What owners report
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 âare not allowed to do recall campaigns on Canadian VINâ. I called Genesis Canada to which they said if the dealership calls them they can send them the foreign work process documentation.

I own a 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T Twin-Turbo V6, VIN [XXX], with approximately 122,000 miles. Twice within approximately two weeks, the vehicle has suddenly and unexpectedly experienced a near-total loss of propulsion while being driven. Without warning, the engine begins shaking and sputtering severely, the Check Engine Light illuminates, and the vehicle provides almost no usable acceleration. The engine does not completely stall but operates barely above a stalled condition. After safely stopping, turning the vehicle off, and restarting it, normal engine operation and full power immediately return and the Check Engine Light extinguishes. The vehicle may then operate normally for days before
I had the known reported issue TSB 25-BE-004G repaired and even after repair there is a burning wire smell that the dealer claims they canât replicate. We had the same issue with Genesis Plano initially and after driving the vehicle out of state we were stranded and took it to Genesis of Peoria where the issue was diagnosed. We are encountering the issue again and it is a fire risk hazard.
