Warning: Don’t do the Recall Service on G70 and G80 NAVI SW UPD (19-01-44G,19-01-45G)

[James Walters]

I was in for my 18K maintenance on my G70 today and my service advisor warned me not to get this Recall because it already "fried 2 systems."


Recall Services:
G70&G80 NAVI SW UPD(19-01-44G,19-01-45G)
• T11G -

Edit: the title to include the update version.

What was the recall for?

 

[James Walters]

Dunno, the only info I had was in an email I got in my original post. I actually downloaded the MapCare update myself and was going to do the update myself a few nights before I saw the recall. Glad i didn't....

FWIW, we've done a bunch of them without issue.

Yep, understood.

Maybe I can update my OP to include the version now to avoid. I'll do it now.
Just wanted to give a heads up.

I love my G70.

Hmm....I think the service advisor mentioned something about it to me, last week. I'll be there around noon and I'll ask.

I got my update SD about a month ago, but haven't had an opportunity to load it yet (no long trips). I think I'll hold off until there's a resolution of this potential issue...
Enjoy,

You refer to this as recall. What was recalled? Do you mean updated?

My dealer said it was a recall service.

My dealer said it was a recall service.

Thanks. Your dealer makes no sense. Maybe that is why they fried two systems.

There are no recalls for the G70 that I can find..... 2019 GENESIS G70

I see ZERO recalls on my G70 when I go to the Owners.Genesis site also...

If it's just the map/infotainment it's pretty hard to screw up...

looks like the newest map update and the dealer tech can't follow directions, probably did not start the car like he is supposed to, left it in ACC mode and it timed out and turned off the vehicle during the load.

I had a routine service Monday 01/06/2020. I was unaware of the "recall" After waiting considerably longer than usual I asked about the car and was told there was a "recall" on the Nav.
While I can at a glance see some new "features" I'm unaware of an actual change list to learn what's new.
Since the update, my radio screen no longer switches to maps at the normal 10 second time. It stays on the XM screen. I've tried changing it to anything else, but the results are the same. It does nothing. A small enough feature, true, but one I enjoyed and want back.
Is the reference number (19-01-44G) a date? i.e. January'19, if so why was it just installed?

I had my navigation updated last Monday to version NAM.12.47.44.510.105.4 while they did my scheduled maintenance. No issues here...
