A mess

A mess. The blackout package was a disaster and not what I was promised. 6000 down the drain and unhappy within 10 days of spending 70k for this car. Otherwise it’s a good car and looks good as long as you don’t look at the front of the car. Embarrassed

2021 g80 survey

This is our third genesis. We replaced a 2015 genesis G 80 with the 2021. The construction of the vehicle is very poor. The excess cracking noise of the sunroof makes it almost unbearable to drive. We’ve also had two separate instances where the sensors have failed and the dashboard lights have illuminated numerous different warning signs. This is the second time this is happened. We have had the vehicle in for repairs with very little long-term success. This is why the vehicle rating is so low. I believe the construction quality is very very poor.

ENGINE FAILED AND GENESIS IGNORED ME

My engine failed at 11000 miles. Despite many attempts to get Genesis to help, they were completely nonresponsive when I kept asking and contacting my case manager. The dealership I purchased from was non responsive too. I am at a loss to understand why this company would not respond. Just incredibly frustrating.

Engine failure; Genesis non responsive

My engine failed at 11000 miles. Genesis corporate assigned a case manager to me and that person was completely non responsive. I will never understand how a company that manufactures a car like this could refuse to stand behind it or even respond to the owner who has experienced an incident like this.

Poor Dealership experience

Title says it all. Terrible dealership experience. An overwhelming majority of reviews I’ve read since purchasing my G80 have referenced poor dealership experiences. I have people stop and ask me about my G80 almost every week, I tell them I love the car but would never buy a new Genesis from the dealership unless you like being insulted.

Problems from the start

Very dissatisfied. I had problems from the start . The number 6 fuel injector went out with only 345 miles on the car . Wanted to remain a Genesis customer and asked to trade it in but got no assistance with that. I feel like they stuck me with a car that was brand new with problems.

Beautiful but disappointing

Although beautiful inside and out, the mileage is disappointing, reliability is an issue and ongoing concern, using controls while driving can be too distracting. Overall, disappointed in this vehicle and considering replacing it after only a year of ownership.

Disappointment is an understatement

see previous survey. By comparison to my prior two G80's (actually one was a Hyundai Genesis 2015 same thin as G80) this car is a poor replacement. It has less, performance, less gas mileage, less safe and poor build quality and questionable future reliability. In addition it costs more. It is beautiful but it's beauty is only skin deep.

Poor Dealership Experiance

I have owned or leased 4 Genesis vehicles. The cars have been incredible. Certainly one of the best values I have seen. Price is better than the competitors and styling is superior. However the Arapahoe Dealership in Colorado has been dissatisfactory. The finance department charged and sold me an additional warranty but did not send the money to the warranty company. They refuse to honor my warranty. Have made promises they don't keep and wont return my calls. It has now been 1 year and I am without warranty without a resolution. Dealership did not stand by its word, documents or promises.

My vehicle was turned in to your dealership to replace the front panoramic roof glass and for creaking/cracking noise in the rear cabin area.

My vehicle was turned in to your dealership to replace the front panoramic roof glass and for creaking/cracking noise in the rear cabin area. These problems were initially identified in Nov 2, 2021. The panoramic roof glass was successfully replaced Feb 17, 2022 (thanks). However, the noise problem was not taken care of. I addressed to recurring problem with the service department representatives and am still waiting for resolution. It is disappointing to say the lease, with no resolution in sight and I am still making monthly payments for a vehicle that supposed to be high quality/end, but instead is producing noises in the rear cabin area as if it were a low-end vehicle. In Nov 2021, the service manager allowed a technician to ride in the car with me to identify the noise in the cabin area. Did the same technician drive my care and did not hear the noise? I live in Crestview Florida and the day I pick up my vehicle from your dealership and every time I drive my car, I hear the creaking/cracking noise in the rear cabin area and really would like for this problem to be resolved or please class this vehicle as a lemon and replace or buy this vehicle back from me. I purchased this vehicle in Aug of 2021 in good faith and now cannot get a problem resolved that I did not cause...this is not good customer service or care! Why am I making monthly payments on a supposedly high-end vehicle with a problem of this nature? It may sound minor, but to me it is a problem...it is annoying and could be unsafe, since the cause of the broken panoramic glass was not identified, at lease it was not communicated to me. Who knows, the noise in the rear cabin area could be an indication of stress on some parts that are not seated properly and therefore damaged the glass.

Panoramic Sunroof Noise

Very nice car. Technology, styling and performance are outstanding. All of this is spoiled by a noisy, creaky panoramic sunroof. It snaps and pops over bumps and when driven up any incline that applied torque to the car body. Genesis needs to resolve this issue if they want to be a player in the luxury car arena.

Beautiful but quality suspect

Great styling. Car flexes and glass roof structure pops and shifts. Pretty expensive car for this level of flaw. Very dissatisfied. And a text minimum character requirement is inconvenient. Whoever required this doesn’t understand customer experience. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I LIKE THE CAR BUT THE SERVICE HAS BEEN HORRIBLE.

I LIKE THE CAR BUT THE SERVICE HAS BEEN HORRIBLE. IT'S SO HARD TO GET AN APPOINTMENT. I'VE LEFT MANY MESSAGES AND NO ONE CALLS BACK. THE DEALERSHIP CANCELLED AN APPOINTMENT WITHOUT ANY EXPLANATION. I DRIVE OVER AN HOUR TO GET TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS. I'VE COMPLETED NUMEROUS SURVEYS AND NOBODY EVER RESPONDS.

My Genesis

My new Genesis G80 has everything I need and more, It is worth the money and the Dealership is close to where I live. I'm looking forward to the next generation of Genesis, so that I can continue on with this great experience. I hope my son will join in also.

Almost perfect

We really love our new G80. Just a few tweaks and improvements on the dealer experience and it'll be better than the Germans. Excellent styling, good performance. Mediocre gas mileage though. A hybrid or electric would definitely be welcome especially since Genesis claims to be pushing technology. But overall a great car.

G80

Seat and leg comfort could be better. Getting in and out of car somewhat difficult. Gas mileage dissapointing. Have not gotten 30 mpg as of yet. Love the exterior styling and overall exterior appearance . Wheel locks did not come standard with purchase

Gorgeous Car!

The exterior and interior finishes are beautiful; lines are gorgeous; interior is roomy and very comfortable; six footers can ride easily in rear seat. Trunk has room for 2 sets of golf clubs and a suitcase plus a pass through for skis, etc. Lots of tech, maybe too much. So far disappointed in fuel economy compared to my last Genesis G80 but hope this will improve (only 900 miles so far).

annoying survey

Car has good pickup. I am forced to write about the car or the survey is incomplete. I though you really wanted to know what I thought of my car but all you wanted was an endorsement. This has taken more time than I have but I wanted you to know about the problems that the vehicle presents
