Hyundai Genesis Change Vehicle

"camera picture became distorted. Camera was replaced under warrenty"

"camera worked off and on from 2weeks after I bought the car. because the shop could not pinpoint which electronic device was bad they did nothing. warranty replacement march 2015"

"Intermittently does not work. We get black screen with colored distance lines still visible but no image of what is behind us."

"Would not accept CD's. Problem was fixed (CD replaced) by dealer without cost under warranty"

"Does not automatically change CDs after last song is played"

"Screen mounted so in daylight can't read - it is useless. Display too bright at night - distracting -won't dim enough"

"any time the sun in on the screen, you cannot see the image"

"The cursor knob on the console started to fail intermittently before the extended warranty was up, but would not fail for the dealership repair. Of course it stopped working completely after the 100K miles. Therefore I was inevitably forced with always seeing the idiot warning screen all the time. When I finally had it fixed, it cost $1300 for a part that took 5 minutes to replace. Also, the only cable(Hyundai only) I could use for my iPhone music was the iPod one provided, which worked for a while with the $30 adapter, but replacing the actual cord is impossible because it's now obsolete."

"about a quarter of the time, when we turn on the car we cannot activate the GPS, and cannot see out the back camera"

"Navigation / Touch screen display is major issue. System freezes about 10-15% of time. Unclear what causes, and only way to restart is to stop vehicle to reboot system. Freezes in different ways, and super frustrating to lose many functions"

"On startup the Navigation system sometimes but not always would not Boot up and would stay frozen. Eventually the system would become operational"

"The control for all screen functions had to be replaced. Part had to shipped from Korea"

"backup camera works intermittently - sometimes shows what is behind and sometimes goes blank"

"selection menu takes longer to find a song than inserting a CD, loading the CD, & selecting a song from CD, combined"

"I can not programm an address into it We had trouble with the first navigation system and Hyundai replaced the whole system under warranty. Now we have this problem but we have no longer the warranty for that. Fixing it we were told would cost $2200. !"

"the nvg system went blank. I took the auto to a hyundai dealer & the professional rpairman said he thinks the fuse controlling the nvg imply somehow came loos & mid exam it came back on!!"

"The entire GPS,Radio,Bluetooth/phone interface system failed == replaced twice. first time dealer ordered wrong part"

"When the in dash system failed to boot up, the navigation system would not operate and a blank screen would appear"

"The navigation system tells you the distances to the next few exits. As the closest exit was approaching the distance to that was accurate but the distance to the next few exits was no longer calculated until it, in fact, was the next exit"

"warranty- map update-THREE hours. $300 dollars & THREE hours for each update requested. I mounted my Garmin on the windshield. Life time updates $89!!"

"The charge to update the GPS (over $1,000) in not realistic. I am in the process of purchasing a new car and that will be one feature that will help form my decision. May not buy a new Genesis."

"Several people could not mate phone with blue tooth - so no voice commands or addresses"

"Bluetooth pairing is a major disappointment. When paired system is OK. However, the success rate is maybe 70%. Pairing sometimes happens when nearing vehicle, and will "hijack" phone calls"

"They have changed out the head unit three times since we purchased this car because of phone issues with car"

"The phone pairing stopped working for a short period after it was originally set up. We set it up again and it appears to be working fine now"

"I'm 55 years old, and this Lexicon system's AM/FM radio reception is the worst of ALL vehicles I've ever owned (approximately 8-10). But.....the XM reception, if I would have so chosen to subscribe to, is excellent!"

"Radio will occasionally go on when the car is started. (Then takes two pushes of the on-off button to turn off.)"

