2022 GENESIS GV70 Fuelpropulsion System Problems

Started car. Would not accelerate past 30-40 miles an hour even when I pressed the Gas Pedal to the floor. I pulled over and turned the car off. On restart it seems to be fine. The Genesis GV 70 forum is replete with owners having the same issue. This is a 2022 with less than 25,000 miles on the Odometer. There are not many of these cars on the road and probably many owners are unaware that this seems to be a recurring issue on many of these models. I implore the NHTSA to look into this matter quickly before fatal accidents , if they haven’t occurred already, happen.

The car loses power to accelerate in the middle of driving. I have to stop and turn it off and restart the car, then it will become normal for a little while before the same issue repeats again. It is really scary and can be very dangerous driving on a highway.

I received a recall notice stating that Genesis will "replace the low-pressure fuel pump assembly". I scheduled the appointment for the replacement, however, the dealer informed me that they would inspect the fuel pump part number and if the recall applied then they would order the part number and once they receive the part they will call me to schedule a time to make the repair. The recall notice said it applied to my vehicle and that the remedy was to replace the fuel pump so I don't understand why they told me that they had to inspect it first and then order the part before making the recall repair. This only increases the time that my unsafe vehicle is on the road. Of course their inspection indicated that the fuel pump needed to be replaced since I had received the recall notice saying just that.

There were 3 incidents that have happened within a 2 week period driving this vehicle. 1. Driving in the middle of a 5 lane highway in busy traffic, car shut down. It almost caused a crash with me being hit from the back. 2. I was traveling around a deep curve, car stalled and was almost hit from the back by a transfer truck. was very thankful he could stop in time. I could not proceed to go to the right due to embankment. Very frightening. 3. Approaching a light that turned from red to green, car stalled at the light. It just cut off. It seems as if the company has no intentions on getting this problem fixed because it has almost been 3 months now since the recall. Does it take someone to be killed before they make the change to get these vehicles operable?

While driving my vehicle on multiple circumstances, the vehicle began having acceleration issues. This has happened while merging onto the highways and making turns. When it does this, you literally have to pull off the road because you can’t merge onto the highway at 25 mph without causing an accident. When it starts having acceleration issues, it will lock my speed and shoot my rpm’s to levels where it shouldn’t be, usually between 3-4, sometimes 5-6 while locking my speed between 25-35. It will lock your speed for 10-15 seconds and then it eventually will come to. It does not emit any sensors on the dashboard when it does this. My dealership has had my vehicle before to diagnose this issue, but due to it happening intermittently, it is hard to replicate it because it does not happen every single day. Prior to my dealership picking up my car this...

Random engine stalling creating safety incidents in traffic. Failure to diagnose the problem despite repeated attempts by 2 service depts.The problem became more frequent and severe until the car stalled and could not be restarted. Low pressure fuel pump assembly was replaced and the car is currently okay. This problem has cost me over 6 weeks use of my car and several dangerous traffic incidents.

The first incident I had occurred approximately three weeks ago. I began accelerating from a stop light when I felt something jerk. My car began to slow down and it would not accelerate. The car would not go over 20 mph per hour. This incident was extremely dangerous as I was on a highway that has a speed limit of 55 mph. I brought the car to the Genesis dealership. They diagnosed it as a bad fuel pump. I got the car back 3 weeks later (today 09/13/2023) and drove it about 10 miles before I experienced a similar issue. I was stopped at a red light when the car began to shake. The car would not accelerate over 15 mph. I brought the car back to the dealership to be looked at again. I will know more when they reopen tomorrow. These incidents are extremely dangerous especially on highways....

Three weeks ago while returning to SC from Fl on I95, the engine jolted, stalled momentarily , and would not accelerate to keep up with traffic. I pulled over, turned off the engine, and re-started the engine. It started and sounded normal, as did the car diagnostic screen which showed nothing abnormal. An hour later and engine stalled again ( in traffic) and yet the diagnostic screen continued to show "all normal". Initially I suspected bad gas, but that theory proved wrong when, with a full tank of fresh gas, it stalled and stopped mid-traffic . In all these incidents I was very lucky to not have been hit by distracted driver. The car was towed to my Genesis dealer, and after a perfunctory check they said that using all their diagnostic tools, the car showed ZERO alerts. I refused their answer and insisted that it be test driven by...

On a few occasions when stopped. Upon acceleration this vehicle would sputter or stall. On Aug. 29, 2023, while driving on the interstate and attempting to pass on the left lane. My speed was around 70 MPH. This vehicle would not accelerate and stated to come to a complete stop. I was able to pull off the road and restart this vehicle. If I was in the middle lanes. This vehicle would have caused a bad accident. As I drove home this vehicle stalled twice. Attempting to accelerate at a light at an intersection. This vehicle stalled in the middle of the intersection. I again avoided an accident attempting to accelerate and restart the vehicle. I was able to drive this vehicle to the dealership, Aug. 30. Since the dealership would not return my calls. The manager informed me that it was the fuel pump. He also stated that he...

