Since the coasting feature on the Genesis GV80 and similar models is inoperative, it could mean that Genesis misrepresented the vehicle’s fuel efficiency and emissions performance. The coasting function is designed to disengage the engine from the drivetrain to improve fuel economy, and because it doesn’t work as advertised, real-world MPG may be lower than stated. This could mislead consumers who purchased the vehicle expecting better efficiency. Additionally, coasting reduces engine load and fuel consumption, meaning that with it disabled, carbon emissions could be higher than what was tested or certified. Since official EPA fuel economy ratings were calculated with the assumption that coasting is active, but in practice, the feature never engages, this could be considered a form of emissions cheating or consumer fraud. Such discrepancies raise regulatory concerns and provide grounds for legal action, including a class-action lawsuit, if buyers were misled into purchasing a vehicle under false claims.

Subject: Complaint Regarding Genesis GV80 Coasting Feature Malfunction in Eco Mode To Whom It May Concern, This complaint is regarding a defect in the Genesis GV80’s Eco Mode, specifically the failure of the vehicle to coast as advertised.

Multiple owners have reported this issue to Genesis dealerships during service visits, yet no fix has been provided. Despite being aware of the problem, Genesis has not issued any software updates, recalls, or technical service bulletins to address the malfunction. This misleading advertising impacts vehicle performance and fuel economy, creating frustration among customers who purchased the vehicle based on these claims. the federal safety agency is urged to investigate this matter and hold Genesis accountable for failing to deliver on its advertised vehicle functionality.

My Genesis is going to get me killed! The dealership has informed me that since it doesn't give them a code, they can't fix the issue. Here is a brief summary of my issue. On 8/2/23, while in the process of a lane change, my vehicle goes into limp mode, and I am almost rear-ended by a large Ford truck! I immediately look at the dash and see it is displaying "Park" and I switch it to "Drive". My vehicle picks up speed, and accident has been avoided. On 8/8, I left my home and went approximately 10 minutes away. I was in the store for about 15 minutes. When I walked up to the vehicle, I noticed that I had to use my key to unlock the door, which wasn't common nor did the side mirrors automatically unfold. Once inside the vehicle, every time I attempted to start the vehicle it would hesitate and turn-off immediately. Eventually I was able to get it started, so I put it in reverse. After moving 2-3 feet, it completely shut down while blocking several parking spots. My vehicle started, but by this time, the vehicle has been inoperable for approximately 45 minutes in 95-degree weather! I then contacted Genesis Roadside Assistance and arranged for the vehicle to be towed to Dick Smith Hyundai in Greenville, SC. 8/26 - My son was approximately an hour away in the vehicle, and it broke down. Since the dealership informed me that it was a battery issue, my son attempted to jump the vehicle off. The vehicle had to be towed. 9/6, I was taking a right out of the parking lot, once I got midway in the road (not completing my turn), I heard a grinding noise, the dash switched to park, and speed rapidly decreased. At the same time, the traffic that was halted by a red light is now rapidly approaching. I informed my daughter to brace herself, as I slowly prayed and rolled to the medium. The technicians has informed me that the vehicle is unsafe to drive. They kept the vehicle a month. I get it this week and it breaks down 4 times. I was almost hit when it broke down between 2 lanes.

Car randomly will cut off at slow speeds and when entering roadways fails to accelerate at a sufficient pace with traffic (can put pedal to floor and doesn't accelerate). Have contacted dealer several times, told earliest available to get in for service is two months and they will not order replacement fuel pump/fuel cell till the car is dropped off, and replacement part takes four to six weeks to be delivered.
