2022 Genesis GV70 Fuel System Problems

The high-pressure fuel pump failed, resulting in insufficient fuel delivery to the engine. This caused a significant loss of engine output, with the vehicle unable to accelerate beyond approximately 35 mph or stalling around 60 mph and exhibiting very slow acceleration. The lack of adequate power created unsafe driving conditions. I was nearly rear-ended while making a right turn and again while attempting to merge onto the interstate, as the vehicle could not accelerate as expected. There were no warning lights or prior indications of a problem on the dashboard. The issue first occurred on 2/21/2026, and I immediately stopped driving the vehicle. The vehicle has since been inspected by the Charlotte Genesis dealership, which diagnosed a high-pressure fuel pump failure.

The contact owns a 2022 Genesis GV70. The contact stated that while his wife was attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle displayed signs of electrical power, but the vehicle failed to start as expected. The vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a regular occurrence. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V282000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The VIN was included, but parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 19,000.

I received a recall notice stating that Genesis will "replace the low-pressure fuel pump assembly". I scheduled the appointment for the replacement, however, the dealer informed me that they would inspect the fuel pump part number and if the recall applied then they would order the part number and once they receive the part they will call me to schedule a time to make the repair. The recall notice said it applied to my vehicle and that the remedy was to replace the fuel pump so I don't understand why they told me that they had to inspect it first and then order the part before making the recall repair. This only increases the time that my unsafe vehicle is on the road. Of course their inspection indicated that the fuel pump needed to be replaced since I had received the recall notice saying just that.

The contact owns a 2022 Genesis GV70. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed and making a left turn, the vehicle lost motive power and failed to accelerate. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the low-pressure fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 8,500.

While driving my vehicle on multiple circumstances, the vehicle began having acceleration issues. This has happened while merging onto the highways and making turns. When it does this, you literally have to pull off the road because you can’t merge onto the highway at 25 mph without causing an accident. When it starts having acceleration issues, it will lock my speed and shoot my rpm’s to levels where it shouldn’t be, usually between 3-4, sometimes 5-6 while locking my speed between 25-35. It will lock your speed for 10-15 seconds and then it eventually will come to. It does not emit any sensors on the dashboard when it does this. My dealership has had my vehicle before to diagnose this issue, but due to it happening intermittently, it is hard to replicate it because it does not happen every single day. Prior to my dealership picking up my car this last time, it happened 4 times in a week but has happened 3 times since I got it back after they could not replicate the issue.

On a few occasions when stopped. Upon acceleration this vehicle would sputter or stall. On Aug. 29, 2023, while driving on the interstate and attempting to pass on the left lane. My speed was around 70 MPH. This vehicle would not accelerate and stated to come to a complete stop. I was able to pull off the road and restart this vehicle. If I was in the middle lanes. This vehicle would have caused a bad accident. As I drove home this vehicle stalled twice. Attempting to accelerate at a light at an intersection. This vehicle stalled in the middle of the intersection. I again avoided an accident attempting to accelerate and restart the vehicle. I was able to drive this vehicle to the dealership, Aug. 30. Since the dealership would not return my calls. The manager informed me that it was the fuel pump. He also stated that he had other vehicle with this same problem. All the fuel pumps are on back order. Also, the recall several months ago for the seat belts. Those parts are also on back order. In my judgment this vehicle is unsafe to operate. Until this issue is investigated by the government and approved to be safe fot the road.

I was driving 72mph on the Turnpike for about 30 minutes when suddenly I felt the car lose all power. The speed immediately started dropping, the RPM’s were very high. I had my foot on the gas pedal and it would not do anything. It was extremely scary being on highway with no power. I was able to make it to the next exit where I pulled into a gas station and turned the car off. I sat there for a few minutes before restarting it and when I did it seemed to reset the system. I was scared to pull over on the highway in case the vehicle wouldn’t reset and I wouldn’t be able to pull out onto the road. This is the 3rd time this vehicle has lost power. The other two times I had just started the vehicle and when I went to go there was no power. There were no warning lights and engine light that came on any of the times this has happened.

Vehicle constantly chokes and even stalls from lack of fuel delivery

Loss of power. Vehicle went into limp mode after a gutter. Dealer diagnosed bad fuel pump.

The fuel pump failed in the car, it is a known problem by the dealer and there were no warnings prior to failure. The dealer verifies it was the pump and it is currently on backorder. The car broke down in the middle of a major intersection in 100 degree weather with our 1 and 2 year old in the car. It is a major safety concern.

After getting routine maintenance done on 5/29/2023 at Courtesy Hyundai in Tampa, my vehicle stalled numerous times when running the A/C. The compressor kicks on, RPM drops and the car violently jerks before shutting off. The system will only restore if I turn the A/C off. So I assumed the issue was due to the A/C putting pressure on the vehicle. I took it back to the same dealership on 6/6/2023 and they performed a fuel sample and said there was bad gas (high water content) in the tank (even though I only use 93 octane gas from a premium gas station, Shell) and stated the fix action would be to drain the fuel and clean the injectors for $850. I declined because I didn't believe that was truly the problem and wanted a second opinion from a different Genesis dealership. About three weeks later, I was merging on the interstate going 65 miles per hour and the vehicle stalled, lost power and came to an immediate stop. Absolutely nothing worked!!! I almost got hit by multiple vehicles. I waited a few minutes before restarting and the vehicle drove like nothing was wrong. However, this problem continued several times as I was trying to get home. I did notice it was having difficulty accelerating after that. I would say this vehicle randomly stalled in moving traffic more than 10 times in a two month period. I was finally able to get a service appointment with Lakeland Genesis on August 4th. After about a week, I was notified the fuel pump is indeed bad and needs to be replaced, which is what I thought initially. The vehicle has not been repaired yet because the part is on backorder with no ETA. So I'm unsure if replacing the fuel pump is the final fix. We are part of an online GV70 forum and it seems many other owners are going through this same issue. This is extremely dangerous and someone is going to be seriously injured or killed because the vehicle stalls with no warning lights, no alerts, no error codes, no nothing.

During a road trip, the GV70 only having about 5000 miles, a Check Engine light came on. Cause of said warning was fuel injector malfunction. The car still operated normally. Took in to Dealer repair shop after getting back home from road trip and Dealer had car for over 5 weeks to replace a fuel injector chip. Since replacing the chip, no other problems have occurred.
