Hyundai Genesis Coupe grinding brakes problems

I feel like the transition on this car is a safety hazard. It locks you out of second gear at high rpms which could be dangerous in some situations. Also from 5th and 6th gear grind and are hard to actuate. A lot of people are having this problem.

Car has a manual 6 speed transmission which had been replaced twice (once under warranty for 5th gear grind @ 45k miles and again after factory warranty expired with < 30k on new transmission). I had to pay over $2k out of pocket for a new transmission as hyundai would not warranty it. The 6spd manual transmission is an extremely common defect for all genesis coupe models, with many owners needing to replace it more than once and hyundai will not do anything about it.

I bought the car used with 32,500 miles. From day 1 there was a grind going into 5th gear. This was a known problem, but no tsb or recall was ever sent out about it. Just a tsb to change the fluid . At 82,000 miles the 5th gear synchro broke. I had to buy a used transmission from the junk yard and had it installed for $820 total including the transmission, labor and fluid. Why would they claim they have a 10 year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty, when it only covers the first owner. And why would they know about the 5th gear grind and not do anything about it.

Manual transmission grinds when shifting, sometimes the gear doesn't want to go in and you have to force it.. Car has had this issue since the first week I purchased it. Car has 15,000 miles.

Faulty synchros - 6 speed manual transmission. Shifting into 3rd or 4th gear results in a grind 9/10 times. The original transmission has already been replaced once and the brand new oem transmission is having the same symptoms only 12 miles later!

Username - [xxx] location (I.e. City, state) - jacksonville, fl engine/trans/trim - 2014 ultimate manual 3.8 gdi mileage - 32k to what degree is the problem? - everytime I first drive the car the transmission has a grind sound from 2nd to 3rd gear. There is nothing smooth about it. Also when I put it on 1st gear while parked, there is a heavy clunk on the back of the car.

I recently purchased this car with only 35000 miles on it, and the 5th gear had already been grinding. Absolutely ridiculous for a 2011 car to have tranny issues that early on. I then took it to hyundai to get it replaced under warranty and they replaced it. But there are 100s of pages of forums that have the same issue, now with only 43000 miles I can feel 5th starting to grind on upshifts again... I dont know what to do because I dont want to replace a transmission every year.

6-speed manual transmission hard to get into some gears. Grinding noise is heard on upshift from 2nd to 3rd and downshift from 6th to 5th. This is the second transmission the dealer installed. The original one had similar issues when the car was less than a year old and it was replaced by the dealer under warranty.

While driving my 2010 hyundai genesis coupe 3.8l track model, I experience severe problems with the transmission. When shifting from 1st gear to 2nd gear whenever the temperature is below 30 degrees fahrenheit the transmission grinds going into gear. Hyundai USA had a tsb about it, and the transmission fluid was changed under warranty. A week later the problem is still occurring. Hyundai has not been helpful in fixing the problem whatsoever since. When it is very cold, the transmission will not allow me to shift into second gear at all, it'll grind and make noise and block me from shifting. When this happened, I had to quickly depress the clutch and let the car roll back down to a stop. There was a lot of traffic this day and I was almost involved in a collision because of this problem. When approaching highway speeds and shifting into 5th gear, the transmission grinds again. This is usually around 50mph and at around 2600-3000rpms. I have to force the shifter into the 5th gear slot. Should the transmission block me from shifting into 5th, as it does sometimes from 1st-2nd gear, this will certainly result in an accident. Again, hyundai motor USA is not being helpful at resolving this issue. Since the transmission fluid change, hyundai will not approve any other warranty related work.
