Hyundai Genesis Reliability through December 31, 2012
General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| Oct | 2008 | 2000 | 23 | While at the dealer for an oil change (I like to get the first oil change early) I mentioned the voice control problem. The Tech looked at it and said it was fine. After a brief discussion I left the shop only to find that it no longer functioned. ... |
| Apr | 2009 | 6000 | 0 | Genesis was returned for a reoccurring problem with the voice command system. Dealer did a number of firmware upgrades, but problem returned a few days later. Dealer currently working with the factory to find a solution. |
| May | 2009 | 7000 | 0 | After a number of visits to the dealer, the factory has decided to install a new radio/navigation system. The part has been ordered, but because of availability no date has been set for delivery/installation. |
| Jun | 2009 | 8000 | 0 | After waiting two weeks, went to dealer to ask status and was told they are waiting for a remanufactured radio. This implies that there are inherenet problems. Still waiting. |
| Jul | 2009 | 9000 | 0 | Radio was replaced, but not enough time has passed to be sure the problem is resolved. However, I remain optimistic that the replacement will solve the voice command problem. |
| Aug | 2009 | 10000 | 50 | My Genesis supposedly had the radio replaced, but after two weeks the problem resurfaced. Dealer states that they have no idea what to do and that I should talk to the Factory Rep. I will follow-up at some point. Appears they cannot fix the problem. |
| Dec | 2009 | 13000 | 0 | Replaced Sub-Woofer to fix speaker rattle, problem fixed. Also replaced Bluetooth/DVD head to resolve voice command problem. New DVD unit does not perform correctly and the voice command problem persists. Scheduled to replace DIS control. |
| Feb | 2010 | 14300 | 0 | DIS unit was replaced, but did not resolve the problem. Decided to stop pursuing a solution since the lease will expire in a few months. Hyundai did not seem to have the expertise to fix the problem, unfortunately. |
