS SHATTERED. AS I DROVE DOWN THE ROAD FURTHER, GLASS SHARDS FLEW DOWN THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE ONTO THE ROAD BEHIND ME AS WELL AS ONTO THE SUNROOF COVER THAT I HAD CLOSED AFTER I SAW THE SHATTERED ROOF.

PARKED IN PARKING LOT ON SLIGHT UPHILL INCLINE. TOOK PHONE CALL AS I STOPPED AND FORGOT TO PUT IN PARK. AFTER CALL ENDED, HIT "OFF" BUTTON WHICH IS HIDDEN BEHIND STEERING WHEEL. THOUGHT MOTOR WAS "OFF" BUT REALLY ONLY ON "ACC". OPENED DOOR & STARTED TO GET OUT. CAR STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS. ABLE TO GET BACK IN AND PUT FOOT ON BRAKE. CAR ROLLED ABOUT 10 YARDS BEFORE I STOPPED IT. HAPPILY, NOTHING WAS BEHIND THE CAR. THE OPEN DOOR COULD HAVE HIT ME AND SWEPT ME UNDER CAR BUT I WAS ABLE TO AVOID IT AS I GOT BACK IN. NO HARM TO ME OR CAR BUT DANGEROUS SITUATION. REPORTED TO HYUNDAI & THEY SAID THERE WAS NO FIX OTHER THAN TO BE SURE CAR IS IN PARK BEFORE TURNING IT OFF. WITH OLDER CARS WITH A KEY, COULD NOT TAKE KEY OUT OF IGNITION UNLESS CAR WAS IN PARK. BUT WITH KEY FOB AND PUSH BUTTON IGNITION, THAT "FAIL SAFE" IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HYUNDAI GENESIS EQUIPPED WITH HANKOOK VENTUS S1 NOBLE 2 TIRES. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V864000 (TIRES); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE TIRE SIZE AND DOT NUMBER WERE UNKNOWN.

THE AUTO DIMMING FEATURE ON THIS VEHICLE COULD BE A NICE FEATURE IF IT WORKS PROPERLY AS IT WOULD HELP BLINDING DRIVERS ON THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION WHILE KEEPING ME SAFE AS WELL. HERE IS THE PROBLEM. WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY 93 FROM LAS VEGAS TO PHOENIX AZ THE HIGH BEAN ENGAGED DUE TO VERY DARK ROAD CONDITION. HOWEVER THE BACK RED LIGHT OF A VEHICLE ONE MILE AWAY CAUSES THE HIGH BEAN TO DISENGAGED LEAVING ME IN THE DARK AGAIN. WHAT IS EVEN WORSE IS THAT A VEHICLE COMING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD (NOT ON THE SAME ROAD I AM DRIVING ON) I MEAN THE OTHER CONTRARY SIDE. WHENEVER, IT SENSE ANY LIGHT AT ANY DISTANCE VISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE, IT WILL ALSO DISENGAGE THE HIGH BEAN. THIS IS TOTALLY UNNECESSARY AS THE TRANSIT GOING ON THE OTHER DIRECTION IS NOT AFFECTED DUE TO THE LARGE MEDIAN BETWEEN THE 2 ROADS. MY EXPERIENCE IS ON THE ROUTE 93 SO FAR LAS VEGAS TO PHOENIX. THIS CAN SIMPLY BE FIXED BY PROVIDING PROPER ILLUMINATION WHILE ON LOW BEAN MODE OR REGULAR CONDITION AT NIGHT TIME AS THEY HAVE DONE ON THE 2016 MODEL. ON FEB 20, 2016 AROUND 8:30PM WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 93 FROM LAS VEGAS TO PHOENIX AZ I LOST FRONT HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION TWO TIMES AS I WAS TRYING TO MANUALLY SWITCH THE LOW BEAN TO HIGH BEAN AFTER THE HIGH BEAN HAD ENGAGED DUE TO THE DARKNESS AND LACK OF ENOUGH ILLUMINATION; THEN IT DISENGAGED AFTER SENSING EITHER THE REAR READ LIGHT OF A VEHICLE ONE MILE IN FRONT OF ME LEAVING ME IN THE DARK AGAIN. THE OTHER EXAMPLE IS WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE ONE MILE AWAY COMING ON THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD AND FAR AWAY FROM MY SIDE DUE TO THE LARGE MEDIAN BETWEEN ROAD SIDES. FORCING ME TO STOP AND ENDING OFF THE ROAD AND MIRACULOUSLY NOT GOING DOWN THE CLIFF. MY FAMILY AND MY LIFE IS AS IMPORTANT AS THE FAMILY OF THE INCOMING TRAFFIC DRIVERS.
