Vehicle has severe condensation on both headlights (Driver and Passenger) sides. This issue was addressed before and light were replaced by dealership. This is definitely a design defect that allows condensation to accumulate. This has affected proper light projection which would not be adequate for reasonable visibility during dark hours. The amount of liquid(condensation) could potentially cause an electrical failure or spark in the front part of the vehicle. This issue has been broadly discussed in Genesis Forums with no permanent solution in sight.

What owners say
Moisture issues in headlight assemblies from the factory. That buildup of moisture inside the assemblies is causing visibility issues when the lights are needed.
Moisture in headlamps while driving in the rain. I see this is an issue with many owners of Genesis gv70 .
Been dealing with fogged up headlights from the time I bought my 2022 Genesis gv70 new. I've had at least 4 headlights replaced including recently, June 2025. My warrenty is about up and I was told by the dealership that I would be on my own after this. Problem is obviously not resolved. Lighting is a big safety issue. This should be a recall with a fix in place not a stop gap.
severe condensation in headlights Water build up in headlights can reduce visibility, and cause more electrical issues, malfunctions. Both headlights have been replaced by dealer on separate occasions. My driver side headlight a year and half later is now filled with condensation again. First headlight (driver-side) showed condensation about one year after ownership. The second (passenger side) about eight months later, and now three and a half years later the driver side headlight has condensation again.
Condensation in head lights. Cars been at dealer. I’m told it’s normal for two years driving to work on 2/6/25 snow and sleet. Left light went out. Head light and hi beam. On line says the condensation issue is common on 2022 GV70. How is water and lighting not a recall ? Thankfully I was driving the car and not my daughter
