CrashUNKNOWN OR OTHER,BACK OVER PREVENTIONAug 2026

UNKNOWN On 1/16/26, I was parked in an underground parking spot. When I moved the gear shift into reverse and lifted my foot from the pedal, the car surged more than expected and the left mirror hit the cement pillar. The dealership advised me to open a claim with a manufacturer so they could review the other ongoing issues as well as the acceleration that caused the accident. A 3rd party engineer reviewed the "black box" and said there was no acceleration issues and the manufacturer is not liable. However, issues have continued until present. Today, 8/5/26, I picked up the vehicle from the service about the continuous warning light that started coming on intermittently 3 days after purchase. They were unable to find any codes from their "factory gds scan tool" The manufacturer wanted a master technician to ride with me so I could show him these issues I have been having. I drove to a road that was on a decline and stopped. I put the car in reverse and lifted my foot off the brake. The car immediately went backward and increased its speed to 7mph and then I put my foot on the brake to maintain control. I shared the information with the General Manager and the Service Manager of the dealership, yet they released the car to me. I then decided to have someone video this specific issue and when I reversed the car went to 8 mph. Despite 9 months of submitting claims and taking the car for service none of these safety concerns have been identified. They "found no dtc's as active, history or pending".

SERVICE BRAKESApr 2026

Brakes failed completely and car rolled down a steep driveway and flipped.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINEMar 2026

My wife and I have both experienced intermittent power loss on the vehicle β€” specifically after stopping and restarting, such as at traffic signals. During these incidents, the car moves extremely slowly even with the accelerator fully pressed, before eventually resuming normal acceleration. This has happened 3–4 times between us, and on one occasion, the car nearly stalled in the middle of an intersection, which was genuinely frightening. I brought the vehicle to Genesis of Charlotte in mid-January 2026 for diagnosis. After multiple checks, the service team was unable to identify any issues and advised me to take the car back. When I asked whether they had checked with Genesis for any known reports of this issue, the service manager told me, "That's not how we work β€” we diagnose by ourselves." I was surprised by this response, as I have since found this issue reported by other GV60 owners online (including on community forums), suggesting it may be a broader, known concern.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMAug 2025

The 12 volt battery does not recharge resulting in the car going dead. All instruments are blank. The car has been in the dealer's service department since April 28 and they not been able to fix the problem.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMApr 2025

The 12 volt battery on the EV car has gone dead twice since I took delivery on the new car in January 2025. When that happens the car is completely dead and must be manually accessed to open the hood and jump start the car. The first time the car would function once jump started. The second time the car would not stay "running" and the battery had to be recharged for the car to function. This problem seems to be the same as the issue that prompted the recall of this car and others in the fall of 2024. It appears that the problem was not corrected in new cars produced.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMMar 2026

On December 1, 2025 the car gave a series of messages on the screen indicating that there was an issue with the electrical system. I was within a mile of home and so drove home because it was operating normally at first. Driving home the car went into a limp mode and could only go very slowly 15-20 mph probably). The car was towed from my house on 12/1/2025. The issue turned out to be a bad Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU). The car was fixed on 12/16/2025. I just wanted to make sure this failure was counted .

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEMMar 2026

On March 1, 2026, while driving at normal roadway speed on a double yellow-lined road, my 2024 Genesis GV60 Advance displayed a "Check Electric Vehicle System" warning. With less than one minute of the warning appearing, the vehicle lost propulsion and rolled to a stop. I was able to steer into a parking lot, but I was stranded miles from home. There was minimal advance warning before complete loss of drive power. The vehicle could not be driven and required towing. The vehicle previously had the ICCU recall campaign marked as complete on January 3, 2025. Despite that prior recall remedy, the vehicle experienced sudden loss of propulsion. The vehicle is currently at the dealership for diagnosis and repair. The dealership has indicated extended diagnostic time and that related parts are on backorder. I am filing this compliant because sudden propulsion loss with little warning presents a significant safety risk to both occupants and surrounding traffic.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMJan 2026

Electrical failure. Car was stuck in neutral on a hill with houses behind. Could not put in park, apply hazard light, or apply emergency brake. Could not exit the car safely due the fact if you took your foot of the brake the car would roll backward down hill uncontrolled. Steering was very stiff or locked so is was impossible to direct car to safe spot at the bottom of the hill. Have video documentation.

POWER TRAIN,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCEDec 2025

During a routine left hand turn at low speed (~10-15MPH), the vehicle engaged emergency braking. The dashboard indicated emergency braking was enabled. There were no objects in the vehicle's path. Acceleration was not possible during the event. Because the braking was unexpected and unintentional, the vehicle behind nearly collided with me.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMNov 2025

Last year there was a recall associated with this vehicle due to the ICCU (Integrated Charging Control Unit). Two visits to the dealership were required to resolve the issue (November and December 2024). My vehicle was running properly until 11/17/25 PM when while freeway driving home I experienced a power failure that prompted me to immediately pull over to check the power circuit. My vehicle lost power, going from 65 mph to the 40's, and later the 20's. I was fortunately able to exit the freeway without incident and limped into a nearby dealership after hours where I left my car for repair. I suspect this may be another issue with the ICCU. I am still waiting on the dealership's diagnostics. I am reporting this incident, as based on internet forums, this issue remains a safety problem for the Genesis GV60. I was very fortunate not to have cars immediately behind me when the power failure occurred. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? - ELECTRICAL How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - I WAS AT RISK FOR A REAR END COLLISION ON THE FREEWAY DUE TO THE ABRUPT LOSS OF POWER Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? - DEALERSHIP IS STILL WORKING ON CAR Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - NO Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? - NO PRIOR WARNING SIGNS

STRUCTUREOct 2025

Chrome trim piece above windshield detached and flew off when traveling at highway speed on freeway.