As I was driving, my vehicle completely stopped in traffic. All vehicle functions became disabled. Even when putting the car in neutral, it would not budge. Had it not been for construction workers helping me, I could have been killed due to the heavy traffic flow.

Just picked up the gv70 from the dealer for stall out issue and TCM replacement. I have taken it 2 times to the dealer for the stalling out issue and since they can't reproduce the issue its a non issue to them. Having a vehicle stall out unexpectedly is not safe. I believe it has to be a fuel issue, have found other owners that have the same issue and it was their fuel pumps. It is currently at the dealer again for this stalling out issue. I cannot upload any documents as they are in the vehicle.

Vehicle came to complete stop on two separate occasions randomly twice in August 2023. (Power stayed on, engine stopped) - (Battery and Engine light came on) As of this point it is uncertain what component failed, but the reports of fuel injector/pump being the source of the problem is so common to the point that it's surprising that there hasn't been a nationwide recall. Right now, it's currently with the dealership service department.

The fuel pump failed in the car, it is a known problem by the dealer and there were no warnings prior to failure. The dealer verifies it was the pump and it is currently on backorder. The car broke down in the middle of a major intersection in 100 degree weather with our 1 and 2 year old in the car. It is a major safety concern.

suddenly stalling and shutting off while driving. No warning. Very dangerous. No parts available

This happened twice before I took the car back to the dealer for service. Both times I was driving the vehicle and it suddenly stops accelerating. The car suddenly comes to a stop. I continued pressing the accelerator and the car continued to quickly slow down to a stop. Both times I was in traffic and could have been rear ended or certainly could have caused an accident. The car is currently at the dealer and they have not called me yet to know what they found. I am a member of the GV70 Facebook group and I have seen many other owners who reported the same issue with their vehicle. It truly is terrifying and obviously a safety risk. Some members of the group stated that they were told it was the fuel pump. Genesis needs to get this issue fixed.

After getting routine maintenance done on 5/29/2023 at Courtesy Hyundai in Tampa, my vehicle stalled numerous times when running the A/C. The compressor kicks on, RPM drops and the car violently jerks before shutting off. The system will only restore if I turn the A/C off. So I assumed the issue was due to the A/C putting pressure on the vehicle. I took it back to the same dealership on 6/6/2023 and they performed a fuel sample and said there was bad gas (high water content) in the tank (even though I only use 93 octane gas from a premium gas station, Shell) and stated the fix action would be to drain the fuel and clean the injectors for $850. I declined because I didn't believe that was truly the problem and wanted a second opinion from a different Genesis dealership. About three weeks later, I was merging on the...

I was driving down the interstate at 70 mph when my gas pedal stopped responding and the car was slowing down. Suddenly the car started beeping at me saying the engine was shut off and I needed to put it into park or neutral immediately. This happened a week prior on a 45 mph road and I was able to restart the car with no issues. This time, my car restarted when I got off the highway but immediately shut down again. It is incredibly dangerous to have a car shut down suddenly especially on a highway.

I was driving 72mph on the Turnpike for about 30 minutes when suddenly I felt the car lose all power. The speed immediately started dropping, the RPM’s were very high. I had my foot on the gas pedal and it would not do anything. It was extremely scary being on highway with no power. I was able to make it to the next exit where I pulled into a gas station and turned the car off. I sat there for a few minutes before restarting it and when I did it seemed to reset the system. I was scared to pull over on the highway in case the vehicle wouldn’t reset and I wouldn’t be able to pull out onto the road. This is the 3rd time this vehicle has lost power. The other two times I had just started the vehicle and when I went to go there was...

Loss of power. Vehicle went into limp mode after a gutter. Dealer diagnosed bad fuel pump.

Vehicle constantly chokes and even stalls from lack of fuel delivery

I have started getting Check limited slip differential pop up on the cluster. This is a known issue and many people have already reported it. There should be a recall on this. Also there are fuel pump issues causing stalling sometimes.

Vehicle lost power while normal driving. This happened multiple times. All dashboard lights turn on, then vehicle shut down/shut off. Had to safely pull over to shift gear into PARK, then restart vehicle. Vehicle acceleration is very poor, the more it does this. Vehicle feels like it’s not being provided fuel. On my app, vehicle show “ALL SYSTEMS NORMAL”. Purchased brand new, only 8500 highway miles.

During a road trip, the GV70 only having about 5000 miles, a Check Engine light came on. Cause of said warning was fuel injector malfunction. The car still operated normally. Took in to Dealer repair shop after getting back home from road trip and Dealer had car for over 5 weeks to replace a fuel injector chip. Since replacing the chip, no other problems have occurred.
