Headlights are defective and the seals give out and allow condensation to build on the inside making the light not function properly and then burn out as the condensation accumulates. Lane keep assist cannot function properly if traffic merges in, has trouble determining the lines and want to over correct as it completes the merge. Also drifts during the merge. Scary.
I had a sudden loss of power when driving and the car would not start back up. It could be due to the current HPFP recall that is active on the car. The Genesis Southfield, MI dealership was informed about my car being a Canadian VIN and they accepted to take my car. So I tow it there for $500 and then they refuse to work on it saying they "are not allowed to do recall campaigns on Canadian VIN". I called Genesis Canada to which they said if the dealership calls them they can send them the foreign work process...

documentation. However the dealership was adamant on not performing the recall and I had to send it to an independent mechanic. Wasting $700 total on tows which they did not even acknowledge. The car is currently getting diagnosed however a manufacturer dealership MUST be responsible for active recalls, especially since my car is registered in the USA. Genesis needs to reimburse me if I have any out of pocket costs due to the recall.

Newnan held it from August 19 to September 4, 2026. Repair order 184931 documents the stalling complaint and reports of misfires on cylinders 2, 4 and 6. It records multiple test drives, inability to duplicate the concern, and no stored or active diagnostic trouble codes at that visit. The vehicle was returned without a repair for this concern. On September 9, 2026, five days after pickup, the same stalling/loss of power recurred. The Genesis diagnostic system reported P0300, P0302, P0304 and P0306 at 67,847 miles immediately afterward. I sent Genesis Consumer Affairs videos and the diagnostic information that day. On September 16 I requested another appointment and a loaner because of the continuing highway stalling. After a September 21 follow-up, the dealer offered late October diagnostics with no rental. Genesis later offered an expedited September 23 appointment; I requested September 24 because of a transportation constraint. The condition remains unresolved as of this report. I request review of this recurring safety concern. Service records, diagnostic screenshots and videos are available. The vehicle can be made available for inspection by arrangement. Precise driving speed and the first occurrence date are UNKNOWN.