STRUCTUREJun 2025

The approximately 52-inch-long chrome trim piece that runs the length of the top of the windshield came off while driving. Because this trim piece is at the top of the windshield, and out of the view of the driver, I am uncertain exactly when it came off, but I believe it came off while at freeway speed, and that is why I do not have, or know, the location of the missing trim. A trim piece of this size (approximately 52 inches) coming off my vehicle at freeway speed would have passed over the top of my vehicle and posed a safety hazard to a motorist or motorbike rider behind me. The manufacturer’s authorized dealer confirmed the missing piece and replaced it under warranty. I heard oddly pronounced wind noises before I noticed the trim piece was missing, and I believe, in retrospect, the noise may have been created by the loose trim piece prior to completing dislodging from the vehicle.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING,SERVICE BRAKESMar 2025

Due to regenerative braking, the brake lights dont go on when they should, or they go on when they shuldnt. This is well documented at [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMDec 2024

Frequently, when starting my car, the instrument cluster display is blank. It can take many minutes for it to turn on. This is unsafe as I can’t see speed and other potential alerts.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMDec 2024

The contact owns a 2024 Genesis GV60. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the instrument panel was intermittently darkened, and the contact had to wait several minutes for the instrument panel to return to normal operation. There was no warning light illuminated; however, an unknown error message was intermittently displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken back to the residence. A dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 9,000.

UNKNOWN OR OTHERDec 2024

Steering wheel side Instrument Cluster does not turn on sometimes when starting the car. I will usually turn on after a few minutes, but there is no odometer or other information until it turns on.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMDec 2024

The main cluster display periodically remains black, off or dark. When this happens you are unable to see your speed, lane departure, battery percentage and other vehicle stats. Car has been to the dealer twice for software updates but they have not fixed the problem. Genesis Owner forums state that others within the US have similar problems.

CrashVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCEDec 2024

While I was parking in the lot, the vehicle nearly came to a stop when it abruptly accelerated on its own. My foot was firmly planted on the brake, a standard practice at the end of the parking process. The sudden acceleration made it impossible to regain control, resulting in a collision with the parking lot sign and a small tree. I took decisive action to steer the vehicle away from the glass door of the building in front of me, but it ultimately struck the building wall to my right. This incident highlights serious safety issues, specifically Sudden Unintended Acceleration (SUA) and a failure of the Collision Avoidance Assist safety technology.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMDec 2024

The instrument cluster does not illuminate when car starts. This happens periodically and randomly and there are numerous reports of this on the internet. Surprised this has not been reported here previously.

UNKNOWN OR OTHERJul 2026

A/C compressor not coming on when cabin A/C does. This means it is also not coming on to cool the battery, which could prevent proper battery thermal management, raising safety and performance risks in hot climates. A/C compressor and inverter have been replaced without resolving the issue. It has been to two dealerships that independently diagnosed the problem as the A/C compressor. The car is currently at Allen Turner Genesis in Pensacola, FL so it should be available for inspection. There were no warning lamps illuminated.

The basics

How to read this data

Complaints, recalls, investigations β€” here’s what each number actually tells you about a used Genesis GV60, in plain English.

01

What is an NHTSA Complaint?

An NHTSA safety complaint is a report filed directly by a vehicle owner or driver describing a safety-related issue. Anyone can submit a complaint at NHTSA.gov. The number of complaints is a signal of how common a problem is β€” but complaints per model-year matter more than raw totals, since popular vehicles naturally receive more reports. The Genesis GV60 has 77 complaints on record across 4 model years.

02

What is a Safety Recall?

A safety recall is a mandatory campaign issued by NHTSA when a vehicle component poses an unreasonable risk to safety or does not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standards. Unlike complaints (which are owner-reported), recalls are formally investigated and confirmed by regulators. Manufacturers must fix recalled vehicles free of charge. The Genesis GV60 has 18 recall campaigns in the NHTSA database.

03

What Are Crash Complaints?

Crash complaints are NHTSA filings where the owner indicates a crash occurred as part of the incident. 4 of the Genesis GV60's 77 complaints involved a crash. This metric is particularly important because it indicates how often defects resulted in actual collisions β€” a key safety signal beyond general reliability.

04

How Is the Reliability Verdict Calculated?

The reliability verdict (Average) is generated by analyzing the vehicle's total complaints, recall history, crash complaint ratio, fire complaint ratio, and top component failures relative to class averages. This verdict gives buyers a quick interpretation before they review year-level details and VIN-level history. It should be treated as one decision input, not a substitute for a VIN-specific report.

05

Why Do Newer Years Have Fewer Complaints?

Newer model years appear to have fewer complaints because there has been less time for owners to file them. Complaints accumulate over years of ownership. A 2020 model year vehicle will typically show fewer complaints than a 2015 model year even if it is less reliable β€” simply because fewer owners have had time to report issues. Focus on complaints per year of market presence when comparing across model years.

06

Fleet Data vs. Individual VIN

Everything on this page reflects aggregated data across all Genesis GV60 vehicles on the road β€” not any specific car. Two Genesis GV60 vehicles of the same year can have very different histories: one may have been in three accidents and have an open recall; another may be clean. A VIN check gives you the individual car's history: accidents, title brands, odometer records, service history, and real-time recall status.

07

What Are NHTSA Investigations?

When NHTSA receives a pattern of related safety complaints, it opens a formal investigation. A Preliminary Evaluation (PE) is the first stage β€” NHTSA determines if a safety defect may exist. If evidence is strong, it escalates to an Engineering Analysis (EA), which can result in a mandatory recall. The Genesis GV60 has 0 investigations on record (0 active). Investigations listed above may have already led to the recalls shown on this page.
