Vehicle has physically and forcibly moved both forward and backward, on its own, after being placed in Park and the engine turned off — including after occupants have exited the vehicle. This movement has struck the driver and two minor children on multiple separate occasions, as well as nearby curbs and objects, without physical injury. No warning lamps or dashboard messages appeared before or during these incidents. Because the movement occurs after occupants have exited the vehicle, it is unknown how many additional times this may have occurred unobserved. Dealer states it was unable to duplicate this condition during a test drive. During this same visit, the right front CV axle was found to be leaking grease and had lost lubricant, and required full replacement. Both front horns were also found inoperable/defective due to internal short and were replaced. Neither of these conditions had been previously reported as faulty prior to this visit. Separately, this vehicle has experienced a steering column defect. At approximately 9,000 miles, a steering wheel squeak was reported and a dust cover was replaced. During that same earlier visit, an intermittent loss of acceleration was also reported; the dealer was unable to duplicate this concern and documented the vehicle as “operating as designed.” Weeks after that visit, a knocking noise developed in the steering column. At approximately 10,000 miles, a technician found a structural through-bolt in the steering column not torque

On XXX, I was taking my Genesis GV70 out of the garage, while going reverse the car would not stop, the car’s reverse parking collision-avoidance assist did not work, the car continued by going over my mailbox, crossed the street, went over a cable box, went up the hill and stopped by taking a tree out of the ground. The car was pronounced total loss by Geico. Geico’s claim # XXX. The car is now at Copart, phone # [XXX], [XXX], lot # XXX. I have opened up a case with Genesis to have the car inspected by a professional to find out malfunctioning of the rear collision avoidance assist. I had to pressure Genesis to hire a professional to inspect the car but they are taking an enormous amount of time to get back to me with an explanation.

This supplements my prior complaint, ODI #11751961, for the same vehicle. Following that complaint, an authorized dealer performed front camera and front radar ADAS calibration on 7/21/2026 and returned the vehicle as operating as designed; the manufacturer's representative confirmed in writing on 7/22/2026 that the camera had been within specification. On 7/23/2026, approximately 1:21–1:35 PM, driving in the left lane of a divided parkway with a concrete median barrier, with HDA2 and Lane Following Assist both active and indicating green, the steering wheel turned the vehicle toward the concrete barrier at least seven times, requiring manual correction each time. This occurred both with a lead vehicle approximately 4 seconds ahead and with no vehicle within more than 10 seconds ahead. Earlier the same day, driving the opposite direction with both systems active and green, the vehicle applied hard automatic braking twice with no vehicle within more than 10 seconds ahead (traffic present only in the adjacent lane); I had to manually accelerate because a following vehicle was close behind. My original complaint reported the automatic braking failing to activate; the system now also activates falsely. Additionally, the hands-on-wheel warning repeatedly illuminated while my hands were on the wheel, taking approximately 30 seconds to detect them. I have stopped driving the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified in writing the same day, and a second repair visit is being arranged.

When Highway Driving Assist / Lane Following Assist is active — confirmed by illuminated green HDA and lane assist indicators — the vehicle applies uncommanded steering torque, to the left or to the right, strong enough to force the vehicle out of its lane. This occurred on every drive, daily, from delivery on 7/2/2026 (approximately 23,200 miles) until the vehicle was brought in for service on 7/13/2026. The behavior was identical regardless of lane markings (solid, dotted, or absent) and road geometry (straight or curved), at highway speed and on local roads at approximately 30 mph. On multiple occasions the vehicle was pushed toward highway barriers (concrete median and metal guardrail, on both left and right sides) and into the oncoming traffic lane; avoiding barrier contact or returning from the oncoming lane required forceful manual correction, during which the rear of the vehicle oscillated side to side before directional control was fully regained. This occurred regardless of speed. Separately, the forward collision-avoidance / automatic emergency braking system failed to activate on multiple occasions when approaching stopped or slowing traffic, requiring hard manual braking by the driver. No warning lights displayed. An authorized dealer inspected the vehicle 7/13–7/21/2026: scans found no stored diagnostic trouble codes, road tests did not reproduce the behavior, and the dealer performed front camera and front radar ADAS calibration on 7/21/2026.

On June 8, 2026, while driving home from work and actively entering the freeway, the vehicle experienced a sudden, severe, and catastrophic loss of propulsion. Despite pressing the accelerator, the vehicle completely refused to accelerate beyond 30 mph, forcing me to navigate active highway traffic at a dangerously low speed. This sudden failure to accelerate while merging onto a high-speed interstate created an immediate, life-threatening situation, leaving the vehicle highly vulnerable to a severe rear-end collision. The vehicle was towed to an authorized Genesis dealership on June 9, 2026. Genesis Motor America (GMA) corporate customer service was notified, and Case #42801757 was opened. On June 25, 2026, the dealership stated they performed code scans and test drives but could not replicate the intermittent symptom or find any stored fault codes, declaring the vehicle ready for pickup without identifying or correcting the root cause of this severe defect. When challenged on the phone regarding the severe safety risk of driving a vehicle that unpredictably loses highway propulsion, the service advisor dismissed the life-threatening concern as "hypothetical." On July 3, 2026, GMA Customer Service provided their assessment on Case #42801757, rigidly stating the vehicle is not eligible for Lemon Law relief and instructing me to follow the dealer's advice to pick up the un-repaired car. Genesis is actively using the threat of immediate loaner car charges to force an unsafe veh

Auto Start Stop seemed to have malfunction and shut the car off completely. I had to restart the car in traffic to get going. This happened twice, once going to work and once on a weekend trip to New Jersey. The only thing that's preventing an accident is you have to stop for the auto start feature to even activate.

