Genesis G80 Recall 26V664: Front seat motors can overheat and cause a fire

What this recall means for you

Certain 2015-2016 Genesis and 2017-2020 Genesis G80 vehicles have front power seat motors that may overheat because the power seat control switch can get stuck. The overheating can lead to a fire, either while the vehicle is parked or while it is being driven. A fire increases the risk of injury.

The remedy is still under development, and owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 7, 2026. Hyundai owners can call 1-855-371-9460, and Genesis owners can call 844-340-9741. Hyundai's recall number is 308 and Genesis' is 035G.