"AM/FM reception is the worst of any of many previous vehicles driven. Radio selector doesn't work any more and stuck on idiot warning screen"

"I have had several instances where the sound system in totality seemingly goes dead. No sound is heard from the entertainment system, nav system satellite radio. Was told may the dealer that the system is a windows ce operating system, which I'm told can crash stopping all sound from the car speakers. So far, disconnecting the battery has resolved the issue when it happens. It's a known bug that Hyundai has extended the warranty for"

"A lot of static on number of stations. Service compares them to other similar radios to determine if there is a difference. To me it is comparing a defective item to another defective item"

"Volume knob has broken three different times. It is made from cheap plastic"

"volume shut off while I was adjusting phone blue tooth and came back on two hours later after I turned car off and on a few times"

"Worst AM/FM reception of all car radios I've heard. XM reception is perfect"

"twice would not come on"

"The system will freeze and radio and XM will not work at all. Many times the radio and XM crackle with the sound"

"Absolutely absurd that the dealer wants to charge $1,000 to update the maps module. It is now very much out of date. At the overall price, the update should be a simple matter for them to update when I am in for routine maintenance. Better still do it over the airwaves. This will be the main reason that I will likely look to another brand for my next car purchase."

"Many times does not respond and many times is unable to recognized the command"

"The automatic cruise control distance feature wouldn't engage; therefore, the whole system didn't function"

"Smart cruise would not stay on"

"rear light was subj of a recall. It was fixed @ dealer during maintenance visit."

"blinker light and lock on rear door"

"Recall for bad brake light switch which could cause the brake lights to not work"

"Defective diode in taillight system"

"brake lights go out"

"Headlights often would go out for a few seconds when using the turn signal"

"light control switch on left steering pillar would malfunction during dimming and headlights would go completely dark"

"lights will go off when turning. not all of the time"

"Adaptive Headlights can flicker off when using turn signal while in the turn itself. Need to have turn signal stalk replaced (as I understand it) to resolve the issue"

"When using turn signal, headlites woud occasionally & momentarily go out. Switg as'y replaced.-Problem resolved"

"automatic headlights would turn off when signaling a lane change"

"The preset seat adjustment in position #2 only returns about 3" which makes it difficult to enter because my short wife uses #2 and I can't fit because it's too tight. I have to manually move the seat back"

"Drivers seat heater no longer works"

"INTERIOR DASHBOARD LIGHTS BLINK ON/OFF WITH NO APPARENT FREQUENCY"

"Car would have it's trunk open and run the battery down because the dash indicator light and trunk light would be on-trunk was mistakenly (accidentaly?) opened by the key fob (I assume)."

"Two electric door lock actuators failed"

"Key FOB stopped working even after battery was replaced"

"Factory key FOB stops working intermittently. Have replaced batteries in both and it still won't work occasionally. We have to take the key out of the FOB and open and start the vehicle manually. This does not happen very often, but it does happen."

"too sensitive, have to go in for a 0ne psi out of spec condition regularly"

"The USB doesn't produce enough voltage to recharge my cell phone"

"Received a recall on the brake light system that and was told a $1500 part had failed that was not covered by the warranty or recall. My local dealer convinced Hyundai to replace it so only costs were labor"

"Had brake pedal on 4 occasions in one day, once the next day,, go ALMOST to floor. ABS valve replaced. No problem since. Service unable to duplicate problem prior to repair"

"It seems the factory put the wrong brake fluid in during manufacture. It was a corrosive and over time (after warranty expired) ate through the metal. ABS system had to be replaced. Dealer offered to pay cost of new brake fluid. Cost of replacing the ABS system $2000."

"It was leaking oil. The brain of the braking system was also faulty and had to be replaced. Hyundai provided that at no charge!"

"Experienced failure of the Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit causing brakes to not work. However, even though car was out of warranty (5 1/2 years old and 67,000+ miles), Hyundai covered the HECU part and labor to repair"

"Premature wear from an unkown source. The back wheels locked up / chattered and when this happened I called for a tow"

"Jan, 10 2020, parking break locked up, car could not be driven. The part had to be ordered and it took one week to be fixed. They replaced the computer system which controlled the parking brake. It cost us $2900. So far the car is running well."

"backup camera failed quite some time ago just as car came out of warranty"

"Brakes seemed to suddenly shudder and vibrate big time when slowing from highway speeds. Was just after having tires rotated. Took it back to dealer thinking the tire change had caused problem. Had to pay over $1,000 for repairs. Did it at a private shop not the dealer, very frustrated with service from Hyundai."

"Hold feature damaged the rotors when it was engaged. The garage said that this had happened to other Genesises. I am not using the Hold feature because it caused an expensive repair to the brakes."

"brake sqeak rev. and clunk noise rev. to fwd gear"
