This is my second GV70 I had a 2024 and now a 2025. They had to buy back my first car due to the exact same issue. I was assured that the new model which I bought a different Hyundai in between the two GV70’s. I have owed over 100 cars and I truly love the Genesis but the SUV is Totally Unsafe to drive with the cruise control. The cruise control will slam on or firmly apply the breaks for zero reason. You will be driving no one around at all and the breaks come on. I have been almost rear ended several times. This happened the very first day I drove the car on I75. It happens daily that I am on I75 so I now only use the cruise control when there is no traffic. On my way to Lexington it happened 5 times. But now it’s getting worse. This will eventually kill somebody. I have been very nice but once I got tired of waiting for the dealership to do something about it I went to Genesis directly and now the dealership refuses to let me come back due to my complaint. The dealership Genesis of West Knoxville refuses to fix the problem and Genesis told me to go to the BBB. . Well the BBB is not the answer if someone dies due to this very serious situation. PLEASE help before someone dies. I have had two different dealerships service department people tell me they seen this before and even my first Genesis rep said this is an issue now they all say they never said it. And Genesis even took my advocate away and gave me a new one that I had for months and months and within a few days the new one said Genesis sees no reason to go any further. Thanks in advance for your help. Ron Garrett 931-303-4882
I started leasing this car brand new in April. The most problematic issue I have encountered is the false emergency breaking when backing up, which has almost gotten me into an accident multiple times. It happens randomly when the car is in reverse and it's never triggered by anything that's actually in the way while backing up. It's like a glitch. And when it break-checks me, it's an intense jolt that scares me every single time, it feels like I ran into a wall. When I have tried to make a quick maneuver to turn around with oncoming traffic, it'll break check me (again for now reason) so I'm stuck, then I have to put the car back into drive, then reverse again, then drive to go. It's not a smooth or safe system at all. This is a major safety issue and I have read about other people complaining about this as well. I have gone to the dealership I purchased the car from in South Bay, and Jason in the service department attempted to turn off all driving assist signals which didn't do anything. Then I took it to Santa Monica Genesis twice and they attempted to turn off all safety features as well, but the false emergency breaking has continued happening.
All of the surround view camera are very out of alignment cause 4 major blind spot in the safety feature