My 2025 Genesis GV70 stopped accelerating properly. There is a lag when you push on the accelerator pedal and it must be pushed about 75% before it begins to accelerate. When it does accelerate it has much less power than normal. This fault occurs constantly. The car can't accelerate normally at any time now. This is definitely a very serious safety hazard. This behavior has been reproduced by Genesis service personnel. There are no warning lights associated with the problem and no diagnostic codes are signaled. After 24 days the Genesis service personnel have no idea what is wrong.

Lane Departure › WarningCrash
Filed May 13, 2026NY
The vehicle has experienced recurring malfunctions involving the electrical system, driver-assistance/safety systems, transmission, braking system, door access sensors, and starting system. Specific issues include sudden braking events, erratic lane assist steering intervention, transmission slipping and gear slamming, intermittent loss of exterior door sensor function, failure of rear hatch access, repeated no-start conditions, dashboard warning messages, and random activation or malfunction of safety sensors. The vehicle and all affected components remain available for inspection upon request. These failures created significant safety risks to myself and others due to unpredictable braking, steering interference, drivability concerns, and the possibility of becoming stranded during interstate travel and adverse weather conditions. Some issues have been reproduced intermittently and documented through dealership service visits, vehicle logs, photographs, videos, and communications with Genesis Consumer Affairs; however, the dealership has indicated that certain conditions were difficult to duplicate consistently, particularly because many failures occur during wet, cold, snowy, or icy weather conditions not present during inspection periods. The vehicle has been inspected by Genesis dealerships, Genesis Consumer Affairs representatives, towing personnel, and is currently involved in a BBB AUTO LINE case. Prior to several failures, warning symptoms included dashboard alerts,

This happened in an Enterprise rental car. Now I will be fighting against loss of rental and rental damages to car my insurance company provided because of a claim on my personal vehicle. I was driving northbound 270 merging onto westbound 64 in St. Louis, Mo, when the back windshield spontaneously exploded. I thought it was a gunshot, checked my body for damage; none found. Looked in my rear view mirror and saw the entire back windshield was completely cracked.
1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Driver assist systems, including lane keeping assist, forward collision avoidance/braking system, and related exterior sensor systems, are malfunctioning. The lane assist system has taken unintended control of steering, and the braking system has activated without cause. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The vehicle has exhibited unintended braking and steering intervention during normal driving conditions. Most recently, the lane assist system abruptly jerked the steering wheel while passing a side road opening, forcing the vehicle into a curb and causing damage. These unpredictable actions create a high risk of collision, loss of vehicle control, or being struck by other vehicles, especially in active traffic conditions. 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The vehicle was brought to the dealership for inspection; however, the issues were not reproduced during testing. Testing occurred under dry weather conditions, while the malfunctions primarily occur in wet, cold, snowy, or icy conditions. 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? The vehicle has been inspected by an authorized Genesis dealership service department. Genesis Consumer Affairs has been notified and is

I have owed over 100 cars and I truly love the Genesis but the SUV is Totally Unsafe to drive with the cruise control. The cruise control will slam on or firmly apply the breaks for zero reason. You will be driving no one around at all and the breaks come on. I have been almost rear ended several times. This happened the very first day I drove the car on I75. It happens daily that I am on I75 so I now only use the cruise control when there is no traffic. On my way to Lexington it happened 5 times. But now it’s getting worse. This will eventually kill somebody. I have been very nice but once I got tired of waiting for the dealership to do something about it I went to Genesis directly and now the dealership refuses to let me come back due to my complaint. The dealership Genesis of West Knoxville refuses to fix the problem and Genesis told me to go to the BBB. . Well the BBB is not the answer if someone dies due to this very serious situation. PLEASE help before someone dies.

And Genesis even took my advocate away and gave me a new one that I had for months and months and within a few days the

I am writing to formally escalate a serious unresolved issue with my Genesis vehicle and the service experience I have received from Genesis of Huntington. My vehicle has experienced repeated and dangerous malfunctions despite multiple repair attempts. The most concerning issue is that the vehicle suddenly stops functioning properly while driving, accompanied by all dashboard warning lights flashing. In order to continue driving, I have had to turn the vehicle off and restart it. The vehicle has been brought back to the dealership multiple times for the same problem. Each time I was informed that the issue had been repaired and that parts had been replaced. However, the problem continues to occur even after these repairs. One of the most alarming incidents occurred while I was driving from Huntington back to Queens with my wife and newborn child in the car. The vehicle malfunctioned again, forcing me to stop and restart the car while on the road. This situation created a serious safety risk for my family. Additionally, the vehicle has been kept by the dealership for extended periods during repair attempts. As of my most recent interaction, the dealership had the vehicle for nearly two weeks during the third repair attempt for the same issue. Despite this significant amount of time, the problem remains unresolved. Compounding the issue is the lack of communication from the dealership. My attempts to contact the service department and management for updates have often gone unan
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
